Search falls into two camps – branded and non-branded keywords. This is a bit disappointing, and we should work on that. ![]() Why (and how?) do People Come to Bookseer?ĩ6% of our traffic comes from referrals, and only 4% comes from search. Oh and The Bible is quite a fun one, in terms following the author names attached to it: Ignoring the home page, I think that means we have had 104,883 different titles entered into the system.Īnd, whilst you might think lots of them have just been entered once (by the author?!) it is not until the 44,008th title (”كتاب السير”) that we start to see single searches. I am also amazed and thrilled that we have had 104,886 different pages viewed in the period since launch. The Road? On the Road? 1984? What a literate bunch of people with great taste inhabit the site. I’m delighted that the top 10, whilst influenced by Meyer and Rowling, contains some of the greatest works of literature from the 20th and 21st Century. In fact, I’m certain that’s what lots of people do, and this is why we have such a diverse spread of titles ( over 104,000 different books have been entered into the Bookseer). I have a little theory that many people come to the site and test out their favourite book and see what comes back. Rowling: “Harry Potter” is, obviously, not the name of a book. I find it interesting that whilst people search on a book name (”Twilight”) for Stephenie Meyer, they do a generic one for J.K. Obviously the two big titles are the Twilight and Harry Potter series. The only title to receive more than 1,000 page views as a landing page is The Dispossessed, just outside the top 20. Note that these appear to be genuine searches (rather than being distorted, for example by referrals from popular sites direct to results pages).
