"About me" is the search term that brings Problogger most traffic.
"What’s the funniest search term that brings you most traffic?" he asks. Here are some of the answers:
“writing is easy hit your forehead”
Kayak fishing
“Britney’s exposed v****" (Asterisks to discourage p**n spam)
"youtute" (misspelled)
‘virtual assistant’
‘Win an iPhone’
"John Chow"
"1st – class c motor homes
2nd – fifth wheel campers
3rd – 5th wheel campers
4th – motorcycle tent trailer
5th – motorcycle tent trailers"
free blog templates”, “free blogger templates” and “free blog template”
"haunted lighthouses"
These and other examples, except possibly the last, indicate to me why I am quite happy to let the wisdom of the crowds stay with the crowds, to let them pass money to and from each other, and why I shall continue in my profitless but pleasant niche, to which none of the above search terms will bring you.
So, conceivably, a post that included all of the above terms might generate a whole lot of traffic. Hmmm. Maybe I’ll try that.
But then again: To what end? To attract the notice of fools and philistines? (Two weeks into the blog game and I’m already feeling cliquish.)
