In this little hobby of mine called blogging I find the way people find my blog to be absolutely fascinating. Some of you come here because you know me or are related to me or know someone that knows me, so there's a common thread and it makes sense that you might check in every once in a while to see what I'm writing about. But it's the group of people that don't know me that I always wonder how did you find my blog? Did you stumble across a link to my blog on another site? Did someone recommend it to you? Are you a Blogger.com reader and did you find my blog in their directory? Or some other webring that I linked in to?
Maybe.
But mostly? Mostly new people find my blog with a Google search. And do you know the most popular search that leads people that I don't know to my blog is for? Buttertarts. Yes, folks. There are lots and lots and lots of people around the globe searching for something to do with buttertarts (a recipe, I'm sure) and inevitably they land on my blog. All because of this one post back in July. Check out the original entry here: Ode to the Buttertart
