Keywords users use to find sites

[temi]

Once I looked at the logs of this site and the most popular keyword used that brough traffic here was Vedas Guerrin or something like that... anyway it was the name of and actress, I tried to find out why as I have not been promoting this keyword, actually never head of the site, it turned out that there was a webmaster, who worked on that actress's site and was discussing it in a thread.....

Aparently according to compete, the top keywords, people use to find some of the most popular sites are listed below. (the list below was copied from blogStorm) the one I found most interesting is the one for WordPress

...most popular keyword used that brough traffic here...

The long tail is very good to capture, especially if you run a concurrent article page and forum.
Or even just using the forum, you can (wow Temi, you are good @ your job!) select the
best long tails and create a "sticky" for that post it is associated with.

Nice tip, will try it out tomorrow

Cool. Log files are a great SEO tool that many site admins do not use (or have not even heard of).

Can you create a thread in the SEO forum here for that "sticky test"? That would be a great "test study" to
follow. I'll digg and stumble it too!
