Every month (since February) I post my site's referral search terms (not what people search for on my site). It's an interesting peek that illustrates "how people are finding me." Here's November's…

Well, let's see. Paris Hilton accounts for 9 of the top 20 searches. Trista and Ryan were recently married, generating a little renewed interest, and they accounted for 4 of the top 20 searches. Throw in some "Camel Toes," a few "Friends with Benefits," and 17 of my top 20 are searches about sex, romance, and female body parts. Only Mario Kart, American Idol, and DMG files escape the crushing lameness of people looking for porn, uplifting romance, or tight pants. And I've only written about Paris Hilton once! (Okay, now that makes two.)
