METHODOLOGY
- Action Network carried out the analysis in November 2024
- The Google searches of the past 12 months in 100+ countries were taken into account, gaining data from Google Keywords Planner
- Number of Taylor Swift songs included in the analysis: 219
- Number of Taylor Swift albums included in the analysis: 11
- Since some of Taylor Swift’s songs might have a general name which could skew the search results, the analyzed keywords were in the following format: name of the song & Taylor Swift (for example: “Cruel Summer Taylor Swift”); same format was used for Taylor Swift albums which had a general name (for example: “Midnights Taylor Swift”)
- Since Taylor Swift’s 1st studio album was self-titled, the keyword used was “Taylor Swift debut album”
- Countries with no data results were omitted from the analysis
