What Google Sends Me

It happens to have been quite some time since my last “How People Find Darkside Dreamland” kind of post. So lets get down to business and see what the world of search terms has brought me this time!

The Top 5

Yeah, two of my five top terms are still for porn. I’m sure the repetition of me talking about how I end up on lists for these kinds of terms does nothing to make me rank lower… But I really do like the irony of getting porn searches on a site that has never once in its very long history had a naked person on it.

I had always wondered why I got traffic for dreamland.com, and after a quick search I was happy to find I rank third for that term. So at least a few people have gotten bored with looking for the light and popular side of life and have started checking out the cynical darkside of it!

I’ve written a good bit about AEON. So I’m happy that I do get traffic for that. Maybe I need to talk more about the lesson structure, mostly I’ve been very vague about it. Although I’ll probably remain mostly vague for corporate reasons.

Google Transition is my big term (go figure). Oddly enough I also rank third for this term. Right below the Google Reader tour and a mailing list my little story shows up. Hell, I actually beat Webmaster World for it! But maybe that’s because the short search description is probably more than a little flattering for them.

The world will not be united by the global economy, not by humanitarian causes… It will be joined together when it all becomes Google.

Yeah. If you say the world will be united by the most popular search engine they certainly don’t frown at you.

The Other Stuff

I’ve started getting more hits for some of the music videos I posted. So at least they do get some organic traffic rather than only short burst traffic.

A number of other terms are some combination of AEON, Nagoya, Japan, and Teach.

A few search terms include my name, and a few of those also include some part of the website name. So apparently there are at least some searches to directly find this blog!

Sadly though I have dropped off the zombie search charts. This must change! In my never ending quest to defeat the not quite forthcoming zombie menace I should get at least a little traffic from it. Although I haven’t written anything about zombie lately. Time to get that reinforced thinking cap out.

Hehe, as long as my site-traffic goes up, I don´t care where it comes from. Porn is healthy, as long as it stay legal. Everyone likes a nice set of boobies.

I fully agree!
I kind of wonder why I get as much traffic as I do from adult searches - especially since no adult sites of any kind link to me that might boost my search rank. But if I get traffic from it, I won’t complain.
