    What's the creepiest keyword you've seen bringing people to your hubs.

    I just had "cancer patients with tramp stamps nude" and it creeped me out.

      Interesting. Analytics refuses to tell me anything about my search terms. What's up with that? Am I looking in the wrong menu options? Where did you find it?

      Sounds like you dumped all your Scrabble tiles into a hat, drew them out one at a time...and typed the result.  That's as good a strategy as anything I have!  I am off to dig my dusty old game out of the attic.  While I'm up there, I may as well grab the Oiuja Board.  Hahaha

      This one definitely tops anything on my search list:  tubby young girls naked

    No creepy ones but one funny one: crying in boot camp

    How do you find out which keywords they're using?  I see traffic sources, but not keywords.

    I just found "I want to kill my father and my uncles and my aunt."  OMIGOSH none of my pages are anything like that. Purely freaked me out!

    This led them to my page about (I'm assuming) the Death Card in Tarot. Which is about as removed from their search as we are from planet OGLE-2005-BLG-390Lb. (Allegedly the most distant planet in our Universe.)

    OK, the best one I found today was:
    can a felon be a massage therapist in texas

    I live in Texas. Remind me not to get a massage.

    Runner up:
    i have itchy bumps on my legs

      EEeek!

      I also found "my dirty family"

      And Laura Ingalls was punished (with quotes around the "was punished" part. I'm torn between wondering if that was some creepy BDSM dream or some psycho looking for an excuse to beat their children. "If it was good for Laura, it's good for you!"

    "what is an alcoholic nose" which is bizarre since I write about dog things, and there were 3 of them!

    It must be that the dogs with best sense of smell brought these people in  on that search term - weird. I never looked that in depth before.

  7. paradigmsearch profile image62
    paradigmsearchposted 10 years ago

    OK, all better.

    I was looking under "behavior" sub "site search" sub "search terms".

    "Acquisition" was where to go... Alas, all of mine are boring.

  8. MelRootsNWrites profile image87
    MelRootsNWritesposted 10 years ago

    These are way creepier than mine.  The best I could come up with was "spy my mom".

  9. Erin Mellor profile image62
    Erin Mellorposted 10 years ago

    I had a range of variations of "itchy, weepy spots on bum". I opted not to use that Intel to build a page to meet the needs of those searchers.

    "milhouse porn" as in "milhouse" from The Simpsons... On a related note, I think I need to stop using the term "anal retentive" in my articles. Runner up: "sexy grover costume"

    I also get a ton of weird (and sometimes terrifying) dog poop/vomit related search terms. This is my personal favorite: "puppy stool is very rubbery and hard to break"

      I don't get it.  Grover is always sexy.

    How do you find this stuff out? I'm super curious after shay-marie's reply! Hehe

      I use regular Google analytics to see keyword search terms for Hubpages. Google Webmaster Tools is better as it shows more keyword data, but we can't use it for Hubpages as far as I know.

        You can use Webmaster Tools with your Hubpages domain. I've had mine set up since I joined.

          What method did you use to verify site ownership? I couldn't figure it out.

            Maffew Jamesposted 10 years agoin reply to this

            Because you have Google Analytics set up, you can verify it with that.

    This would seem to be the weirdest search phrase lately. "ben 10 alien force sex"

    I'm just shaking my head here.

    Okay weird, but not as creepy as the last one - how to make my dog poop

    1. Solaras profile image85
      Solarasposted 10 years agoin reply to this

      Even weirder...I know the answer to that question.  Maybe I should make a hub about it.

    I don't have any creepy ones or any odd ones really except for this one that baffled me "Why is hedgehog losing fur".  Ok then...

    Where can you go to see the keywords?  And can you add keywords?

    Country-Sunshineposted 10 years ago

    The only unusual one I have is "addicted to frozen milk".  It goes to my hub on ice cream, so it is not as weird when the context is known.

    I use Google Analytics with Hubpages. On your Google Analytics page, click Admin at the top of the page. Below ACCOUNT, click the down arrow, then click Create a New Account. Follow the directions to create the new account. To learn more, read http://hubpages.com/learningcenter/sett … analytics.
