Rachael Furn is sexy?! » February 9th, 2008 · See comments
Like many webmasters, I take a keen interest in my site’s statistics. My stats software of choice is Clicky, though I also use Mint. They both allow me to see details on which sites are linking to me, how many visitors I have, and what those visitors look at. They also allow me to see what people are typing into search engines to get to my site.
I’m used to seeing weird search queries (and by ‘weird’, I mean ’sexual things to do with a banana’), but one search query today caught my eye for a different reason.

Are my eyes deceiving me, or does that actually say “Rachael Furn is sexy” ? Not that I mind, in fact, I’m quite flattered. It’s just a little creepy that someone would type that into Google. I thought I’d do some further investigation and see exactly what shows up, so off to Google I went.

I’m sorry, what did you say? I think I need to go back to the opticians, because unless I’m mistaken, Google was suggesting I don’t know how to spell my own name. Who is this Rachel Fern person? I’ve heard of her, but I have no idea who she is. No, that’s not who I mean! I mean me, you ignorant search engine!
And for the record, the page that Google shows as a search result for the above search is my blog entry titled “5 apps I can’t live without.”
Who would write that? There are some pervy people out there, and they are obviously after your body.
I bet Aisling was the one who searched that. She is the pervy person after your body!
The first person to pop into my head after reading that was actually Aisling!
I admit: it was me. No, just kidding. But as Kaylee and Jenny have already stated, my first instincts were also that of Aisling. But, now that I think of it, perhaps you already have her IP labelled?
Stop guessing it was me, guys! Because it so wasn’t.
LOL! That’s something strange to be googling for. So you are sexy, hmm??
Haha, sure, Aisling. As far as I know, it seems very much an Aisling-esque thing to do.
Well… I don’t think it’s bad to be linked with being sexy. I used to get a lot of hits from people googling candiihost -.- All because there was one commenter who mentioned that …
But Rachael, you are sexy!
Lol, I’m seconding Vera’s comment…it’s definitely NOT bad at all to be linked with being sexy. XD
all i have to say is; work it girl ^^
I’d be equally flattered and as creeped as you were. But hey, no one can deny their own brand of sexy
