# Share of Search

## See how your brand stacks up against the competition – straight from search data

**Share of Search shows how much of the brand searches in your category go to your brand.**
Track your search share, category demand and competitors’ moves in a single view in aktio. We build the reports for you and help you turn the data into decisions.

## What is Share of Search?

**Search share reacts to change faster than traditional market share figures.**

Share of Search is your brand’s share of all brand searches in your category. When more people search for your brand by name, it signals growing interest before the change shows up in your sales. That makes search share a good leading indicator of your marketing impact.

The data is based on Google’s monthly search volumes, so you can see how your brand and your competitors have developed over up to four years.

## All your markets in one report

**Track each market in its own language and compare countries in one report.**

Every market has its own brands and keywords. The total share is weighted by search volume, so a large market counts for more than a small one. A comparison with worldwide searches shows whether your brand is growing faster in one market than elsewhere.

**Keyword Trends tracks the keywords that matter to your business and forecasts demand for the next 12 months.**
