Referrer Logs

— Matt Harris @ 2:16 pm

I’ve been looking through my referrer logs for the past few months to see what is bringing people to LaunchPad Zero.

Some of the referrer strings (edited for length and clarity), followed by my comments:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=word+document+images+extract
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=alternate+background+shading+in+excel
I have gotten a lot hits from people who want to know how to extract images from word or highlight every other row in Excel.

http://www.google.com/search?q=John+Edwards+slash+fic
According to Google, my site is #13 “John Edwards slash fic”, to which I say “ewwwww…”.

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=ISO-8859-1&q=swahili+chats
When I first checked this, LaunchPad Zero was the number 6 or 7 result for “swahili chats”. Now it isn’t even in the top 30. Google is so fickle.

http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=%22John+Vasconcellos%22+AND+Nudity
I don’t want to know…

http://web.ask.com/redir?q=michelle+trachtenberg+big+nose
Michelle Trachtenberg does not have a big nose. Her nose is appropriately sized for her face and is quite beautiful! So there! 😉

http://web.ask.com/redir?q=what+song+did+the+dozers+in+fraggle+rock+sing
Gads! How would I know – I never watched Fraggle Rock.

http://web.ask.com/q=Feed+My+Bearded+Dragon+Goldfish
Turns out that LaunchPad Zero is the #4 answer for Ask Jeeves – “Feed My Bearded Dragon Goldfish”. My life is now complete.

http://web.ask.com/web?q=Do+I+have+to+pay+off+a+credit+card+if+my+mom+dies%3F&o=0&qsrc=0
I don’t know…is it your credit card?

http://web.ask.com/web?q=Power+Rangers+Lesbian+Fanfiction&o
Not any here…although I admit I used to be a Power Rangers fan.

http://www.google.com.sg/search?q=nc-17+j.k.rowling+fanfic
Please tell me you weren’t looking for fanfiction about J.K. Rowling, as opposed to characters in her books.

http://www.google.com/search?q=%22lucky+charms+marshmallows%22+calories
Turns out that LaunchPad Zero is number 2 for ‘ “lucky charms marshmallows” calories’ – who knew? Who cares? Certainly not I.

http://www.google.com/search?q=is+being+a+temp+an+excuse+to+get+off+of+Jury+Duty&btnG=Search
I can tell you from personal experience – not in California it isn’t.

http://www.google.com/search?safe=off&q=xander+giles+enema+fanfic
Not going there…

Thus ends this excurision into the depths of LaunchPad Zero’s referrer logs. Hope you enjoyed the trip.

    uh, I was just trying to find how many calories Lucky Charms marshmellows have….

  2. Matt Harris says:

    Well, according to calorie-count.com, miniature marshmallows are 159 calories per 50g cup. My guess that is fairly close to Lucky Charms (asuming those things are actually marshmallows).
