What SA customers do online when they need an upholstery business
Figures from Google Trends and Stats SA on how South Africans search for upholstery and headboards, and how much furniture makers sell.
Swipe for more charts.
Headboards are searched almost as often as upholstery
In 2025, South Africans searched “headboards” (69.8) almost as often as “upholstery” (75.6), and far more than “couch covers” (14.3), “upholstery fabric” (8.0) or “upholstery cleaning” (2.2). These are yearly averages of weekly values, calculated by Just1. In a separate comparison, “upholsterers” (0.8) and “reupholstery” (0.1) barely registered next to “upholstery” (75.6). Use the word “upholstery” with your town, and if you make headboards, give them their own section with sizes and photos.

Upholstery searches peak in January, headboards in winter
From 2019 to 2025, January was the busiest month for “upholstery” searches in South Africa (81.6 on average) and the top month in 5 of the 7 years. “Headboards” peaked in July in 5 of the 7 years, with June and July the two busiest months on average (59.0 and 62.4). Monthly averages are our arithmetic. Have your page and photos up before these months.
