Random Visits
You'd think, wouldn't you, that given the frenetic pace of Blogathon I wouldn't have time to obsess over the Gazette's visitor statistics.
Well, you'd be wrong, of course. You obviously have a lot to learn about blogging and bloggers.
Anyway, I just noticed that we got a visit via Banana Slug, which bills itself as "the Long-Tail Search Engine." Apparently, this engine adds a random word to whatever phrase you're searching for, and then presents a list of results for that "seeded phrase."
I can't imagine what someone would be searching for that, with the addition of a completely random word, would lead them to the Gazette. Unless it's something like:
Original search phrase: Intellectually stimulating and engaging articles
Random word: Not

I just went over there and searched for "fire ant gazette" and it brought up all your posts about ballroom dancing. Gee, I wonder what word they added? %)
