Long Tail Search
This article isn’t to teach you about Internet marketing, but to share my amusement at some of the searches which have brought people to my site this week.
The long tail is a type of statistical distribution where a high-frequency population is followed by a low-frequency population which gradually “tails off”. The idea of blogging for Internet Marketing is to provide articles which will attract readers who are not undertaking obvious searches to your website where hopefully they will click on your advertising or buy your product (please take that as a hint!). These phrases individually are unlikely to account for a great deal of searches, but when taken as a whole, can provide significant traffic.
Here are some of the searches which I found amusing and brought people to this site this week:
- put+laminate+floor+in+the+wrong++way
- venting from a bathroom
- pimlico flats screaming headline
- ? qns eqbt
- where to get cement from in pimlico
- victorian style flats that need work london
- weird lettings london
- address of sex place in london
- anyone got frauded renting house in pimlico
- best places to have sex in london
- how much does it cost to run a vent axia kitchen fan
- leaking radiator lamiate floor
- letting agents+indian
- pimlico plumbers sexual harassment case
- residential backwater westminster
- the renting of the flat of immobility
- thermal expansion of carpet tiles

Thanks for clearing that up Nick. I had assumed the ‘long tail’ referred to a long tail of posts going back in time. Probably others assume the same thing.

But Nick, I thought you excelled in “weird lettings london”
A local lettings agent secretly confessed that their best tenants come from Craigs List – “a bit wacky”.
