What is Search term popularity?

[George Peter]

Search term popularity is the search volume of a keyword within SERP over time, showing demand and traffic potential.

It's pulled via keyword tools, reflects query frequency, and helps prioritize niches. High-volume terms bring traffic but often high competition, so balancing long-tail vs head keywords is key for ranking and ROI.
