Finding us through search engines

You used to be able to type the Look Machine in google, etc and not find us at all. But things have started to change. Now, you'll find mentions of us, and eventually you'll find our site too.

Our hosting service gives us reporting on what search terms are typed in when people click to our site. Most of them are fairly obvious.

In april, there were 9 different "search strings"

4 times people found us by typing "thelookmachine"

3 times people found us by typing "http://www.thelookmachine.com"

3 times people found us by typing "solarcult"

3 times people found us by typing "the look machine"

2 times people found us by typing "how's look your dream house" -- what, 2 times this happened???

And this is my ultimate favorite!
2 times people found our site by typing in "william hung and down's syndrome"
WHAT? -- not once, but twice this happened?

The rest of the search terms are pretty boring, but just so you know --
