Every year, millions of people search for Father's Day gifts online. And the way they search has changed dramatically.

- "What's a practical gift for a handy dad?"
- "What's a useful outdoor gift for dad?"
This shift matters. Because the brands and products that show up for those specific searches — with real answers — are the ones that win Father's Day.
