    For those of you using the WebSearch for AdSense, I'm curious if anyone would like the ability to see who is searching for what from your site?

    That would be pretty nice- would google do it though? Or would it be something your thinking about creating?

    I could make a tool to do it, but so far I'm not really into it... It has no value to me personally (not something I would use), so...

    Shawn, What is "WebSearch for AdSense"? It would be interesting to know this detail but of very limited value in my mind. We spent too damn much time looking at every kind of, mostly useless, data all day long now. Who needs more useless data?

    Bob, Google recently rolled out a new program for AdSense users. You can now add a Google web and/or site search function to your site. The search results include adwords listings at the top and bottom and revenue from them is shared just like content targeted AdSense ads.

    Thanks guys, I was aware of that but hadn't picked up the name yet. Shawn I know you have a site search tool, but I use Atomz search on several site that I operate or that we have designed for others. They provide very complete statistics on what people are searching for. Does anyone else use Atomz?

    I wouldn't mind seeing the queries of what people are searching for for WebSearch although I get so few searches (maybe 5-10 per day) that I don't think it matters much. I like data regardless of whether its usefull or not, don't ask me why...

    Compar, I tried Atmoz a month ago and I thought it worked really well and I liked the real-time reporting of search queries. Some interesting searches too :) . I took it off though b/c right around the time I put it on I was having some issues in my log files about an inflated # of page views so I removed Atomz thinking this might have had something to do with it. Turns out it was something else but I never put it back on and now I'm just using Google Websearch.
