1 – 6th most looked up keyword
1 is, according to iwebtool’s Keyword Lookup, the 6th most looked up keyword on search engines such as Google, Yahoo and MSN. 1 – Nothing more and nothing less. It makes you wonder, right? What is someone searching for when typing only 1? Ok, I can understand ‘One’ or ‘First’ or even ‘Number 1’, but only ‘1’?
- 1 as in top placement?
- 1 as in not two?
- 1 as in I-meant-to-type-q-but-slipped?
Well, this is my attempt to see if any of the 6,810,251 searches per Month for ‘1’ will hit this page, as I have almost stuffed it with the keyword 1. In my case, this 1 post will most likely mean nothing more than 1 more post on our blog…

I don’t think a living soul searches for 1 actually, and it just tells us something about how useless these keyword tools really are. I do however believe that there are a lot of searches for key phrases that include the digit 1.
“Number 1 this or that”
“Famous Book Title 1st edition” (or edition 1)
“Acapulco No 1″
It’s late, but I think three examples might suffice.
I happen to run a few sites that contain a lot of active links with page digits, and I have never ever seen a search for 1 even if I have seen a few for 666, 505, 911, 247 and other more meaningful number series.

1 is also the rank of George Vreeland Hill, who could be the Internet’s number 1 name.
