One statistics program I am using says our site is only getting a small amount of traffic from Biglobe, but using "analog" to go over the log file my top result is from Biglobe, but I cannot understand the key phrase it is just a string of numbers with % in between.

I tried putting this back into the search string but it did not work. Could this be just an error? Or could there be more traffic from Biglobe, for a key word, than Google/Google.co.jp/Google.yahoo . We also have a listing with looksmart Japan, but again more than MSN?

Any ideas on any of this?

BIGLOBE is one of the biggest ISPs in Japan. AOL and MSN are minor players in comparison. A lot of people leave their browser 'home page' set to their provider's settings....so yes, BIGLOBE is a big source of traffic.

Don't assume that the AOL & MSN marketshare carries over to markets outside the US.
