Predicting the Past

I am always fascinated by the route some people take to my site.  Here is part of one day's "Search Term" list on how people came to my site.  Sarah Moon tops the list that day, but people often follow her back to my site.  Balthus brought them in as did Barraud, Han, and Vincent.  I get a lot of traffic from people searching painters.  I should post more.  Irving Penn and Diane Arbus and Shelby Lee Adams, get a lot of traffic, too.  Although there is only one search for Liliroze at the bottom of the page, week in and week out, I have visitors looking for her.  Some even came looking for me.

My favorites, though, are the ones I can't account for.  "Wicked Naked Wives" is a good one as is "Fourtyfour Girls Tits."  I wonder what I said to get me on that Google search list.  I wonder, too, if the person searching for "Old Nudes" was looking for old pictures or old women.  I think I know what "Endless Meds" was looking for.  Me, too.

You wouldn't believe how many people come from the search for "Existential Jokes."  And it is funny because I have used that search term before myself.  I like "Irony and Pity, Inc."  We can all guess how I end up in the "Sleeping for Weary" search, and the "Funny Olan Mills Pictures," too.

Most of all, though, I like "First Generation Feminist Art Photos."  I have had some surprising emails from people on this topic.

I wish I'd copied this every day.  Trying to make sense of it all is like reading tarot cards or tea leaves, only in this you are predicting the past.  I like that.  Predicting the past.  There's today's gem.  I'm ending on that.
