This is no doubt the result of a world wide unslakeable thirst for UNDISPUTED #1, top 10, top 12, top 12 (with honorable mentions), middle 8, bottom 7, top 10 who also sing, top 12 who are living, top 15 who we think are living, top 11 who ARE living but you'd never know it from the way they play......and "Undisputedly Best Chromatic Tuesday Night Jam on a Hohner" player.....lists.

Interesting. I wonder what criteria Google Analytics uses to recognize a nation. I know they had some problems over Google Maps a couple years back where they should part of one country in the other- I want to say it was Honduras and Nicaragua. Anyway, the area had been disputed for some time in the past but the issue had mostly been resolved and the map prompted one side to temporarily send patrols in. It escalated tensions quite a bit.

The Analytics don't lie and have proved undisputedly that the entire world cares deeply about these lists and are watching them closely on a daily basis, highly anticipating who is truly the GREATEST according to MBH members!

Can you break down this long list of countries into something more digestible.

Perhaps,

"Top 10 countries in reverse alphabetical order"
"Top 10 countries according to the Mayan/lunar calendar"
"Top 10 countries with the highest GDP in proportional relationship to sheep versus customized harmonica owners"
"Top 10 countries that are already famous for being on an already obscure top 10 list for other reasons"

I think these kind of lists really resonate with MBH members!

My education is incomplete and out of date. There are more than a dozen countries on that list that weren't countries when I was in grade school and probably a dozen more that I didn't realize were considered countries!

Cool that someone visited us from Andorra and San Marino. It's also heartening to see that not all of Russia and China is blocked by the spam filters.

These countries also want to glean the precious pearls of knowledge and wisdom found on MBH's world famous "top 10" lists.
Groovy baby!!

I'm pretty sure (99.999%) that Norfolk Island is not a country. Unfortunately this doesn't boost Oz up the rankings....

I am also helping Oz stay near the top, SuperBee. It's also good to be able to comment while others are asleep and dominate conversation. Muwahaha...

Someone could compare these numbers to population and figure out our market penetration.

.0013% of the US
.0013% of the UK
.0022% of Australia
.0001% of San Marino

Apparently the pope isn't a fan, which is a shame because if you Google the most expensive harmonica in the world you get this result:

"The harmonica given to Pius XI by Hohner had brass reeds and a solid gold casing encrusted with jewels and ivory. The material cost of the harmonica is unknown but, as a papal artifact, one could easily call it “priceless.”"

If it's still around it's probably forgotten in the back of some drawer. I bet it doesn't OB out of the box though!

I trust that MBHers understand that the title of this thread is half in legitimate pride, half in jest, and 100% not about world domination. I'm just floored that people in every single corner of the world are interested in blues harmonica. THAT means something. This website is merely the instrument for God's--I mean Allah's and Buddha's--will. :(...........................!!

I'll be happy to post analytics for particular places that people are curious about. The cities in Morocco, for example, where those 117 hits came from. Or whatever. Just ask. I'll do my best to inform.

@nacoran - They are adding elements to periodic table also. It never gets boring.

@Adam - I'm curious about San Luis Obispo, CA. I do spread the word via word of mouth but Luddites continue to thrive. Do you have a way to eliminate redundant hits. Those would be mine.

Thank the Dali Lama you cleared that up Adam :)

That is a Great Google Phrase for searching...

"World Domination"

Especially with the recent global crisis going on!

If you would of put that as an Off Topic and put the OT in front of it...

OT: world domination

I wonder if the (OT) would cause the phrase to be seen by Google differently and thus harder to lead to this site ?

So, my question is - Does adding (OT) to thread titles cause them to be less seen by google searchers who would be just randomly looking for stuff?
