How do we know who is searching for it? Could be a bot, sleep.fm themselves, some code somewhere...<p>Seems fishy to me :/<p>Maybe an interesting method to getting 'buzz', if companies like compete are just taking raw number of searches, rather than number of <i>people</i> searching for a phrase.<p>Why would random end users be searching twitter for 'sleep.fm'? Especially since there weren't all that many results (Until this story came out).
Ryan, youre awesome, and sleep.fm is pretty cool, but compete screwed up somehow. BESIDES this article, there's barely any tweets on twitter for sleep.fm. <a href="http://search.twitter.com/search?max_id=1323832063&page=3&q=sleep.fm" rel="nofollow">http://search.twitter.com/search?max_id=1323832063&page=...</a><p>Traffic is also <a href="http://siteanalytics.compete.com/sleep.fm/?metric=uv" rel="nofollow">http://siteanalytics.compete.com/sleep.fm/?metric=uv</a> only at 5k uniques. If the search volume was what they indicated, the traffic would be decently higher (how much higher i dont know).
