Traffic Report

I use a service called Sitemeter to help me keep track of who is reading the blog. Don't panic it doesn't reveal your contact details or any personal information, but it gives some very interesting information, including the location of the visitor and the time of the visit. I have been surprised to find that people visit the blog from a number of countries including USA, Canada, India, Philippines and Australia. I hope they don't think that everyone in England is like Robbie – that really would be scary!

Sitemeter also tells me the search terms used when people come to the blog via google or other search engines, I had a look at some of these the other day and I can only conclude that people do some very odd searches. Here are one or two of the strangest ones

national fig roll crisis
how do you get the fig into the gig roll
wake the fish
Jimmy neutron t shirts
bad things about William Shakespeare
sometimes it is not necessary to tell the truth
people in Shakespeare used to wear
craigentinny dentist blog
random demon writings
Samuel Rowbottom


I don't suppose they found many useful answers to their questions on the blog, but perhaps they were not as disappointed as the various people who searched for Robbie Photos expecting to find Robbie Williams smiling back at them, but instead they stumbled upon assorted images of Robbie instead. I'm not sure the world is ready for Robbie as a pin-up, but you never know!
