Forward-thinking businesses are paying attention to Web3 as a new way to maximize profits, create engaging gamification marketing, offer immersive virtual experiences to their customers and increase brand loyalty. On the other hand, the Great Resignation led to a massive rise in entrepreneurship in 2021, with 5.4 million new businesses started in the U.S. alone. The increasing need for those businesses to expand their online reach to customers and continue innovating led to an increase in search for services such as social media, online video and more.

“The Fiverr platform acts as a microcosm for what is currently capturing small business owners' attention. Because of this, we can easily look into what trends are fading, what trends are booming and what might still be bubbling up, yet to take off,” said Hila Klein, COO of Fiverr. “The past several years have proven that nothing can stand in the way of small business owners and entrepreneurs achieving their dreams. We’re incredibly proud that Fiverr and our dynamic talent cloud solution has played a role in helping them get there - whether it’s helping them build a website, market their business or even dip their toes into Web3.”

These are the trending global searches over the past six months:
