SingRank

Research

Singapore search and website data, measured by SingRank

We count what Singapore businesses actually publish and what their customers actually search, then write down the method and the limits. Every figure below comes with its sample size and the date it was collected.

How to cite this research

Quote the figure with its base and date, for example “28 of 109 pages, SingRank, 13 September 2026”, and link to the study page rather than to this list. Each study has its own method and limits section and a ready-made citation line at the end. Our studies name no business. Corrections and challenges to any number are welcome through our contact page.

We visit other businesses' public websites with an honest, identified crawler and count what is there.

How we collect the data

Website studies use a crawler that identifies itself, reads each site’s robots.txt and waits between requests. Search results come from SingRank’s self-hosted metasearch, which blends other engines and is not Google’s ranking; every study says so. Search-demand studies use Google’s own autocomplete suggestions for the Singapore market. Search Console figures are aggregated across the sites we manage and never identify a client. Our full standards are in the editorial policy.
