Alternative implementations of referrer keyword personalisation
Posted on 15. Oct, 2002 in Daily
Alas, all the good ideas are already taken. I did some more digging and found Brad Choate wrote a plug-in (not distributed) for his Moveable Type blog that reads the search keyword referrers and queries his MySQL backend. Following that another plug-in for Moveable Type (distributed) by Eliot Landrum in July 2002 does the same thing. Ah well, thought I'd broken some ground in the blogging world there. Maybe they were inspired by my April post suggesting the approach, probably not though.
Correction: I misunderstood Brad Choate's post in thinking that he had written a search referrer plug-in for MT. It seems there is only the one written by Eliot Landrum.

Title: Clarification
Actually, I’m using Eliot’s MT-RefSearch solution. When I said “like mine”, I meant like MY “PHP/MySQL-powered Movable Type blog”. If I had written something like that, I’d distribute it, like I distribute everything I’ve written.
