It’s been a very busy year (isn’t it always). We’ve had plenty of product updates, new market intelligence reports to get stuck into, and tonnes of content to share from our experts here at Pi.
Read on for your 2023 recap. Plus, a sneak peek at what’s in store for 2024!
The most searched terms of 2023
We can’t have a roundup blog post without reviewing the most searched terms of 2023 from our Market Leader industries. Let’s take a look at what the US and UK have searched for the most this year so far…
In the US, terms that fall into the travel or electrical categories take center stage.
Travel was top of the agenda for Americans this year with ‘hotels’, ‘flights’, ‘apartments’, and ‘cheap flights’ all featuring in the top 5 most searched terms since January 2023.
The data would also suggest that Apple TVs, the PlayStation 5, the Nintendo Switch, and Apple Watches are the hottest products of the year.
In the UK, insurance seems to be much higher up the agenda with liability insurance, car insurance, and travel insurance all featuring in the top ten most searched terms of the year so far.
Travel terms were also highly searched this year. ‘Hotels’ was searched a massive 75,400,000 times since January and ‘flights’ saw 7,780,00 searches.

What’s new in the Platform?
Working closely with our customers, we’re constantly updating and improving our SEO platform – striving to develop features that our customers want and need. And 2023 has been no different.
First up, we released our brand new Conflict Detector tool suite. Users can monitor the impact of cannibalisation on their website traffic straight from their Dashboard when they log in.
We also introduced two new widgets: Conflict Summary (a week-on-week comparison of internal conflict) and Conflict Timeline (a view of the number of conflicting terms by workspace over time).
We were also hard at work enhancing our Search Term Discovery tool. With the latest improvements, users have more control over their queries, making finding relevant and valuable search terms quicker.
Learn more about our enhancements to Search Term Discovery in this blog post.
2023 also saw us release our brand new Search Term Manager feature! Search Term Manager was built to bring meaningful structure to your search terms.
This brand-new tool allows users to:
- Track high-traffic terms
- Run competitor analysis across search terms
- Categorize terms by URL

And that’s not all. Keep your eyes peeled for our brand new Feature Explorer tool coming very soon. If you’re a Pi user you can check it out in Pi Labs.
