Thursday Thirteen: Greatest(?) Hits
13 Searches That Found My Blog
It sucks that I know most of these are image searches, but hey, eyeballs are eyeballs right? Throw enough of them against the wall and one or two are bound to stick, right? Ok, with these searches, probably not. And that’s just a gross image. *grin* I know. Post more regularly too.
I was pleased to notice that my Regency Resource pages have been seeing more traffic lately, especially the sections on regency slang and how to tie a cravat in either a mailcoach, a gordion knot or a mathematical. That Neckclothitania image was a good one to include it seems.
1. Jamie Hewlett just happens to share my exact birthday so that TT has been hit 1,192 times for his picture.
2. My post about seeing the light at the end of the tunnel has only been hit 320 times for the picture.
3. Apparently people like to search for images of the number three. They’ve found me 269 times with it.
4. Similarly, the void is also 254 views worth of popular.
5. Once upon a time I was one of the 215 seeking a picture of drama masks
6. It’s nice to see that the Divas’ free reads from last Valentine’s Day have gotten 71 views.
7- 9. Several people are looking for information on dialogue, the three act structure and how to put together a story arc. Maybe even many of the same people.
10. Also on the Regency-Specific resouce pages people are looking for information on regency slang.
11. Another image search: perfection game Wild… I used to love that game…
12. It’s kind of cool to see the blog title come up a bunch too. Neat.
13. I still think my favorite image is the one of the fighting mouse. I was surprised at how many others also search up for that poor little rodent.

What fun. I’ll have to try that one time. Happy T13 Kaige!
Great list. Interesting too..Happy TT:)
#3 cracks me up. What’s up with “3” and your site?
Nadia, I used an image of the number three on the post talking about how three is such a magical number in so many ways. The pink words are links if you’re curious about the original context.
Website stats are always interesting. It’s a great idea for a TT
I keep thinking that I should check and see where/why my traffic comes to my site – and now I’m inspired anew! 🙂
And I like the mousie picture, too. 🙂
Ciao for now!
I get some crazy searches too. Happy T13. Mine are up at a Daily Dose.

Isn’t it interesting to see what leads people towards one’s page? 😀
That is so cool! 🙂 I’ll have to try it sometime. Happy Thursday!
Hmm I wonder what mine are… great list!
You get a LOT of traffic!! Much more than I do. I should check out your regency stuff.
Hey, how funny! I was probably one of those drama masks hits! I needed it for a cake I was decorating, lol.
how very cool…..
Cool TT!
*hugs*

I’m just impressed with your cleverness of making the one about the number 3, #3 🙂
Hehe… I didn’t actually manipulate that… It just happened to be the third most popular search. LOL Call it serendipitous.
Fun list–it’s always interesting to see what brought people to your blog, isn’t it?
I love these lists!
I’m kind of scared to see who reads my blog and why. I know a lot of realtives (that’s the second time I spelled it that way, must be subconscious) check in on me. *sigh*
That fighting mouse sure is cute. 🙂
I used to be surprised at some searches that led people to my blog(s). Now i’m surprised how spammers do!
Great idea for a TT.
I found your blog because I was looking for Regency slang!
Something for your resource links for Regency: the dance history blog Capering and Kickery (www.kickery.com) has several essays on actual Regency dancing (as opposed to what you see in movies) here: http://www.kickery.com/regencyjane_austen/
This one is the best: http://www.kickery.com/2008/03/regency-dancers.html
The author is a dance historian and teacher and she sometimes answers questions too.
Thanks for the links, Amy!
I added them. I loved the post about Regency Authenticity.
