Keyword of the Year: Blogsexual

Posted 5/30/08 - Kellex

This is a completely random post that almost has nothing to do with sports but we just found it slightly amusing and a little informational at the same time.

We were skimming through our analytics the other day, checking out new keywords that were pointing to us on Google and we noticed that someone had used the keyword "blogsexual" and somehow found us! I about dropped dead when I remembered that I had used the term in a previous post about bloggers in comparison with radio personalities.

When Google indexed us, it pulled up this term from the post and the comments section. If you search for "blogsexual" you will see that we show up first! Hah! The other sites below us are obviously in the "nasty-zone" and I refuse to talk anymore about them except that we dominated the hell out of them on their own term.

Not being an SEO pro, can anyone explain how just these 2 uses could put us in the top spot in Google? I'm aware of the fact that Google is able to pull keywords from comments, but I guess I didn't think they had this much pull especially from a blog lacking a PageRank.

So the one lesson you can take from this post is that keywords can be pulled from comments and using random terms like "blogsexual" can spark someone's imagination and may land you a top spot in Google! Woo hoo!
