We\u2019ve gathered the top five to help you simplify and strengthen your press release and content marketing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/guides.newswire.com\/guide\/how-to-send-press-releases-via-email\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" style=\"margin-left: 20px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newswire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/Guide-Email-image.png\" alt=\"email-press-release\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" align=\"right\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Google Trends<\/strong> &#8211; This is one of the easiest tools that you can use to find the latest trends. If you have a Google account, simply visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/trends\/\">https:\/\/www.google.com\/trends\/<\/a> and log in. You can then view the general top trending topics for the day, or you can search by category or keyword using the \u201cexplore topics\u201d search bar. Once you\u2019ve identified a few relevant and useful categories and\/or keyword phrases, consider setting up a subscription. Then Goggle Trends can send you regular updates of the trending topics in that niche. Google Trends is free and provides you with real-time information.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Twitter Trends<\/strong> &#8211; Twitter is an active social media site with search and trending functionality. Visit <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search-home?lang=en\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/search-home?lang=en<\/a> and see what everyone is talking about. The home page, Twitter.com, shows the top topics and trends in real time. You can also search by categories and phrases. Or log into your Twitter account and look on the left-hand side of the page. You\u2019ll see trending topics right now. While this isn\u2019t necessarily great for content planning, it can help you brainstorm press release angles if you\u2019re looking to capitalize on trending topics to increase the impact of your release.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Buzzfeed<\/strong> &#8211; This is a website that most millennials are quite familiar with. it is a curator of the top trending topics for the day. They also display Buzzfeed trends for everyone to see on the right-hand side of the homepage. It focuses primarily on pop culture and news, so it may not be right for every industry. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/\">https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Buzzsumo<\/strong> &#8211; This is a fantastic content research tool that can help you discover what type of content your audience will respond to, as well as help you gauge the response. It also offers a trend tool. Enter your topic or keywords and review the results. You can filter them down to just look at blog posts or news stories. You can also filter by time\/duration and country. <a href=\"http:\/\/buzzsumo.com\/\">http:\/\/buzzsumo.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Keyhole<\/strong> &#8211; This site searches hashtags across multiple social media platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Like Google Trends, you can set up alerts and have them emailed to you. You can also use it to track and measure brand mentions. <a href=\"http:\/\/keyhole.co\/\">http:\/\/keyhole.co\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Finally, don\u2019t forget to take a peek at AllTop and Reddit. both are great sites for hot topics.
