Searches for Iceland increase by 85%
October 13, 2008
According to Hitwise UK, ‘iceland’ was the fifth fastest moving search term last week with searches increasing by 85%. The top 5 searches containing the term ‘iceland’ included searches for ‘iceland banks’, ‘iceland news’ and ‘iceland bank’. This reveals peoples interest in the current economic crisis in Iceland, particularly as it was revealed last week that many UK councils have invested large sums of money in Iceland over the past few years. Interestingly searches for ‘iceland’ have also increased traffic to the budget supermarket Iceland by 17% over the last week.
