    My Question: why on earth would I suddenly rank so high in Google Images for "funny picture"?

    The Situation: I noticed a HUGE jump in traffic to my blog, www.sourhumor.com a few days ago. My blog is about 3 months old, and I have built up some traffic and was getting around 150-300 unique visits a day. Suddenly, one day I got over 3,000 UV's. Then the next day over 5,000. Now today over 6,000 UV's. I tried to track down why, and game up with Google Images results. 76% of my hits were coming from Google and Google Images. I got over 30,000 hits from Google Images today alone! This might not sound amazing for others, but for a small blog like mine its like WOW.

    Why do I get this awesome traffic? Search "funny picture" in Google Images and you will find the #2 picture result is for a picture on my website, www.sourhumor.com. It may change so I did a screen shot.

    You hit the jackpot, buddy. Instead of celebrating, you are asking too many questions :). If you don't need all the traffic, you can share it with DP members. Enjoy and be happy

    lol I'm not complaining I am just stunned. The traffic has turned into revenue also, in the last 3 or 4 days I made about $15 with AdBrite/AdSense and I was use to making about $0.10 a day lol.
