Found a list of the most popular searched for MMOs, it was posted on my facebook about a month ago in the MMORPG group I'm in. Its a group that truly enjoys MMOs, and likes all MMOs new and old. True fans of the genre.
1. WoW - 1,145
2. Runescape- 2,405
3. GW2- 3,346
4. ESO- 3,896 (but this doesn't take into account steam only users)
5. FFXIV- 3,904 (also doesn't take into account steam only users)
6. BDO- 7,683 (also doesn't take into account steam only users)
7. EVE online- 9,257 (also doesn't take into account steam only users)
9. Tera- 15,438 (also doesn't take into account steam only users)
And you must be waiting for #8! Keep reading to find what it is! You won't believe it!
Its no surprise WoW is #1, not only is it the most successful MMO of all time, it also makes more money than any cash shop based MMO. This proves cash shop based MMOs can only make money by making a bad quality game and relying on not people enjoying the game, but buying stuff inside the game.
Runescape of course is really popular, and not really far behind WoW...its definitely the best PVE sandbox MMO and there are only 2 PVE sandbox MMOs that exist (other is Ryzom)
GW2, ESO and FFXIV are all pretty equal. Its the top #5 MMOs, and the site rankings pretty much match that of what people have said are the top 5.
BDO is no surprise because how cheap it is to get into. Its also always sees 10k+ players online at all times, and that is only steam users. Despite all the hate of its cash shop, it sees nice success...though not even close to the top 5
and now are you ready for #8 most visited MMO site?
It took me by surprise!!!! Never thought such an old game could be in the top 10!!!!!!
#8 Tibia- 15,291
That is a surprise isn't it. One of the oldest MMOs around and still #8 most visited MMO site! I couldn't believe it when I read it but its true! It also sees a lot of concurrent online users! Sometimes more than BDO! WOW! AMAZING!
and finally.

I think he/she (if person did it themselves) used some website or something that checks google's search rankings
