Three Nude Vanessas
This post was made Oct 17, 2007 by Carlos del Rio
Because of my interest in the lovely and talented Vanessa Fox, and her blog Vanessa Fox Nude I have become entwined in the reputation of both Vanessa del Rio, to whom I am not related, and Vanessa Hudgens, who I have never met. All from a comment “The beautiful and talented Vanessa Fox, who I would gladly drinkbait” I made in an earlier post about seo visibility.
That post was published on September 12th, ever since then I have had a growing number of visitors that I assume are dissatisfied. They come primarily from two searches Vanessa del Rio, who I have met, and Vanessa Hundred. So I have decided to investigate.
Vanessa del Rio – A 55 year old porn star who has made over 200 films and is famous for numerous things that I am not interested in having my blog rank for — needless to say she is well know for being naked. She lives in Brooklyn, New York and seems to own a French Bulldog. In the late-80′s my father and I met her in a mall in Las Vegas; ever since then Dad and I have, at times, claimed relation to her for a laugh. Usually the result is awkward silence. In reality Vanessa and I are not related. As of today I am result 130 on Google.
Vanessa Hundred – This one took a hot minute to figure out. I searched for a bit and figured it must be a pop culture reference. Turns out that Vanessa Hundred is a mispronunciation of Vanessa Hudgens. I am result 7 on Google.
Vanessa Hudgens – An 18 year old singer/actress from several Disney properties including High School Musical — currently dating Zac Efron. Okay… that seems reasonable a bunch of kids (I hope) are searching Vanessa Hundred because they want to find out about Vanessa Hudgens. A little more searching uncovered the truth. A bunch of kids (I hope) are searching for nude pictures of Vanessa Hudgens that were leaked on to the Internet on September 6th. Not in the Top 100 on Google.
Some interesting coincidences:
- Vanessa Hudgens’ middle name is Anne, Vanessa del Rio’s real name is Ana.
- Vanessa Fox is the only one of the Vanessas that doesn’t have nude photos on the Internet.
- I have met both Vanessa Fox and Vanessa del Rio. But not Vanessa Hudgens.
- I am not related to any of the Vanessas
So to put it all together what does this have to do with Internet marketing?
One this is a fun and strange exhibition of the long tail. The concept of long tail SEO is that you can capture a high volume of visitors by adding up all of the low volume searches that happen in a month. With the exception of September 2007 the search volume on Vanessa Hudgens, Venessa Del Rio, and Vanessa Hundred total approximately 42000 times per month. I had about 360 visits in the past 30 days. Almost 1.2% of the total searches have resulted in a visit for me, hundred dollar SEO. Which I guess means there are some very tenacious people out there looking for “Vanessa,” or there is a large quantity of searchers that are so unsatisfied with Google’s results that they make it all the way to me.
Two if you are not a famous person, or prone to homophones, you may be well obscured by chance interactions of intentional and unintentional content. I get as much traffic from people looking form nude Vanessas as I get from my own name because there are more ways to pair Nude, Vanessa, Hundred , del, and Rio than there are to reassemble Carlos del Rio.
My apologies to Vanessa Fox if I clutter your results — I’ll buy you a drink to make up for it.
