Funny Search Phrases That People Use To Find Your Blog

I often look at my logfiles and see a really unique and interesting keyword phrase that someone used to find my website. Today was no exception with this doozy:
Reality is Bullshit
Ha. I wonder what the meaning of the search was? I can only imagine. I can already see the T-Shirts if this catchphrase catches on: “Reality is Bullshit, that’s why I prefer hallucinations”.
What is the strangest thing you’ve seen in your log files?

I have been running an alicia keys blog since 2002. One time I saw a search for “can I see alicia keys with no clothes on please?”
That was a classic.

I write a niche IT software blog but it’s a couple of my satire or off topic posts that get the strangest keyword visitors. I rank quite high on Google for “wookie noise”! I am also quite findable on “Zidane head but” and, rather unfortunately, the Cher song title “If I could Turn Back Time”. My favourite is “naked gameshow”. Not only did someone find my blog using this search phrase but they would have browsed through several pages of search results before finding it.

Interesting, the same search now puts your main page at 5th position and the page is now not showing up.
Annoying google, you would think now it is on your main page you should rank higher.

You aren’t kidding Matt. The SERPs shifted completely, and not just for this word.
Google is not what you’d call “stable” anymore.

I did a post like this a couple of weeks ago (well, I’ve only managed to find time to read this post now, so it wasn’t that long before your post), as I also love finding out how people find my site.
My favourite (and scariest find) yet:
“all fat woman should be killed”
WOW!?!

Very unstable, big shifts seem to happen every month now. For my my problem site (also my biggest earner) came back for me wooohooo! But im not too sure how long it will last.
I also read your post, http://directory.sootle.com/directory-weblog/2007/03/12/websites-returning-from-the-dead-in-google/ , the very same happened to me. We should see if we both stay or drop at the same time. I spent a long time fixing my site up, im not 100% sure what helped, but im sure it was most duplicate content problems.

I always try and keep track of how many people are “shouting out” about what happened.
Right now I only have one website (blog) that’s still totally dead. I used the same techniques on all of the other websites and it looks like my supplemental index numbers are dropping quite a bit.
I’ll keep an eye and mention if the other one “comes back” soon or not. I havent updated it as much but I’ll add entries and see what happens.

Yeah its easy to see when you visit a forum like webmaster world and see the thread with 300 replies, lol.
My main problem site (blog also) has come back, I am praying that it last more than a month this time.
I would be interested if your other one comes back, and how your other last, and if they go up and down in sync with mine.
