Default Google Analytics

I gave in last night and decided to install Google analytics on here only on the home page just to see which sites were driving traffic here.

I wasn't really interested in search terms or search engines, just external links.

I checked this morning and was really surprised to see google's traffic compared to the other search engines.




I know they're popular but they still often loose out on many things to Yahoo, but 90.36% is massive considering the site sits 2nd in MSN and Yahoo but only 8th in Google.
It's only been a few hours and it could balance itself out over time but I didn't expect to see google's dominance in such force.

Google's a Monster lol, They always send like 10 times the traffic all the other SE's bring.

Just wondering, What does google lose out on to Yahoo?

No in general, Flickr, del.icio.us. Just because people that know about the web use google because it gives them what they want. Many 'young' web users still use yahoo due to them being one of the first and biggest with chat sites and people that like their music and entertainment stuff still use MSN.

Just because we know that Firefox is far superior to IE, IE is still used by more users worldwide.

I love these results, they so funny and pointless at the same time.

I've have 12 hits from the search term 'toileting monkey'.

Class!!
