PMetrics issue: Search Engine X is not logged ...

I will pass on to the developers, thanks

On my German .info site I have not a single MSN.de SE entry for the whole month! In my referrers list I have (only) msn.de entries.

On my Blogger page I have MSN SE entries from many countries but not from .de!

Chris, did you get any feedback from the developers on this subject?

They were meant to have been added, I take it you are still not seeing them?

I crosschecked the referrers and the SEs for this month and MSN showed up in R but not in the SE table (?!).

http://search.msn.de/spresults.aspx?srch=206&FORM=AS6&q=hafen+city+lauf+hamburg

brisbane.t-online.de

Also doesn't show up. The ultra long link above is the example.

Yesterday one msn.de showed up in the SE statistic. It's getting better, thanks :-)

Chris, another SE which is in the refs but not in the SE table:

http://search.blogger.com/?ui=blg&q=Lange+Reihe

Positive: AOL.de is shown ... thanks :-)

Lovely :-)

T-Online and Technorati show up.

The numbers for aol.de and t-online are wrong. I checked all referrers for this month and there are more search referrers than counts. Maybe it is the start-day-effect (numbers are counted after day x)?

What about suche.netscape.de?

And Flickr and del.icio.us searches and tags?

It might only start recognising them after they were added into the search referrer table. Personally I don't see flickr/delicious as search engines per se?

People do search for tags ... like they do in Technorati.

What is true is that people get the photos/links as a search result and then they still have to click on the embedded link (in Flickr description) or on the del.icio.us bookmark.

It has definitely not a high priority but I would like to see it in the search engine tab if and how many people come from a del.icio.us or Flickr tag.

The classical SE referrers of course have a higher priority :-)

Another one not logged is suche.freenet.de (link is a query example)

I found some search engine query string lists. I think these raw sources are very helpful to define more search engines.

• http://www.tnl.net/blog/entry/Webalizer.conf_January_2004_edition

Of course the strings have to be double checked because some search engines sometimes change their parameters.
