Looking for a self hosted, web search trends monitor. I have looked at Plausible Analytics, OpenSearch, Matomo, and some other website analytics platforms, but I’m not necessarily wanting to monitor a specific website(s). Rather, I want to monitor what people are searching for on the internet.
Is such a thing possible?
I’m pretty much sure only free option for finding out what other people search for is Google Trends. It’s very valuable data that is hard to get, so the companies that offer it charge quite a lot for it.
