Matt from Montage Montage Communications, challenges the assumption that Bristol is best known for its slavery past and shows that we are best known on Google for our creativity.
Analysis on the Google Trends site (which analyses the number of times a search term is used on Google) shows that Bristol is the number one city in the UK that searches for “creative” . The explanation behind this shows a strong following for the Creative City 2008 bid and an ongoing drive to promote creative industries and media in Bristol. This creative movement has overtaken Liverpool which was awarded the City of Culture “Create 2008″.
Interestingly, Leeds in Yorkshire is the most googled for slavery in the UK, whilst slavery in Bristol has taken a back seat to search terms such as Concorde.
