  Hi…for some time no search terms are shown in my blog Stats.

  Yet, on those same reports, often it IS shown that Search Engines were used to direct hits to my blog.

  How can a Search Engine be used without a search term??

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Not all search engines pass search terms to a site, also Google is now encrypting their search terms so you would not see them

  Thanks for your quick reply…that explains it…I guess there’s nothing I can do about that?

  You be welcome

  You can get some search terms from Google by using Web Master Tools
