Is there a way to find out if someone has been searching your name on Google or other search engines?

I was just curious. If someone has done searches on you/your name and location, etc. on Google or any other search engines, can you find out that information? If it's possible, where would one go about finding out if someone's been searching them? I already know about Reunion.com, but that's not the type of searching I'm talking about. I mean, someone just puts your name into a search engine to find info on you either out of curiosity or for more sinister reasons.

I hope you have a somewhat unique name!

Google (to my knowledge) doesn't provide the public with anything this specific. That said, however, there is a newer feature they are currently developing called Google(TM) Trends. The site has the tagline, "See what the world is searching for." I'm sure your task isn't the intent of this site, but it might just work. If you have a somewhat unique name (i.e. NOT john smith) it will show you how many searches and in what cities those searches came from. If you do have a fairly ubiquitius name, try adding some other details (your city, your state, or some other feature you think someone may use to find you). You can even add a group of searches by using a comma to separate them.
Hope this helps! |

Only the searchengine owners (some of them) are able to do that
|
Google seems to be able to deliver every search everybody ever did (very scary). Yahoo's policy does not allow that (very good). Other engines have similar (like Yahoo) rules for themselves.
In general (except for Google) it is not possible to see who typed in your name |

I don“t think so

You won´t get that information from any search engine. A search engine might have information about how many times a name has been searched, but I doubt that will be a information you´ll get, unless your name has been searched a lot, as if you are Britney Spears or Tom Cruise. Moreover, specifically who is searching you.. Nah, you´ll never get that kind of information. Technically hard to keep that kind of information and againts privacy of whom is searching.

You can quite easily find out where your name is googled from. You can do it by setting up your own website (and tracking the traffic through Google Analytics), but a much easier way is to use a service dedicated to finding out who googles your name. To give you an example there is a service called StalkInfo.com. They will not only show you the locations of people googling you, but also their operating system and browser info.
