My blog loves meeting new people, and does so all the time, evidently.
WordPress has a nice little function that lets us know how people get introduced, including a summary of the search terms people use to find us. Any guesses as to what the top terms are?
Let me give you some hints. If you are an early follower of the blog (back in the crazy mid-2007′s and early 2008′s), you might remember a certain child-free post where I let ‘er rip–imprudently so, I admit–against the worst of the childfree movement. Don’t look for it–it’s hidden since the appearance of death threats. Yes, really. Death threats. You shall know them by their fruits.
Anyway, here’s the summary of how things come up on your search engine: most search engines (to my knowledge-correct me if I’m wrong) rank your web site and relevant key phrases/ tags/ subjects by a combination of the number of hits and how many people link to your web site. Well, a huge number of hits came from my friend BritGirl, a child-”free” devotee who found my blog entry who-knows-how (I was a green blogger then with a max of 5 hits a day) who betrays her own intolerance and exclusivity with every keystroke.
Any ideas yet? Write down your top guesses, given my preface, then check out the answers.Here they are:

LOL! I came nowhere close with my top four guesses. (I did get “natural family planning” right
) “Evil words” just made me laugh.
I know! “ignorance” and “evil words” are my favorite, as well as “I hate NFP.” I think it’s because I usually use a ton of tags, including ones similar to those search terms.
Oh my gosh, that is hilarious! “Evil words” was my favorite as well!
