Microsoft Are Idiots

So I haven't posted in a while. Meh! Get over it. I'm sure my three regular readers can find something else to occupy themselves.

My picture essay blog seems to be doing quite well for itself. It's getting an average of four page views a day. I admit that those numbers aren't going to let me to sell advertising space on the site and live like a king but since I haven't registered the site with any of the search engines I thought this was pretty awesome. I was interested in how people were getting to my site and so looking in my page stats I was quite surprised when I found out what keywords people were using to find my page. The number-one keyword search, to get to my blog, that shows pictures, is from the msn search engine, and the keyword is... you'll never believe it: spanking. And as of a few days ago the number-two keyword search string was SPANKING.

Then I figured it out.

When I announced my picture essay blog I remembered that I used the words "brand spanking new picture essay blog" and as such msn in their idiotic way have used "spanking" as a keyword that links to my page. In fairness, if someone was looking for spanking pictures and they came across a site called pictureessay.blogspot.com they'd think "ka-ching".

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about how I could maybe raise my rankings. The site normally appears around page 12 so for right now my goal is to become msn's top ranked spanking website without having any spanking pictures or using the word spanking once. If anyone with a webpage would like to link to http://pictureessay.blogspot.com using the word spanking as the link text I'd really appreciate it. You can check my blogger profile to show you that I really do own the other site.

I'll be posting some stuff about my various trips really soon.

And I should mention that Ciara Byrne has set out to find her inner Nimoy. So go check it out. (you'll geddit when you see the banner).
