What is “Google Suggest” or “Autocomplete”?

Hi Friends,

Google Suggest or autocomplete is a Google search engine function that provides suggestions to users as they enter their search query into the search box. Through another function called Google Instant, the SERP adapts to the keywords or phrase as it is being entered.

Google has been offering “Google Suggest” or “Autocomplete” on the Google web site since 2008 (and as an experimental feature back since 2004). So suggestions — or “predictions” as Google calls them — aren't new. Google Instant is a feature that automatically loads results and changes those results.

Google Suggest is the name of Google's auto-complete function. If a user enters a letter or a word in Google's search field, they are automatically shown associated terms in a dropdown menu. These suggestions are generated based on the most frequently searched terms.
