Welcome Wayward Googlers!

As I write here on Couple Money, I look for ways to discover what topics interest readers so I can include more of them on the site.

Besides comments, emails, and tweets, I also check to see what phrases on search engines bring people over. It's fascinating to see what information people are looking for.

Many times I have a post that answers their specific question, but once in a while I'll see some search terms that are unexpected.

I thought it'll be fun to share a few of these different search terms that get people to Couple Money along with my thoughts.

“the it crowd moss”

What's insane is that this is due to 1 post and it was a personal finance carnival, not a long post on the show.

I am a fan of the show so it was interesting to see that the post is showing up when people are searching for IT crowd. I also discovered that Moss is more popular than Roy in my search results.

“rich people”

I was surprised to see this term come up over the last month. I haven't written anything specifically about rich people.

I dug further and discovered that an older post was the culprit. I did a review about Siebold's book How Rich People Think.

Guess more and more people are interested in the topic.

“french cuisine”

LOL, I think this would be a better fit for my food/lifestyle blog.

One weekly links post caused a bit of traffic to come in with this term. I'll never understand the nuances of Google.

“flying baby”

Oh, no – someone catch her!

It took me a moment to figure out it was a travel post for parents, but I still can't get the image of a baby being thrown out of my head.

Those were my favorite from the past month. What about you? How many of my fellow bloggers are surprised by wayward Googlers?
