Ugh this specific example has been used time and time again and it irritates the crap out of me. This is not some accomplishment of big data or even beyond trivial to figure out.
Example Google searches:
> 1 month before conception
best days to conceive
conception calculator free
best iphone conception reminder
best pregnancy tester
what to do when planning to concieve
planning for baby
> 1 month later
signs that youre pregnant
how many days after missed period should i check if i'm pregnant
best pregnancy test 2014
reliable pregnancy tests 2014
> 2 days later
best prenatal vitamins 2014
obgyn in <city> <state>
what to eat when pregnant
can i eat eggs while pregnant
medicine safe while pregnant
when to tell family pregnant
when to tell friends pregnant
I mean, come on! That's not an accomplishment of statistical analysis or big data.
For Target, it's even easier considering that making a purchase is considered the holy grail of all of the Internet's efforts. I mean, when else are you going to be buying pregnancy tests and then prenatal vitamins within months of each other? Not to mention the other things like baby name books, What To Expect..., etc. that a future parent would buy at Target.
How about a real challenge like determining paternity via search histories?
