One Lofty Goal Traded for Another

With all the fun that I've had with Google, I started thinking about sharing the love. I wanted everyone to know their own Google potential, to bask in the warmth of knowing at least one search term for which their blog was hit #1. This is aside from the KLOG Google Campaign where were trying to make a certain term hit #1 (a term which has been updated, making the campaign a success - see the post for details, which I'll post after I post this so it may not be there just yet). I had already started on this task, and had found one for Susie involving a certain phrase that could be a new STD (you know, the one you get by smarmy dudes in bars saying things like, "You daddy must be a thief... He took the stars from the skies and put them in your eyes.")

With the craziness that has been my life lately, completing such a task in any reasonable amount of time started seeming quite daunting. (Do you see the list of blogs over there on the left? That's not even all of the ones I read; update needed!!) Then, after a significant of time away from Blog World, I noticed when I came back that the subject of the #1 Google Search Term was already prevelent on the minds of some bloggers (see Doc Ern and Snick-r-Snack for starters). Also, I kind of want to jump on the bandwagon of bloggers having a regular group participation activity by starting up mrtl monday (although I doubt I'll ever call it that - oh lord it's hard to be humble).

Since some of you have no clue how to get this information, I'm setting the #1 Google Search Term as next Monday's theme. That will give you time to get over to www.sitemeter.com and get yourselves set up. A reminder will be given later to post your favorite #1 search term on Monday the 30th.

That's my post for tomorrow, mrtl! I think. Are you drunk or am I? I'm having a hard time staying with you on this one. Anyhow, I wrote how people find me, and the fact that most of them are looking for porn. I think I'll post it tomorrow; maybe Wednesday. It sounds like all is going quite well for you and the 3 Ks in your life (Karma).

Porn? On Susie's site? That'll be the day . . .

Glad to see that you and Bug survived the trip, and that you're back in Blogworld!

If you're a cheapy like me and don't want to pay for it, www.statcounter.com gives you everything, including search words for free. The only thing is that it doesn't have a log (well you have to pay for it), so it only tells you the last 100 visitors.

Oooooooooh! GOODY! I'm so excited for mrtl Monday! No, really. I AM.

I have no IDEA what I would do if I had an Interactive Group Day Thingymabobber. Hmmm. Must ponder...

OK, I must be stats challenged, because I can't for the life of me figure out my search words. I'm on statcounter. Can't figure it out.

And sitemeter makes you pay for the search function, right? I'm too damned cheap to do that.

Shucks.

Man, you are so lucky that your name begins with the same letter as a day of the week. Nothing starts with K. NOTHING!
