How nice – some bug pushed an Inside AdSense post from 2005 up the RSS feed and I learned that Google’s AdSense for Search program has a feature to show the top searches people performed (you’ll find it in AdSense -> Reports -> Advanced Reports -> Choose product: AdSense for Search -> Top queries data -> Display report). Finally I know what we’re all looking for here:
Keywords | # Queries |
---|---|
test | 210 |
118 | |
[personal name removed] | 108 |
api | 60 |
momordica | 54 |
google docs | 53 |
cloaking | 33 |
gmail | 31 |
Google Custom Search | 24 |
API | 18 |
hello | 17 |
None | 14 |
ajax | 14 |
blog | 14 |
adsense | 13 |
yahoo | 13 |
gmail chat | 10 |
wikipedia | 9 |
[personal name removed] | 9 |
games | 8 |
[personal name removed] | 8 |
seo | 8 |
7 | |
search | 7 |
porn | 7 |
But these are just the searches performed on the site, not those search queries done on Google. By contrast, if you look at the Google Analytics statistics for this blog (All reports -> Marketing Optimization -> Search Engine Marketing -> Keyword Considerations), you’ll see a different picture:
