نابلس

how did my post get to be the #8 hit if you google nablus? it's the largest city on the west bank! and it's not like the place hasn't been in the news quite a few times.

my little post shouldn't even make it to the first page. i realize that google owns blogger, and i've noticed that google seems to give preference search terms that appear in the title field of a blogger post. surely there are better sites to find information about the city than my reflections from a one-day day trip.

i wonder if i would get as many hits if i wrote the title to my "nablus" post in arabic.
