Predicting Online Buzz from Offline Buzz

One of the best ways to get online traffic is to be aware of the offline buzz happening around you.    In my opinion, it is like  99% accurate that any offline buzz will also be an online buzz.   People will search about it on the net.

Recently I was  watching news (I think it was CNN) and they were featuring this giant squid.  Now, the term “giant squid” is at number 7 at Yahoo Buzz Index.

Same thing with “American Idol” or any entertainment buzzz.   As things get exciting there,  so as the amount of searches done on the internet.    Just imagine if you can capture some of these traffic.

So be aware of what’s happening offline and you could capitalize those offline buzz in our online world.
