I'm have no idea on how to use it but don't worry, I'm not going to ask you to show me how. I will search on youtube. I just want to know the numbers on the graph. e.g. :

Google Trends

numbers on the side of the graph. I don't get. what does it represent? It says it has been normalised but not sure what that means. I just want to know how many times people search the word "tekken"

    Google trends isn't the tool you are to use for this, look for Google Keyword Tool to see the number of searches for the region you're interested in.

    Google Trends takes the period you've selected , uses the highest searched period as a 100 and normalizes the rest according to it.
    What does it mean normalizes? It means if another period had half of the searches there were in the peak period, it will show 50. But these are not absolute figures, just relations (normalized).
    It helps to see a trend for a specific search and it helps to compare between searches. No actual numbers. For that you will need the Google Keyword Tool, as mentioned earlier.
