What did people search on Google and brought them to Kisahberuang.com in October 2008? Based on the Google Webmaster Tools, the Top Search Queries for this blog in October 2008 are as below:

hot 15 (32%) – If you follow that link, you will be greeted by some ladies in bikinis and that could be hot for some guys and because of that they found a hot bear too. Is that so? Anyway, the hot link actually went to my post on some hot news on October 15 here.

commentluv enabled jokes (5%) – I could not find the link anymore. This blog has the Commentluv plugin enabled but I seriously do not remember making any jokes about that. So, I wonder what is that all about.

wedding anivasary (5%) – This person could not even spell anniversary correctly and I think he or she must be looking for something to buy for his or her anniversary. Due to that, my 2nd wedding anniversary post got picked up in the process here. I love that!

anas zubedy (5%) – I didn’t know that this guy is famous. Some people have been looking for him and ended up here instead. This search found my Malaysia tag and I wrote a post about his call for unity message here.

jenis gerbera (5%) – I could not locate this link anymore and I have no idea what that is. Based on the search result, this is referring to some flowers… I do not remember writing about any flower in this blog so far.

lainy (3%) – I could not find my link in this search either and the only Lainy that I know is a blogger at Lainy’s Musing and she is one of the top entrecard droppers at this blog. I guess that must be the link.

googl the life of tony hawq (3%) – An interesting search that must be looking for somebody by the name of Tony Hawq but ended up on my post about the popularity of Internet Explorer here. The key words got linked to Tony and The Hawg!, which I misspelled as Hawq (sorry Mr. Hawg), who are among the commenter in that post.

malaysia feet therapy fish spa (3%) -This fish spa stuffs is really getting the attention of Malaysians lately and I did post a video about it here. Now you can find this spa in shopping malls and even at some of the hypermarkets. Anybody has tried that?

shaxx (3%) – I wonder why are people searching for my nickname? Then I realized that there are others out there using that nickname as well… Whoaa… Who can they be?

klci record tracking (3%) – This is related to one of my posts about the Kuala Lumpur Composite Index here. the KLCI is still not in a good shape until today due to the global financial crisis.

old kuala krai station wordpress (3%) – Is that somebody looking for a railway station or a wordpress blog about the railway station in Kuala Krai? Instead they went to my hot news (see above) about the gruesome murder case in Kuala Krai here.

klci jatuh lagi (3%) – I think many Malaysians are upset or worried about the state of the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange where the Composite Index has been going down recently. I posted about that here.

irresponsible boyfriend (3%) – Some girls out there are not happy with their boyfriends I guess. Somehow, these keywords are also in my hot news (see above) and part of that news was about a boyfriend who did some bad things to his girlfriend here.

why smoking “isn t” cool (3%) – This person was probably trying to change his or her lifestyle or may be it was for someone else. It is either he or she is trying to quit smoking or get somebody to quit. I did a post about smoking here.

wow beruang (3%) – This is really cute but it is kinda strange that there are people who search for such a thing. Searching for beruang (bear) would be normal but “wow beruang”, that beats me. Anyway, that went to the front page of this blog.

seram “yahoo com” 2008 -spam (3%) – The weirdest search last month. I could not locate the link anymore. I am still wondering about the relationship between seram (spooky) and Yahoo! in 2008. I also didn’t know that spam could be spooky. Do you know?

umobile commission (3%) – Yet another link that could not be located anymore and I definitely have not written about U-Mobile.

There you go! It is interesting to see what people searched on Google and how certain words in your blog posts would be picked up by the search engine and bring in visitors to your blog.

However, some of them remain a mystery…

People who arrived at this page were looking for:

Have you ever wondered how people came to your blog through search engines? Today, I have to satisfy that curiosity and went over to my cPanel Awstats to find out what people were searching for and eventually landed at Kisahberuang.com.

Firstly, I wanted to see what are the search engines that brought those visitors to this blog. I was expecting either Yahoo or Google to be on the top but I was mistaken. The top search engine that sent visitors to this blog is Live Search from Microsoft!

I have never heard of this search engine before until I checked the stats today. Google is on the second place followed by Yahoo. Have you used Live Search before or I am the only one on planet Earth who just found out about it?

Now, let’s look at the top 10 search keyphrases that brought the visitors here.

kisahberuang (30.7%), wonderful (3.1%), ramadhan comment codes (3.1%), blogroll (3.1%), google (2.3%), merdeka ke 51 (2.3%), salam ramadhan card (2.3%), promote (2.3%), kisah beruang (2.3%) and lastly, 31 merdeka-51 picture (1.5%)

As for the keywords, here are the top 25 search keywords for this blog listed in order;-

kisahberuang, ramadhan, merdeka, google, malaysia, fish, card, wonderful, codes, chrome, salam, proton, 51, comment, blogroll, therapy, of, kisah, 1429, money, error, droppers, promote, ke, beruang

I am going to look at the lists again next month and see what would be the phrases and words that drive visitors to this site. Have you checked yours!

I was chatting with Lankapo about increasing visitors by writing something that is more “SEO friendly”… I think that was the word that he used… or was it something else but the main word was SEO. For those who are not familiar with SEO, it is something to do with search engines and if you want to know more, please go and ask Lankapo as the only few engines that I know are fire engines and my car’s engine that always ask me to feed him with gasoline…

Anyway, I told him, based on what I read the most popular word for search engine nowadays is something to do with mortgage and therefore, there is nothing for me to write about that. Even the word mortgage itself, I actually remembered it from my recent visit to Atniz. She talked about some key words such as mortgage refinancing, mortgage refinance rates, second mortgage rates and some other mortgage and rates related words. Definitely not something that I can blog about. The only thing that I know about mortgage is that if you don’t pay, the bank will chase you like a mad dog…

So, Lankapo told me that there are other topics that I can write about such technology or any computer related tips. I told him that may be I would give that a try and after sitting in front of my notebook for a couple of hours, I realized that I have no specific technology or computer tips to share. Definitely not especially when my daily dose of technological and computer tip stuffs come from Bioteck.Net. I do not think I want to just copy anything from there…

In the end, I have nothing to write about and there was nothing interesting that has happened for the past half a day or so. Since I have nothing to post, I just scanned some latest news on what’s going on in Malaysia hoping that I would get some idea about some technical stuffs later…

As expected there would be at least one news about PKR and Anwar and this time it was Wan Azizah’s statement about more BN MP’s ready to cross over¹. Have we heard enough of that already?

Then the next favorite news of the day would be ISA and today was about Teresa Kok and her heart-to-heart talk with the Guang Ming Daily², whoever or whatever that was while parents in Malacca were mourning the loss of their only son after he came back from the National Service stint recently³.

Then there was a story about a stinking and filthy food preparation area of a restaurant in the SS2 Commercial Area in Petaling Jaya⁴ with some disgusting photos for the readers to enjoy.

Finally, before I decided to stop my news scanning and go back write something technical on my blog, I just glanced over the latest news about the Sighting of Syawal new moon that would be held on next Monday⁵ and that means the Aidil Fitri celebration is already around the corner.

I thought that was the last news for the day but then I saw the story about the story of Fazura, the actress that was acquitted of causing hurt to a housewife⁶. Not that I am a fan of her but it made me curios as it was one of the most read news today.

There you go, I really have nothing to write today and hopefully tomorrow I can continue thinking about writing an SEO friendly post.

²Teresa Kok: Not In Vain
³Parents say no to NS stint after son’s death
