Here is the 10 Top 10s for 2010: Search Year in Review
In the final analysis it is about potential customers that click on your presentation to see what you are offering not just getting a position high in a search engine. I think the most surprising entrant this year was the way the Facebook has taken the lead in CLICKS... not necessarily search, but in CLICKS. Being at the point of a search result is great but does nothing if no-one clicks on it.
See how YouTube still holds the number 2 spot - video is a very compelling format when it comes to getting people to click on your presentation... now how do they become a buyer is an entirely different kettle of fish!

Top 10 Most Popular Search Clicks
- YouTube
- Yahoo
- Yahoo Mail
- Craigslist
- Myspace
- Gmail
- Yahoo.com
- Hotmail
Most of the time we see top "searches" put out by the engines (see this year's lists for Bing, Yahoo, Ask, and AOL), but being that clicks are a better proxy for relevance (they were terms that got searchers to the destinations they were seeking), this will give you a slightly different version of lists to work through. All these lists are based on United States searchers and exclude Adult/XXX websites (just to keep it family oriented).
Note: Google #6 on the list... again, its about clicks not searches
