Keep in mind, my site is "local" in its focus, so my numbers are not *high* in
the grand scheme of internet traffic.
The googlebot visits my site several times a day, among hundreds of other ISP
addresses - if that is the correct term.

My point was, that my site tends to rank high on all the major search engine
results, for a wide variety of keywords, that in many instances were words used
in a story posted. For example, I did an opinion piece that referenced Jimmy
Swaggert (sic because it was spelled wrong in the original post). Now, I've had
surfers find my site using "Swaggert" in their search.

My "real visitors" live in the municipality my site serves.
