Why are you here again?

Recent searches that stranded visitors on TVB:

Hotel Lawanda

Plus there's all the image searches, which have gotten oddly prevalent lately: the Aflac duck, Karl Rove, and Count Chocula. (Hmm. All I need is a headline, and there's a Handy Visual Guide.) But the most people have come looking for a bag of money with a $ on it, though I haven't used that piece of art for a long time. The thing is, I can't figure out what keyword they're using to get here.)

How do you find out what searches strand people on one's site?

Jim Donahue said...

I use the SiteMeter (see logo under the Archives section) report. You can tell from there what search words were used.

Best of all, it's free! (There may be better services out there, but it's all I need or want.)
