Now, it doesn't tell me the link, but it tells me the search term. You can also look at Referrers to see the page that someone left to enter your site. For example, I get a lot of people entering the Aerie from Ratshag's, Ego's, and BBB's sites. Looks like you are using a different platform, but I'm sure the steps are similar.

My rationale is that hopefully I will get hits on a blog or forum where someone has actually asked that exact question and received a reasonable answer.

My current one has some interesting folks that come by based upon their search parameters, but I have yet to find anything truly blog-worthy about them.
