Stats and Search Engine Terms

ATSTP stats for last 30 daysFun with ATSTP stats! I decided to create a stat graph of search terms that found my blog in the last 30 days. I wanted to do it all time, but in the last 30 days I’ve sort of “frozen” my categories a bit. I started blogging about celebrities with possible Borderline Personality Disorder when Britney started her meltdown, so until this year I had stayed away from that subject. What I found was that (unfortunately) many people on the Internet are fascinated with the lives (and mental states) of celebs. When I launched my first article on a celeb (Britney Spears) with possible BPD, my blog accesses/hits jumped through the roof. So, over to the right you can find a graph of a categorized (by me) version of my stats by percentage for the last 30 days.

As you can see, searches on celebrities with BPD (such as “Britney BPD, ” “celebrities bpd, ” “heather mills borderline, ” “angelina jolie BPD,” “famous bordrelines,” etc.) represent 60% of the search engine terms that hit my blog. Sad, but true.

Lying and liars represent 9% of the remaining 40%. So, of the remaining non-celeb searches, those looking for help with lying or liars and BPD equal 21% of the remaining total.

Pain or pain relief and BPD represents 17% of the non-celeb searches.

If you combine Coping skills and DBT, those represent about 21% of the total.

I find it interesting what people are looking for regarding BPD. It’s too bad that most are seeking information on celebs. Of course, I have started catering to that crowd – why? Because I must to get traffic. I hope that those people will stick around and read more about the disorder – instead of just looking for gossip.

I also hope to make this an on-going analysis…

  • I have found that about half of the people finding my blog are looking for images of Eeoyee or self-harm. I’m sure they don’t even read my blog. They just do a yahoo image search, take the image off my blog, and go about their day.

    Other than that I get a lot of people looking for blogs about Britney Spears too. She seems to be a very popular search item.

    The weirdest thing is I get a lot of people looking for information about picking scabs. I once said I kept picking at a scab on my leg in a blog entry, and now I get all the scab-pickers.

  • Well, hey – scab pickers and Eeoyee and self harm searchers. You know, you never know what you get on the Internet. Thanks for commenting again. I feel we have some weird conversation going on here. I’m sad that most (60%) of my “viewers” are looking for car wreck celebs, but I guess we have to accept the way things are. I have seen that there are some major fans on your site – so don’t depair – you’re making a difference!

  • [...] OK, it’s stat time again. I analyzed the keywords from the last 30 days. Unfortunately, some variant of “celebrities with (some) personality disorder” makes up 77% (versus 60% last month) of the keywords that hit my blog in the last 30 days. Wow. I guess we know what people want – dirt on celebs, I suppose. A couple of positive things happened versus last month: [...]
