Search Terms
There is an activity log that is part of this blog system that records things like when each author logs in, posts new entries, and bad things like when people try to log in to the author section that shouldn't. It also logs terms that visitors search on. Not who does the searching, just the terms they submitted. There have been some quite interesting submissions. Some obvious, some that make you wonder if people really know what site they are on.
So, some of you standard search terms, things you would expect, authors names like "frick" or "godfrey". Or even searches on other turtler's names like "brendan godley", "alan rees" or "hamza". Topic related searchs that make sense, "loggerhead", "turtles", and "sharkbite".
Then there are people that apparently know that they are on a sea turtle related website, but perhaps are a little confused about what kind of information they are going to find in the blogs: "pictures", "jobs", "facts about turtles", "summary about turtle", "facts about them", "printable maps", and "sea turtle maps". Some of these items can be found on seaturtle.org, just not necessarily in the blogs. Then there are the more specific variations: "density-dependent effects on the reproductive success of the green turtle nesting population", "singer island florida", and "how many species of barnacles are there".
Then there are the downright whacky like "indiginous birthing practices". Don't ask me, I don't know where that one came from.
So now if anyone searches on any of those terms they'll get at least one hit :) Perhaps the search terms will give the Turtle Journal authors some ideas for new blogs.
Hey Mike, how many species of barnacles are there?
