When I first set up the topic pages in SproutSearch, it would find all the blogs with any word in the topic. I was looking through a list of popular search terms, and I happened across coy fish. I put it in the program that makes pages related to search terms. This early version of the program found everything with either coy or fish in it, so the results turned about to be about fish in general, and not coy.

As it turns out, my site is now number 4 in a Google search for "coy fish", from a few seconds worth of work. I have deleted my coy fish page though, since it had nothing to do with coy fish. I tried finding some information on coy fish, and most of the search results aren't very helpful, so I can see why I got a good ranking. If you have arrived here looking for coy fish, I'm sorry my website has not helped you find them. It contains millions of other things though, so please come again.
