November search strings.

[McDuffies]

Heh. I knew he was up to something.

Jamie, just what was the origin of people coming to your comic thinking it was porn?

Years ago (seriously, it was years ago) I mentioned that I didn't like porn in a rant, then a few months later I noticed alot of search strings to my site included 'porn' in them.
I was like 'wtf, mate!' and posted the search strings in another rant and then said there was noporn here, and people looking for it here should give it up.
Big mistake.
I've been getting hits for the stuff ever since. Kinda like a running gag.

I can almost imagine it:

"It's a year 2002. A guy looks for posn on google. He gets a link to a site. There's also given a part of text where keyword is found and it goes something like this:

...I don't really like porn anyway...

Where porn is bolded because it was a keyword. He thinks:

"Hey! There may be some porn on this site! I'll check it out!"

He clicks on link, gets to Jamie's page, reads some comics, dissapoints and then goes away.

Halfa' yeaf later, the same guy decides to look for porn on Google. Enters porn. Gets a link to a site. Under the link there's a text that might be going like this:

... so, those are my search strings. I don't know why everybody's looking for porn on this site. I insist that there's no porn on this site!...

And normally, a guy thinks:
"I'd better check out this site! There might be some porn on it" "

I don't know why, but this iseems funny to me.

[Keffria]

The really funny thing is that sites like that are usually on page 60-something or higher -- I know, because I googled "final fantasy hentai" just to see where my comic was on the list, that it was getting so many hits ... and I never found it.

Some people are just desperate for a good porn site, I guess...

Waaaaaait, so is the moral of the story, "mention the word porn and/or hentai on your site, and you'll increase your hits"?

My numbers have been dwindling from 130 to 110/day since the week began, I must try something...

Or I could just update. That usually works.

[Matt Lim]

When I start my comic back up, I am so putting the word porn somewhere in my site just for the kicks of dissappointing perverts .

[Wethamster]

I didn't mean to, I swear...! (You'll notice that I took it off my page title.)

I was getting 70+ hits per day - and that's good, for my site - but I felt so dirty...

*edit* And then I went to post something amusing as Evil Keffria, only to realize that I can't remember the password for the e-mail address I used for the name... Dammit!

O_o Only that manny hits a day! THIS INJUSTICE MUST BE CORECTED. ^^ Don't pay any atention to the person on your right thats going to plug in, nope..... *jedi mind trick*Pay no atention to me pluging in your comic. *jedi mind trick*

Aww... thanks!

But you know, I thought 70 hits was pretty darn good. My average is around 20, I think.

My daily hits are about 500-700, that and I think your comic diserves more recognision.

Pretty much, I've just added the word hentai into my header just to try it out for fun. ^,^ If it works I'll keep it there though.

Hits? Or visits? Are you both sure you're reffering to the same thing?

I once put some rant about porn on my site, but it was soon burried under my new messages, and I didn't even get one porn hit from it.

I'm tempted to do it again .

[Wethamster]

do it, ^_~ i dare ya.

By the way, I was speaking of hits not the unique views a day, then I whould have to say I get about 40-45 views a day.

I have returned, be very afraid.

The hair cuts comes from a drawing I did of Lexi with short hair. In the picture desc. I mention he got a new haircut and style. Ever since then I get all sorts of hair searches.

I mean visits... I'm not *that* unpopular...

[Somesuch]

1 2 16.67% anime personality quizzes <Had a link to one in my blog, but the blog is now gone.>
2 1 8.33% D <What's this got to do with Somesuch?>
3 1 8.33% Pixie characters <Have one of those, yes.>
4 1 8.33% WERE-LION <Tell me you're not the person trying to become one again? >
5 1 8.33% heather kidd < 8) >
6 1 8.33% nicholas kandor <Two characters, so maybe they were looking for Somesuch?>
7 1 8.33% old x-men character pics <Um. Not at Somesuch. And I don't know how they got this via a search, either. >
8 1 8.33% pixie height and short <Er... I don't think I've got anything like that at Somesuch...>
9 1 8.33% shapeshifter multiple personalities <Multiple personalities? Eh... with Stryke maybe, but she isn't a shapeshifter...>
10 1 8.33% somesuch comic <Yaaaaay!>
11 1 8.33% spirit bird <Was my blog. Byebye blog!>

Yep, that's right. Somesuch isn't a very popular comic (most likely greatly due to the fact that it updates utterly randomly and not very frequently). However, it does appear that some people have actually been looking for it lately. I think I'm scared.

As for my own visits, I think I had a total of 40 for November, and only in the low hundreds for hits. I won't likely be able to get more comics up till after finals, which will probably set me back on the visits again (for a long while I was getting only about 10 or fewer per month).

[Ti-Phil]

1 2 20.00% katt chuan age (Is it so rare to find Katt's age?)
2 1 10.00% Castlevania Webcomics (talking of school project helps?)
3 1 10.00% RPGTV (Wasn't there another webcomic with that name?)
4 1 10.00% animated waterslides (uh.....is it about the waterslide drawing?)
5 1 10.00% french webcomic (well..I speak french)
6 1 10.00% mario flash (this one puzzles me)
7 1 10.00% rise of the mushroom kingdom (I did talked about it once in July)
8 1 10.00% stars war vador (Hey! He writes Vador like me!)
9 1 10.00% volet (well...at least one is accurate)

I don't think your read that quite right, read it again and notice I wrote HITS and not VISITS ..... It'd help if you updated a little more often, I'm kinda waiting for whenever Rugg updates. *checks everyday just to make sure*

[Matt Lim]

When I start my comic back up, I am so putting the word porn somewhere in my site just for the kicks of dissappointing perverts .

Ya, I was wondering when you'd do that. *taps foot impatiently*

Um...yeeeeah, I've been a lazy bushido bum. I'm probably going to start fresh with a new story and new characters. Watch out for my shameless plug sometime in January when I start it up.

*starts holding her breath*

1. 43 51.19% final fantasy hentai
2. 10 11.90% Final Fantasy Hentai
3. 4 4.76% Final Fantasy hentai
4. 4 4.76% final fantasy 7 hentai
5. 2 2.38% final fantasy 8 hentai
6. 2 2.38% hentai final fantasy
7. 2 2.38% hentai final fantasy stories
8. 1 1.19% COMIC HENTAI

14. 1 1.19% com hentai final fantasy
15. 1 1.19% fantasy hentai
16. 1 1.19% final fantasy (hentai)
17. 1 1.19% final fantasy 10 hentai
18. 1 1.19% final fantasy 7 8 hentai
19. 1 1.19% final fantasy 9 hentai
20. 1 1.19% final fantasy HENTAI

...thus confirming my worst fears about humankind's morality level - as well as proving that anyone who is looking for something on the internet should not use a search engine.
