Digital marketing has proven to be an essential tool for several business sectors, and tourism is one of the beneficiaries of this strategy. This article aims to analyze data from searches for words or terms related to accommodation in Meruoca. The research has a descriptive and quantitative character, seeking data, analysis and discussion about the searches for terms related to the main means of accommodation in the city of Meruoca, carried out by users in Brazil during the months of January to December 2019.
