As a follow-up to last month’s On the Strange Ways People Find My Blog, I decided to round up the top 5 search phrases folks are using to find my site over the past week. Things just keep getting stranger:
- “things to try before you die”: Fair enough, but Google’s just barely missing the mark on this one. The post to which they’re directing searchers is really about things not to try before you die.
- “nordic porn”: The respective post was really about maps, but I suppose this is further proof that search engines have a ways to go in the linguistics department.
- “bad reasons to own a private plane”: Your guess is as good as mine. I like private piloting but I wouldn’t say it’s something about which I’m knowledgeable or blog regularly about.
- “tightest jeans in the world”: Evidently blogging about this photo makes me somewhat of an “expert”. Google ranks me as #2!

So what are your readers searching for to find your blog?
