Analyze this!

Apparently, according to my post labels, I haven't talked about google analytics in 2 years! *It's possible I've done other posts and just not labeled them.*

So today I checked it out- I have now been visited by every state in the US! Montana took the longest to come on board.. but I'm everywhere. Whuhahahhaaa. I also have many visitors from Canada, then the UK, France, Russia, and Germany are up there. I've been visited from all the continents (except Antarctica) and many many different countries. :) (of course these people never comment so it's probably random pageviews but whatevs.. makes me feel good.)

And then we get to the fun- search terms!

There are the usual thousand and one about Derek Roy and Travis Rycroft (still don't get that one) but I found some fun gems in there..

-"Hilarious randomness"- totally something I said, I'm sure. It was searched not once, but twice!

-"i hate shoes" - who knows? but I agree.

-"2legit Montreal" just amused me

-"bad ass Howie Dorough" ? Hahaha yeah right, the backstreet boy known as "Sweet D" is not BA , sorry.

-"you hurt me so bad but I keep coming back" - yep, Sabres, I'm talking about YOU!

-"explain the theme of rough all over again"... I have no idea about this but I find it intriguing and I may have to use that one of these days..

-"is my Blackhawks ticket legit"? Dude, I have no idea but for your sake I hope so.

-"Patrick Sharp and Samantha"-- YES.

-"Samantha hunt hockey Sabres"... how did you find out about that?

-"there's this that I like about hockey, my lad"- again I have no idea but I need to keep this and use it one day.

.... and there ya have it. All-Star skillz tomorrow. I will be watching (I think) and live-blogging (I plan to anyway)

Ciao!

Happy Birthday to me! (or my blog anyway)

Aww I just realized that my humble little blog is a year old today! I started blogging about the Sabres and hockey in general a year ago today. (probably around
this time too LOL)



Here are my 1 year anniversary stats:

* 3,590 Visits -- * 9.81 Visits / Day
* 4,832 Pageviews
* 1,382 Visitors

Visitors from 39 Countries/Territories
These are the top 10 by visitors:
United States
Canada
Australia
Malaysia
United Kingdom
India
Sweden
Japan
Spain
Germany

Also on the list are Egypt, Morocco, United Arab Emirates and Haiti, among others. How interesting.

Sabretooth's House is my #1 referral site. :) Thanks, Anne and S(h)ara!

And the best part of google analytics- the Keyword search! (there are 266 of them!)
Top 10 search terms:
Derek Roy Girlfriend 38 visits
Travis Rycroft 38 visits
Rick Jennerant 29 visits (yes, i know it's misspelled!)
Into the Boards Blog Sabres Hockey 11 visits
face first into the boards 7 visits
Nathan Gerbe 7 visits
Derek Roy's girlfriend 6 visits
Fedorov or Federov 5 visits
Sidney Crosby 5 visits

I'm surprised Sid ranks so low. Must be because I'm a hater.

My top 5 favorite search terms: (in no particular order)
Ghetto sentences
Crosby Sabres Bullshit (told ya I'm a hater!)
Make horrid faces into lovely game (maybe this should be my new hockey humor)
Sabre shave gel
Where does Patrick Sharp like to party *I REALLY WANT TO KNOW***

I didn't count them all but I have worlds of inquiries about edge shave gel and commercials about it. I think I only mentioned it once but there are many many questions about it. Interesting.

It's been a great first year, and I hope for many many more to come. thanks for all the reading and searching and commenting, my great friends! :)

I am way too easily amused

To whoever found my blog by searching "ghetto sentences", you are AWESOME.

Still gettin the love from Arcade.. identify yourself, please! You seem to spend a lot of time on my site, it's only fair..

And to the seeker who wants to know "where does Patrick Sharp party"?... when you find out, call me! (or I'll call you, we can go together)

Good times.

Visitors

So I was checking Google Analytics, as I often do.. and I see that in the last month, I have had 31 visits (approx 1 per day) from Arcade. Is it someone I know? Please ID yourself, my friend. If it is not someone I know, then we should meet as I live 5 mins from Arcade.

:)

I'm still getting mad hits from Saskatoon too. Holla to my buddies out that way too, eh?

I dunno where that last sentence came from, please ignore it and let's move on.

That's about all I have for the moment.

My humble little blog has had :



* 2,600
Visits

* 945
Absolute Unique Visitors

* 3,549 pageviews

since March 10, 2008.

I've been visited by friends in 37 States, 8 Canadian Provinces and 28 Countries.

The top 10 Search terms: (and number of times searched)
1. travis rycroft 34
2. rick jennerant 29
3. derek roy girlfriend 22
4. into the boards blog sabres hockey 10
5. derek roy's girlfriend 6
6. derek roys girlfriend 5
7. fedorov or federov 5
8. face first into the boards 4
9. sidney crosby 3
10. travis rycroft girlfriend 3

the most often variated search terms seem to be about Travis Rycroft, Don Cherry's suit choices, Edge shave gel and rogaine commercials, and of course the never ending girlfriend queries.

My personal favorites are "rubbing face with salt" (sounds painful), "pinball face" (what the?) and "lindy peacey" (Lindy please do not peace out, we need yoU!)

And that concludes an extensive review of Google Analytics. I need a shower, a good read and some sleep. Peace.

Crazy

Eeek do we really have to wait another day until the Sabres are on again? Ugh.

I was playing with Google Analytics earlier (inspired by Shara's ramblings of earlier and since I haven't done it in a while I thought I'd dig it..

October 9 was a popular day for my humble blog. I got 57 pageviews! WHOAAA!

And seriously, people who search my blog- I DON'T KNOW WHERE TRAVIS RYCROFT IS PLAYING THIS YEAR. I have not spoken to Rykes in more than 2 years. Got it? I know he's hot, I know he's a great dude, he's a fun hockey player. What I *DON'T* know is anything about his current life. But you keep searching it. So more power to you but just be aware that this blog is not a hotspot for Travis Rycroft sightings. ;)

I think the best search term I saw was "heatherB style". I did use that exact phrase once but it's a cool one since HeatherB is awesome.

And I had a visitor from the United Arab Emirates- how cool is that? (they actually have hockey there too, btw) and one from some weird hard to pronounce town in south central Russia. Fun times.

And that's really the coolness of the day.

P.S. My sis comes home from Iraq in 2 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

what the?

I was checking google analytics for the first time in a while today and found the randomest search term-
" derek let's have some fun

That's awesome. What does it mean? I have no clue, but someone found this blog by searching that exactly. Wow I justy tried searching that and went through 10 pages on google, and have yet to find my blog. Nice.

Another one I found funny was "i am over michael phelps". Now I actually wrote that but it's still funny that someone found my hockey blog (well mostly hockey anyway interrupted briefly by Olympic swimmers) by searching for people who are over Phelps. Quality.

And last, but not least, I have had 18 people find my blog by searching "rick jennerant" - yes, I know I misspelled his name, and fixed it later but never went back to correct that one and it seems to be quite popular. Interesting.
