Funny, Ha, Ha.
Some interesting search terms
The third in a series chroncling some interesting aspects our website statistics reveal about the use of, and the users of GCCC’s Mt. Hope Community Website and Blog (one and two appeared on 8/18 and 8/24): today’s post lists some fascinating and some humorous search terms and search strings people used -- in search engines like Google, Yahoo, and MSN, to name just a few -- to arrive at the Mt. Hope Community Website. Some searched looking for us, some found us by accident.
Look at a few of my favorites (search queries in bold):
