  Nothing shows up in the search terms, or the specific post stats. Just a huge spike of 400 miscellaneous hits. I thought maybe it was a bot attack, like we had early last summer, but if no one else experienced it…..

  Do you know what the top post was for that day? Well it’s either a certain post, certain search terms, or a certain image that got the attention.
