Googleriffic
I’ve never been one to care much about who visits our blog or the quantity of traffic, but I do occasionally check the referrer stats from whatischurch.com to see how people get here. 
Google referrals are always high on the list, and some of them are hilarious searches. Here’s a sample from last month:
“What is church?” – No duh.
“tiny church” – No, I’m not just looking for a small church. I’m looking for a tiny church.
“calvary chapel pastor salaries” – Hmmm. Some pastor out there is shopping around for a new denomination.
“emceeing evangelical churches thanksgiving services” – Always been a dream of mine to emcee a thanksgiving service.
“how can I tell if I am misinterpreting my leadership” – Not by coming to my website, buddy.
“prophetic words from god for november december 2006” – Man, Google must have some dang powerful servers to answer that one.
“our greedy shallow culture” – Yup, you’ve come to the right place.
Now if I was really trying to increase traffic on my blog, I might feel compelled to say something like…
Emerging church. Emerging church. Emerging church.
Brian McLaren is a heretic. Brian McLaren is the best writer ever. Brian McLaren is, well, Brian McLaren.
Mark Driscoll has a big mouth. Mark Driscoll is a manly man preacher. Mark Driscoll says bad words.

Or maybe somebody's trying to figure out how much their pastor makes, since I'm sure the guy would be big on tithing. I wondered that myself after seeing the house my old CC pastor lived in. It wasn't on the golf course, but it wasn't far and it sure was nicer than the one I grew up in. But hey, CEO's are supposed to make alot of money, right?

That's some funny stuff Mike. I think you should update that list monthly. Brant Handsen is a celebrity? I wonder if he will auto-graph a baseball for me...
