Top "Customer Success" Related Questions being searched on Google
We've all asked and answered the question "what is customer success", So I wanted to do a little research to determine what people are still asking google.
I used some content research tools + Google's Keyword planner to find the results below. These details are extremely helpful if you're considering creating new compelling and valuable resources.
1. Customer Success Continues to Snowball
Not surprising, since 2019 Customer Success related searches have gone up 6x. However since summer of 2020 search volume has remained relatively flat. Ask me to look up this information again at the end of the year. May 2021 was the first sign of a decline, however June bounced back. It will be interesting to see if interest around the subjects continues its steady climb.
Monthly Search Volume: June 2019 = 43,000
Monthly search volume. June 2021 = 233,000
2. Most Popular Search Terms in Order of Search Volume.
3. Top Question people are searching on Google in order of search volume.
If you're looking for content for your blog, I'd suggest creating answers for the following topics.

@Jeff Breunsbach - Happy to join! just give me a date time!
Love this @Ben Bunting - we should bring this as a regular segment to the podcast! Maybe monthly/quarterly. Want to come on and talk through some of these?
Hi Ben,
Interesting facts. I read your other question inside the thread re searches that more experienced CS professionals would perform. I can share few of the topics that I searched for in 2021 (so far): Playbooks (onboarding, QBR, adoption, Churn, stakeholder change) and soft sills and how to utilize them effectively in remote work scenario (when we don't meet our customers).
Thanks,
Guy

Thanks @Anita Toth - I've been trying to find a way to dig into more experienced users, and what they would search. I'll keep you posted if I have any luck 

Love this info @Ben Bunting! The questions really show that many people are just discovering CS for the first time and are trying to understand it.
I think how vastly different the questions are here in the GGR forums where people already know what CS is.
This info is great for content marketers looking to publish top-of-the-funnel content.
Would love to see how things change by the end of the year.
This is fascinating @Ben Bunting. Thanks for sharing. I think these questions truly show how infant Customer Success still is. A good reminder for those of us who have spent several years living and breathing Customer Success that in reality it is still unknown to most and a long way from it's perceived value matching its actual value. Stoked to see the update at the end of the year.
