Gene’O, partially in response to my post last week about blogwanking and numbers, put up a post today over at Sourcerer about trying to drive search engine hits to their blogs. It put me in mind of a post that I keep meaning to write and not getting around to.
This post will be filled with profanity, but not for the reason you think. Just FYI.
Back in February I took a picture of twenty inches of snow in my front yard. I titled the picture “Man, fuck this.” And a hilarious search engine blip was born. It turns out that people who are looking for gay porn (I think?) on the Internet and are, perhaps, not terribly great at constructing Google searches sometimes construct their searches by simply typing “man fuck” into Google and then clicking on everything they see.
If you look at my all-time results for hits from search engines, guys, “manfuck”– all one word– is my number one search result. “man fuck”– two words– is number two. Also on the list: “manfuck.” (one word, with a period), “men fucking nen,” which I hope is a typo but is not my typo, “men to man fuck,” “man fuck other,” “manfuck man,” who is totally the worst superhero of all time, “man to man fuck,” “man to manfuck,” “man fuck man 2014,” because timeliness in your porn is important, and “manfukk.” Also on the list, but related to different posts: “fucking at burger king,” “fuck at burgerking,” “fucker/post hole digger” (what?) “angry fukning” and “pictfamily fucked,” which I don’t think has anything to do with the historical Picts at all.
Most of the rest of my search results, and this isn’t a joke, are either about Super Why or my reblog of the “worst end of school year mom ever” post. I repeat: this is not a joke.
And I can only guess what this post is going to do to all of those search queries. I’m totally gonna corner the market on SEO-optimized blogs for non-internet-savvy porn searchers over here. 🙂
