If you live in Utah you’ve seen the news that though the nation’s overall economy is struggling, the
Utah economy is still quite resilient. Just this morning on my commute into Salt Lake City I heard another report about how the construction and development in the downtown area will help maintain Utah’s economy. Development projects like the
City Creek project will infuse expenditures for construction supplies and private investing. With all of these reports I thought I’d do a little research of my own. I wanted to see how Utah might be doing compared to other states.
With the crash of the housing market I decided to do some research on “utah real estate” and this is what I found using Google Trends and KeywordTracker.

“Utah Real Estate” keyword searches on Google has been more resilient than, California, Florida, New York and Nevada. The overall trends for each of these state is are trending downward, but Utah looks to be dropping the least. Comparing Utah’s trends to the other states does point out the strength of Utah’s real estate market as well as the opportunity for online entities to maintain their digital presence.
Daily searches from Keyword Tracker give these estimates for each of these state:
- Utah Real Estate - 342
- Florida Real Estate - 625
- California Real Estate - 160
- Nevada Real Estate - 68
- New York Real Estate - 60
Like estimates that data from google trends can predict the presidential primary winners, and possibly the presidential candidate winner, I wonder if we should have looked at these trends earlier and sought to understand whether the real estate market was busting?
Now is still a good time to optimize your website or service for Utah real estate, but I’ll bet you know of sites who have reduced their Utah real estate SEO and search marketing efforts?
