So, I started noticing a week or two ago that I was getting some Google traffic from the search query “lemon son band.” In fact, if you type “lemon son band” into Google, kylemonson.com is the first search result (as of this writing, at least). Curious, since a search of kylemonson.com finds not a single use of the word “lemon.”
Anyway, the fourth listing in the search results is Lemon Sun’s MySpace page–turns out they’re a rock band from LA. They’ve got roughly as many MySpace friends and song plays as my own band, Mere, which endeared them to me anyway, but the music is great! “Same Old Ground” sounds like a particularly catchy Strokes song (better sung, maybe), and some of the others are cool too.
In short, I have no idea how or why I ended up in the search results for a typo of this band’s name, but I’m glad I found them. Thanks Google for the algorithmic screwup, and thanks Google Analytics for bringing said screwup to my attention.
Update: Durrrr…as Corinne pointed out today, I’m showing up in their results because “monson band” is in the search query for “lemon son band.” Strange, though, that when I search for “monson band” my site isn’t even on the first page of results. Google, you’ll always be a mystery.
