- The US desktop database now spans over 160 million keywords;
- The UK desktop database has gained a whole 4 million new items, for a total of 24 million keywords;
- The German desktop database has grown from 12 to 24 million keywords;
- The Spanish desktop database has made a leap from 6 to 20 million keywords;
- Our Canadian desktop database can now offer 20 million keywords;
- And finally, the New Zealand desktop database gets a massive boost from just 200 thousand to 3 million keywords.

3. Increased Accuracy
Last, but certainly not least – we've finally squashed a technical issue that may have caused some inconsistencies in the report's data. Ouch!
