Landing on the Forbidden Planet
I always like to see the search terms that bring people here. I blogged once before on this. Award winning chili no longer seems to make the rounds, although anthony de croud still does. In order of popularity, from the past week or so, the search terms are:
Twenty six came in from google, and one from yahoo - this is not surprising since google owns blogger. Some of these are pretty obscure and people have to dig deep in the search lists to actually find me.

The one I use is provided by Statcounter. It is non-obstrusive, does not require you to show a hit counter, nor does it put any advertising or popups on your page.
It comes in a free version which tracks your last 100 hits or you can pay if you want to track more than 100 visits.
It allows you to see which search terms are bringing people to your page, which web page they land on, which web page they leave from, how long they have stayed, where they came from. My top two visiting countries are the US and Singapore.
This is not the only one available, Elvina uses a different one as does Erin (she has a nice side bar that shows all the countries visiting her).
You can also check out The Free Country for a variety of free web statistics services. The Free Country is a good resource page for all sorts of development tools and libraries from programming to web design.
Don't forget to set a cookie on your computer to avoid tracking yourself every time you gaze lovingly at your blog - Statcounter provides this feature and I presume others do too.
For the curious, these are the most recent search terms to bring people here:

barbara: I am not aware of any converts from search engine referrals. Although, sometimes, I notice the same person coming back several times on the same search terms.
some really read my blog regarding the time they spent there.
but u got a lot,26 in one day?
The last eleven were spread over 2 days. The ones in my post over a week.
rennyba: I like clever titles too, but they search engines also hit the words in your posts as well.
freckled-one: I hope it works out well for you.
tin-tin: I looked at your web page, I only see a reference to easyhitcounter, but none to statcounter. Perhaps you forgot to include the HTML code on your page to enable it?
