About this tracker
Every active designer listing in our corpus is tokenized: HTML stripped, stopwords (common English words + job-posting boilerplate) removed, pure numbers dropped. The remaining tokens are bucketed into Monday-anchored weeks based on when each listing was first seen. Counts are weekly totals across every listing for that week. A week only counts as collected if our LinkedIn scrape (about 80% of volume) ran that week; weeks when it didn't are shown hatched as gaps, never as zeros.
