Justin Bieber & Miley Cyrus Included in Dog Pile’s Most Searched List 2011

Dog Pile has released their list of most searched items for 2011. The lists include a few of your favorites celebrities like Miley Cyrus, Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez. While their list is on the late side of coming out, it still is a very interesting list. They also included some other items as well that really helps shape what this year was all about. You will find the full list at the bottom of this post.

I will admit that I do enjoy these lists, it sort of gives an idea about what people search for but I also sort of feel like it is virtual intrusion on their users. Never less the lists do pretty much stay the same throughout the years that they have kept track of it and I suppose webmasters can learn a thing or two from these kinds of list. It could help some of the smaller sites to learn how to rank higher. Beyond that these list just likely feed some egos, but hopefully not too many of them.

How do you feel about these kinds of lists? They certainly are a fun look at most web user’s minds. But I will say that they should say how they compile these kinds of lists. It doesn’t seem too clear and since that is the case, it is hard to see where they get these numbers from. In the mean time, though, I do suppose we can enjoy these lists and wonder what next year will bring in terms of the most searched for items of 2012.
