Google Still Doing At Least 1 Trillion Searches Per Year

Company is sticking with figure it gave in 2012 but stresses it’s “over” that amount. How much over, Google’s not saying.

Google confirmed to Search Engine Land that it did give Backchannel the 2012 figure — over 100 billion per month, which Google rounds to 3 billion per day — for its story. Google told us that the figure still holds for today since “over” leaves things open-ended (and by implication, higher). Google also said not to expect an updated figure any time soon.
