So, I recently clicked the little button in blog settings to allow my blog to show up on search engines. Given that the blog url is incredibly non-anonymous, my name isn't exactly common, and there are several pictures of me on the very top of the page, it seemed silly to think that not allowing my blog to show up on Google searches was actually protecting my privacy. You can't exactly protect what isn't there.
I didn't really give it any thought or expect a dramatic or even noticeable increase in blog traffic. However, I am now pleased to announce the first random Google search that brought complete strangers to my little blog. The phrase? "Why yes I do occasionally break out into ninja moves"
People, if I'd known I could expect such awesomeness, I would have made the change far earlier.
I love random google searches. They make me heart happy.
