How about processing the accesslog and showing the keywords that the search engines are actually hitting teh site with so we can punch those up and rank higher on what people a really using to find us. I have a start on this, but don't like where it's going, so was going to rewrite it. If you'd like the code, I can zip it up for you.

kristen polGreat idea. It'd be nice to have all this stuff in one place. I'm going to put a tab on the node view page so that the "SEO Info" that shows up in the block will also show up on a SEO Info tab. This would be good to add to there! I'm happy to have your code as a starting point. I have pulled out keywords from referrers awhile back so I have some other code I can dig up too.
Thanks!

nancydruHere it is. Sorry it is such a mess and for D5; I originally did way too much for a single module, but the search extract is largely compartmentalized. One major problem is that the search engines each have their own format (we could use a standard), so there needs to be specialized code for each one. Shoot, Google even has different formats depending on which language is used.
But I did get some very interesting information from it. It seems that no matter how much keyword planning we do, users find different ways to find our sites. The first site I used this on wasn't even getting hit on the top three keywords we thought would find us.

kristen polThanks! I hope I can at least look at this sometime this week. I've got a lot of "real" work to do but it would be nice to get this in as this into a beta2 release soon.

nancydruOkay. I was originally playing with this as an add-on to the Web Links module, but I think it fits yours better. My current think was to break this up into probably two modules - one for statistics, the other for the search keywords. I wanted to be able to store and accumulate info on the keywords because accesslog deletes its data after a given time.

kristen polI've added it into beta2 and tried it on my kristen.org site and it looks like it's working!! Can you try?
