Pandering
Today, I’m going to pander to the keyword search.
Oh yes I am…pander a go-go.
You know, it’s an odd thing to look at the visitor stats for my little ol’ blog and see what exactly brings folks around.
I’ll have you know, the NUMBER ONE reason people visit my blog is because of a single post I did on the geometric wonder known as the trapezoid.
I’m not even kidding. “Trapezoid” is the number one most searched keyword for Oh Fair New Mexico.
I think I may have helped schoolchildren around the globe by posting a photograph of a trapezoid in real life, my former office building.
Here it is:
There is she is, folks! A trapezoid! In real life! Right there!
Trapezoid, trapezoid, trapezoid (<- Now I'm just baiting the search engines....) What is a trapezoid? (< - still baiting) In case you don't know what a trapezoid looks like, I have something for you:
Ain’t she a beauty! An isosceles trapezoid! That’s HOT!
Why all the pandering? Well, I recently noticed via an image search that some kindergarten class in Washington DC has robbed me of my trapezoid-based SEO.
Oh hell no!
I’m taking back the trapezoid.
Love the trapezoid! Embrace the trapezoid!
If you’re a Brit, enjoy the trapezium!
There…that should do it.

Just writing to confirm this page still ranks pretty high when you do a Google Image search for “trapezoid”…

Hi akamarkman! Thanks for the update. Trapezoid is the number one search term bringing people to my blog. Too funny, I would never have guessed trapezoid would be so lucrative! :)
