Searchers Want To Know About The R Word

It should be the Frau Blucher of words and if we believe in that
marketing genius that was “The Secret” we shouldn’t dare throw it
out there. Nonetheless, the braver the media gets at using the “r”
word, the more people are searching for it.

Thus, they’re all putting the energy out there like seeds and are
waiting to reap the harvest.

Recession. There, I said it, now let’s get on with it.

Yahoo’s Molly McCall at The Buzz Log reports that Yahoo searches
have spiked in the past week regarding that rather unpleasant
term. See, put it out there it just grows.

She writes:

“Over the past seven days, searchers propelled queries on
‘economic recession’ and ‘recession’ upwards. Lookups like ‘last
u.s. recession’ and ‘recession proof jobs’ spiked. Even
’stagflation’ - a term not normally found strolling the Buzz
aisles-more than doubled its numbers.”
