WOW, that Bob Dylan search is pretty cool, the others are strange indeed.
haha @ the last keyphrase – well, you talk a lot about family on your blog, so you must’ve mentioned sex there as well :-)

I like this game. Here are a few of mine: how to talk and stand up your self I can't even begin to think what that would be a search for! I'm actually quite chuffed about this one. Number 1 spot for: let the children bob dylan For the bizarre: baby hand flapping Eh? And for the distinctly uncomfortable: always looking for sex. I don't have a link for that one because I'm pleased to say that I can't reproduce the results.

Thanks for sharing the tips Vivien! :) I guess I should also start focusing more on how people arrive at my site. Congratulations on the growing success of the site, btw.

I think Google Blog Search is really helpful for new blogs, I usually use Google Blog Search for blogs, but sometimes I just use Google.

but that key phrase is a word for word copy of your post title. Yahoo and other bots can’t recognize the mockery :-)

My personal site shows up #2 on Yahoo for “door to door magazine sales”. I find this odd because that post was pretty much a mockery of a recent sales attempt.

ha, I tried searching on Google for “monkeys on parade”, there's actually a blog with such name - the recent post is featuring Michael Jackson :-)

Some of my strange key phrases were “monkeys on parade”, “crazy steep trail china”, and “land cruiser 130 series”. I think they were all from the blog searches because I don’t see my site on the search engines for those phrases.

I wonder the same thing, LGR – would any of them come back?

Ha, Simonne, your blog post shows up as #1 for “I don’t trust psychics” phrase, that’s something :-)
