One of the things I have discovered as a result of working in web analytics, and playing with analysing my own site is that the search terms that people use to find my site are not what I would have expected. Top of the list (in various forms) are:

• Rails Migration
• Maven2 Internal Repository
• Leather Skirt
• Corset (no dress)

All of these surprised me. Rails Migration was the subject of two small posts I wrote a while ago and just goes to show that it’s a pretty hot topic (at least compared to other stuff on my site. Maven2 Internal Repository was a geekish post about setting up software repositories within your own network. I think this just goes to show how much people are crying out for documentation on this (admittedly very simple once you know it) subject.

The last two are a bit more surprising, till you look at the fashion photos that I have done, which includes shots of both a leather skirt and a corset (I can only assume the “no dress” search term was wishful thinking on the part of the seacher). This has lead me to think that if I mention here a conversation someone came up with in the pub, about having to work as a waitress for a wedding where the bride wore 10” platform shoes, a very tight PVC skirt, not covering everything, and a pair of handcuffs, then that alone will drive enough traffic to this very post for it to show up in the analysis of the site. I will let you know if it does…
