A comment on the findings by Eduard Dziak, Search Engine Marketing Consultant from B2BDigitalMarketers:
"It's interesting to see how a global pandemic can cause a big increase in online search traffic across the country for companies. From my experience during a pandemic, especially businesses depending on foot traffic to generate revenue had quickly started to transition to online traffic in order to survive. Also, I have seen even the most stubborn business owners that did not believe online traffic works quickly change their minds when there was no other choice - with organic traffic, particularly from Google can become one of the best sources for sales and leads, people and business owners start investing more and more into Google."

Google saw a huge spike in revenue going from $182B in 2020 to $257B in 2021 increase of 41.15% and Google's current revenue (TTM) is $270.33 B. (Source: companiesmarketcap)

The post-pandemic is also likely to accelerate this trend, and increase awareness of the general public about SEO and Google ads, as people and business owners are looking for alternatives to make money and grow their businesses. On top of that, with current Ukraine-Russia war and fuel shortage, online traffic will become even more important.

I hope this analysis is useful and insightful.
