America Online's AOL Search announced the top searches on AOL Search, the AOL.com portal and the AOL service during 2005.
"Lottery" was the most searched word in 2005, followed by "horoscopes" and "tattoos". Paris Hilton was the most searched celebrity in 2005.
The disappearance of Natalee Holloway in Aruba was the most searched news topic online in 2005.
"Millions of people search online through AOL Search for a wide spectrum of things, but there are those terms that are looked-up more frequently than others. From news and people that grab attention to popular products and common queries, the most searched for topics online during 2005 are a reflection of what was top of mind or what people wanted to find more information about," says Jim Riesenbach, senior vice president of AOL Search and Directional Media. |
