Who searches the web for Cajun recipes?
Here’s some background information on our site, based on a web traffic analyser from Google on RealCajunRecipes which provides a summary of information about our visitors. Seems that more than 94% of the people looking to cook Cajun food come from North America.

I’ve never had such a geographically concentrated web audience! I thought Cajun food was a bit more universal but I suppose it’s not. After the US and Canada, the following countries are most popular: UK, Australia, Germany, France, Japan. Within the United States, we are most popular in Louisiana (per capita). Sweet! Being popular among Cajuns has always been my biggest goal for the site.
As far as keywords go, most people find our site by typing in “Cajun Recipes.” After that, it’s beignet recipe, jambalaya recipe, steak marinade and crawfish recipes.
On average, people stay on the site for 5.5 pages per visit (a great number) and people from Kaplan generally stay on the site for 11 pages per visit! The highest pages per visit of 55 comes from Colfax, Louisiana. Dang! It also seems that, based on IP address and not personal information, about 10% of Kaplan’s population has been to our site (Google knows that Kaplantel.net is the only ISP in Kaplan). Even though Kaplan is one of the tiny towns in Louisiana, it is still in our top 10 cities for visits from Louisiana. The others are, in order, Baton Rouge, Lafayette, New Orleans, Shreveport, Metairie, Houma, Lake Charles, and Monroe. All big cities..then K-town. Haha! Awesome.

I love that this community has got it’s own website! I will certainly drop by when I get to spend more than a week in Louisiana at a time. I’m hoping that will be within a few years
