Unfortunately, looking back at the past year, 90% of the hits to my blog show up as "not provided" which basically means Google isn't going to tell me what people were looking for unless I pay for advanced analytics instead of the free tools.
For the 10% of hits over this past year that I can see, some interesting patterns emerge.
A significant number of people found my blog searching for information about minimum password ages. It's the most popular post for the last three years since it's been there.
I have several posts about andragogy, and they come up quite regularly. A lot of people search for things like the difference between pedagogy and andragogy, how constructivism plays into andragogy, how to be a facilitator using an andragogical approach, and many different combinations of similar things. Oh, and a lot of people searching for information about andragogy are really, really bad spellers.
Interesting random things that people searched for and which ended up on my blog somewhere, which I may never understand include:
- beat with a shovel the weak
- ghost spam is free from the politics, we dancing like a paralytics
- rob barton brain
- syllabus is crap
