Your Guide To The Google Santa Tracker


google santa tracker 2013

One of the best ways to find Santa Claus on Christmas Eve is the way people find all sort of things: by using Google. Every year, the Google Santa Tracker helps answer the question of “Where’s Santa Now?” for millions of children.

Every Christmas Eve, Search Engine Land provides an annual update on how to get the most out of Google Santa Tracker. You’ll find that update below when ready, as well as related stories and recaps from previous years.

If you want an alternative to Google Santa Tracker, NORAD Tracks Santa is a wonderful service. Search Engine Land’s Santa Trackers page has more about it and others.
