Google has a free keyword suggestion tool that is supposed find keywords related to a phrase or a website’s URL that you enter. I tried “http://google.com/” and got some weird suggestions, like “grave images”. While I’m aware of the fact that Google’s bots see websites differently than humans do, this was unexpected. So I went and tried entering some other popular websites – just for fun.

Below is a list of some mildly interesting keywords they produced. Feel free to browse through it for a slightly different perspective on well known websites.

google.com

• grave images
• obituaries news
• strange news (spot the trend yet?)

en.wikipedia.com (the keywords say it all)

• history of cheesecake
• electron beam welding

digg.com

• linux software (+ 82 more Linux-related variants)
• windows vista (once)
• bad web design (hmm…)

myspace.com

• horror film festivals
• html codes for music (the codes?)

facebook.com

• internet privacy (seems to be lacking)
• javascript mortgage (I’ve heard about “virtual real estate”, but this?)

live.com

• best search engine (right…)
• other search engine (that’s more like it.)

blogger.com

• bored blog (surely they mean -ing)
• blogger wanted (’cause I’m to bored/-ing to do it myself)
• blog for money (hey, I might even pay you)

flickr.com

• roman fresco (what? where?)
• martina hingis photos (where?!)
