A PRIVATE NOTE FOR CLAY · NOVEMBER 9, 2026
How many people look for Christian marriage books and related questions on Google each month, measured as searches.
This is a starting point for helping readers find Drafted to Last. Your introduction welcomes engaged couples, newlyweds, strong and struggling marriages, and people facing or going through divorce; it does not tell us which subjects the chapters cover.
Google searches a month for “what does the bible say about divorce.”
Google searches a month for “what does the bible say about marriage.”
Google searches a month for “christian marriage books,” a phrase directly about books.
Google searches a month for “how to save my marriage,” a question a free page could address.
The biggest questions offer ways to introduce the book. They do not show how many people will buy it, and these counts should not be added together.

| what does the bible say about marriage | 8,100 |

Amazon does not publish search counts. The saved November 9 suggestions included these exact phrases:
These are clues to wording, not a popularity order or proof of sales. Some requests made with the Books filter returned All Departments, so this is not a clean Books-only comparison.
“Drafted to last” returned no suggestions in the saved check. That does not decide whether it is a good title.
“Christian marriage books” has a February peak in the saved research, with higher interest continuing into March and April.
We could prepare pages and book emails before February, if the manuscript and launch plans are ready. The saved research describes “how to save my marriage” and “prayers for a broken marriage” as steady.
People asking what the Bible says about divorce or marriage make up the largest audiences here, though they are seeking answers and may not be shopping for a book. We could write free pages with answers you approve, each leading to the book, cover vote and email list; reaching these broad audiences would be a longer-term effort.
People searching “christian marriage books” are looking directly for books, but the saved research flags this as hard to appear for at first. The preview already names the book as Christian, and we could build a separate, fair book comparison page that introduces Drafted to Last using only details you confirm.
People also search for saving a marriage, prayers for a broken marriage and rebuilding trust after cheating. We could start with a free page on a topic you are comfortable addressing and invite readers to meet the book and join its list, without presenting that page as a lesson from the manuscript.
Readers type “Christian marriage book” on Google, and that wording also appears in the saved Amazon suggestions. We could try a subtitle carrying that plain description while you consider keeping or changing the main title; the options below are drafts for your decision, not a winning title.
Readers browsing Christian marriage books may also discover books through categories, and the saved research found Christian Marriage, Marriage, and Christian Family & Relationships on comparable books. We could review those as possible categories for your listing, checking the available choices and the manuscript fit when preparing it.
Readers coming to the book preview already have a cover choice and a first-chapter sign-up to try, but the current demo records no real votes or email sign-ups. We could connect the planned Kit list so a name and email cast the vote, reveal results after joining, and deliver the chapter and eventual cover announcement; those votes would show what participating readers pick, not predict sales.
The Google figures are United States Google Ads data supplied through DataForSEO, saved on November 7 and November 9, 2026. They are rounded monthly averages, copied as reported, not counts of unique people.
The November 7 file covers October 2025–September 2026. The November 9 title file describes a 12-month average but does not name its start and end months; it supplies the main table except for the prayers and trust phrases, which come from November 7.
“Marriage books” was reported as 1,900 in the November 7 file and 1,000 in the November 9 file. We show the newer figure provisionally; the saved files do not explain the difference, so it is not evidence of a decline.
Some phrases overlap or are grouped variants, including “christian marriage book” and “christian marriage books.” Do not add them together. These numbers show demand, not a promise of rankings, visitors or sales.
Amazon wording and possible categories come from the saved November 9 title and Amazon research and its suggestions capture. Suggestions can change, the department filter was unreliable, and no Amazon search counts are available here.
