The greatest thing about my website stats have to be the ‘search terms’. (The words people type in a search engine to eventually find my website) – Every day, there’s at least one search term that makes me laugh and wonder “what on earth was this person thinking?”

Today, I’ll share the top 10 of funny search terms people have actually used to find my site….

Number 10:

“Amish” – This is actually one of the top search terms used to find Jurino.com! Every day, there’s at least one person hoping to find some information about the Amish. I’m guessing it’s because of this post about Everett Bogue. I even get this in Russian sometimes, see: “амиши”

Number 9:

“Zen lessons in the Bible” – It’s only natural that one should consult Google for this search, as the Bible surely won’t give you any answers on how to achieve a Zen-like state.

Number 8:

“When do kids stop asking why?” – I’m guessing this comes from a new parent whose little baby just turned into a questioning toddler. Is there an end to this misery? Google – tell me please!

Number 7:

“What do minimalists eat?” – Yes, “we, minimalists” are all of one species and our diet is entirely different than that of humans. Someone might have had self-proclaimed minimalists over for dinner and wondered whether or not to make anything or just put empty plates on the table…

Number 6:

“Jurino no TV” – I’m guessing that would be me, making this a legitimate search, but it’s still funny to see it typed this way. I know many people have nicknames for others, especially when their last names are difficult to pronouce (like mine). Apparently, somewhere I’m called ‘Jurino no TV’ and that’s fine with me.

Number 5:

“What are the things we have to consider?” – I don’t know whether this is a full search, or just part of one. Yes, what ARE the things we have to consider? If anyone knows, please tell me!

Number 4:

“Will my friend know if I deleted his post?” – I have no idea how this relates to any of my writing, but somehow, a person wanted to know this and instead, found… me! Bummer!

Number 3:

“God doesn’t do minimalism” – Apparently, someone thinks He doesn’t – and then searched this on Google, and found my blog, on which I say that He does. I don’t think we’ll become friends any day soon.

Number 2:

This is a tie between 2 funny search terms featuring other bloggers… they are: “Nina Yau karate lessons” and “Beans Babauta” – you learn something new every day… I didn’t know Nina gave Karate lessons, nor did I know that Leo’s ‘real’ first name was actually Beans. Or maybe someone is trying to get Leo Babauta’s killer recipe for baked beans. I don’t know, but it’s still funny.

Number 1:

*drumroll*…. The funniest search term for Jurino.com is…..
“hide Facebook account from my wife”. The silly person trying to hide his online activity from his spouse, lands here and instead finds advice on how to live faithfully and -oh, while you’re at it- delete your social media accounts alltogether. I can’t help but feel a little sorry for him ;)

Bloggers……….. please tell me YOUR site’s funniest search term! I love to hear about them!

  1. This made me laugh out loud, thanks for sharing! :)

    Some of mine:

    “What do you do when you smash your hand” Ouch.

    “how to have a tv in your bathroom?”

    “naked star running sport” It’s a sport!?

    “i want to do something naked”

    “my mother naked” I… don’t even want to know.

    “how do i get oil out of my camera” Well, that sucks.

    “nakid pepl liking other nakid pepl” (How!? I don’t misspell words like that.)

    …. and basically a lot of searches in regards to nakedness. Someone even googled my name with the word “naked”. Sigh.

    Laura – that’s hilarious! Thanks for sharing..!
    After seeing your list, especially the last point featuring your name, I guess ‘Jurino no TV’ isn’t all that bad ;)

    Best wishes from the Netherlands!

  3. Very funny Jurino! I had one come up one day, and it was “very” funny to me when you know the context of the word in the region I am in. Let me explain. I live in the southern US. There is a term used, mostly by people of color who refer to “their nappy hair”. Well, I got a search one time about “can I make money from a nappy cake business?” I busted out laughing, until I then realized it must’ve been someone from London or elsewhere asking about making “cakes” from diapers, otherwise known as nappies!
    Just goes to show how our cultural differences make such a difference, even if we are all speaking the same language!
    Although, in reference to the comment above, I think naked really just has one meaning. ;-)
    Have a great weekend!

      *lol* Bernice.. that’s a good one! :)
      You’re right.. I’m in the category of the ‘nappy heads’ myself – especially when I let my ‘fro grow out and everybody keeps reminding me (but that’s an entirely different story)

      And yes – nappies in the UK mean diapers! There are more of those words that have (mostly funny!) different meanings between the UK and the US..

      I’d still like to know how your website would refer to either diapers or afros? Hahaha..
      Best wishes!
