It has been a little over 12 hours since I started the Guess the Search Competition so I thought it was time for an update.
The winner is…. no one…. yet
The search term has not been guessed to this point. In fact out of the top 5 search terms that bring traffic to ProBlogger only
- 1st Most Frequently used search term – yet to be guessed
- 2nd Most Frequently used search term – ‘ProBlogger‘ – Comment #16 (Robert) was first to get this
- 3rd Most Frequently used search term – yet to be guessed
- 4th Most Frequently used search term – ‘how to make money‘ – Comment #68 (Florchakh) was first to guess – quite a few others suggested similar variations on this
- 5th Most Frequently used search term – yet to be guessed
OK – so it looks like this game is a little harder than some thought it would be (including me).
So I’m going to give everyone a second guess here in this comment thread
I said I’d give a hint after 24 hours – but I think I’ll start doing so now because it could take a while!
I’ll start with a fairly general hint or two:
- The term we are after has two words in it
- It does not contain the word blog (or any variation of it – ie, not ‘blogging, blogs, blogger etc)
If there’s still not a winner in another 12 or so hours I’ll give some more hints that will hopefully be a little more obvious.
Remember there’s a month’s free enrollment in the Blog Mastermind Mentoring Program for the Winner – so get guessing!

**** – the moment I saw this I knew the answer was make money – but that was the first reply way above.
Ah well.
This is a great contest! I’m stumped.
How about, “Adsense Traffic”?
Good luck everyone!
What about ‘increase revenue’ or something similar?
I still think it’s “writing content” but how about:
“Yahoo Publishing” for a second try.
six figure??
writing online?

make money blogging
“About me”
make money
I’m going with “seo tips” not because I think it’s it but because it hasn’t been mentioned – I think the answer is “About me”, though “earn money” and “make money” I would have thought would be up there.
Sorry but i just have to comment.
People! Darren said in his other post that he’s looking for the
“search term (via comments below) _that brought in the most traffic to_ ProBlogger” in June.
Not the most popular search term that returned with Problogger in the top results of a Google Search.
In other words “earn money” and “money online” were the most popular search results in June. However, people who entered these keywords into google most probably didnt click on Problogger in search results.
He said above that “problogger” was number two yet it was searched much less than “make money” and “money online”. This means that its most probably a term related to blogging entered by bloggers.
So look for a term thats related to blogging and something bloggers were really searching for in June.
I havent come up with anything yet. I have no clue what the answer is.
