I recently looked through the search terms which people have typed into Google and then come up with my blog as the result. Some of them are pretty random. And yes, some of them are simply the result of typing errors but I still think they (and the images they conjure up) are amusing. Perhaps you will too.
If you’re a WordPress blogger you can find the search terms for your blog by going to your blog stats page, scrolling down to the section “Search Engine Terms” and clicking on Summaries.
spanish deserts without an oven – those Spanish deserts are simply full of pesky ovens. Seriously, can’t they just clear off? I’m hot enough in a desert without needing an oven.
is my house clapboard – I don’t know. I don’t live in your house. And reading my blog is probably not the best way to diagnose the building materials of your house.
beetroot hummus with peeta bread – somebody has been reading too much of The Hunger Games (Peeta is one of the main characters and he also happens to be a baker).
Greg Getten – who’s he? Whoever he is, you won’t find him on this blog. Sorry to disappoint you.
sinister snow globes – I always knew Santa was up to something suspicious.
labradors are actors – Oh, really? Well, that’s news to me.
Do you have a list of amusing search terms with which people have found your blog? Share them in the comments!
This cracked me up! Oh google search.

These are just some of the silly/bizarre/sick terms that have come up in my search terms in the last 30 days:
is my husband a crazy stalker
nosey ass friends always look at pic on facebook but never comment
difference between being nosy and stalking
tighty whitey blogs

There are certainly plenty of bizarre search terms floating around. Fortunately, none of mine are disturbing. At the moment, most people are finding my blog by searching for damson plum recipes. It seems that my damson crumble cake recipe is very popular!

I know! Some of them are merely typos, like the Spanish deserts one. But “Labradors are actors” is just plain bizarre! π

I use WordPress but I can’t find my blog stats page. How do I get to it? And this isn’t a bizarre google search.;-)

Are you a WordPress.com blogger or a WordPress.org (self-hosted)? I don’t have any experience of WordPress.org and I think the layout is somewhat different with that. But if you blog at WordPress.com you should be able to find your stats page by logging in, going to your dashboard and clicking on Site Stats.
There is also a stats tab on the homepage, at the top where it says “Reader; Stats; My Blog; Freshly Pressed”- http://en.support.wordpress.com/stats. I hope that helps and if you still have a problem, the WordPress support forums are very good.

Thanks so much for the info. I self-host so my set-up is a little different, I guess. I’ll check out the forums, though. :-).

Sinister snow globes! Not sure I want to meet the person who looked that up. What a cute pup!

Yes, it’s bizarre! But I’m sure there are much weirder search terms that people look up on Google!
Aww, I know. Labrador puppies are gorgeous! We had Labradors when I was growing up and they are such sweet dogs. π

Unfortunately, since Google started encrypting search terms, it means that the number of search terms that I see in my blog traffic stats has decreased. They often show up as “unknown search terms” now, but there are still a few amusing ones.

Yeah, I wish the encrypted search terms would show up too. Such a good laugh this can be! π
