I think this is an interesting question and worth to be investigated better.
So I went to Google Trends and made a query by puting as argument the word "steemit" and as a time interval the last 12 months.
The following graphics appeared.
As you can see from the graphics is popular in whole over the world. But there is a country where the word "steemit" was searched most is China. Other countries such as Venezuela and Slovenia made it to the top ten. USA instead is even lower that Canada.
In Africa there is Nigeria and South Africa where the word "steemit" was searched most.
I wonder how the block China is doing the cryptocurrencies and to the ICO will affect future results.
Let's hope next time we see those demographics the picture would not change much for what regards China and will change for better regarding USA.
That is very interesting. Can you confirm it from Alexa?

Nope! Alexa says that steemit is more popular in USA, UK, South Korea and India . Here you can check yourself https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/steemit.com But I guess it might be due to the fact that Alexa and Google have different data sources. They do converge on South Korea however.

Is the stats provided by Google about traffic or search terms?

Search terms. Google Trends simply plots the data of searching so it is not given for granted that the person searching steemit will end up visiting the site.

Good job!
I think that there are some countries which need criptocurrency to earn money and they have a weakly currency so the cryptocurrency os the only way to invest and save money, and Steem offers the opportunity to earn criptocurrency making contents.

There is also Venezuela which has now a terrible inflation due to political instability so I guess people are trying to find ways to exchange their money for something more stable. It seems crazy but in this case, I see it like this.
