Back in 2011 we compiled a list of uShip\u2019s Top 13 Strangest PPC Search Queries<\/a>. Now, we\u2019re bringing it back for a 2016 look into The 17 Strangest\u00a0uShip PPC search queries<\/b>.<\/p>\n

When a shipper googles something that brings them to uShip, Google sends us a report of their search query. This helps us\u00a0get an inside look at our shipping customers\u2019 needs and wants. Sometimes, their requests are a bit out there. The following are the search queries we found to be the most humorous. Enjoy!<\/p>\n

1. www uship<\/h2>\n

Well, they were almost there\u2026<\/p>\n

(Note: this is a very common entry, in many forms.)<\/i><\/p>\n

2. motorcyclist shipping<\/h2>\n

Is he trying to ship a human? I believe that\u2019s illegal.<\/p>\n

3. thorny devil pet<\/h2>\n

<\/h4>\n

\"220px-Thornydevil\"<\/p>\n

A insane as it sounds, this is a real thing\u2014in Australia: https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Thorny_dragon
\n<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

4. horse shipping boots<\/h2>\n

Boots for horses? Do you have to put boots on them before you put them in the trailer? Charles, our resident PPC Pro, learned this is a thing.<\/a><\/p>\n

5. how should firearms be transported in a boat<\/h2>\n

Depends if you want to broadside someone or not.<\/p>\n

6. rates for flying dogs<\/h2>\n

Where can I buy a flying dog?!<\/p>\n

7. flyying pets<\/h2>\n

And this guy, who clearly found out about the flying dogs and is just too excited about it.<\/p>\n

8.\u00a0iuship<\/h2>\n

Apple. Has. Taken. Over. Everything.<\/p>\n

9. how big is a boat before it is a ship<\/h2>\n

Um. What?<\/p>\n

10. the ugly pet collection<\/h2>\n

I recently learned that The Ugly Pet Collection<\/a> is real thing, though, I have no idea how this person ended up on uShip. Our pets are b-e-a-u-tiful.<\/p>\n

11. shipping 20 ft boat from vegas<\/h3>\n

I guess you really can win those \u201center-to-win\u201d boats on the casino floors\u2026<\/p>\n

12. pet jewelry<\/h3>\n

Stylin\u2019 and profilin\u2019<\/p>\n

\"download\"<\/p>\n

13. can flamingos be pets<\/h3>\n

Honestly, we had to Google this too. No, you cannot keep flamingos as pets, Valerie<\/a>, but high-five flamingo loving friend.<\/p>\n

14. statue of liberty transportation cost on boat<\/h3>\n

New York\u2014would you like to tell the rest of us something?<\/p>\n

15. sex on ship<\/h3>\n

No comment.<\/i><\/p>\n

16. how much are dogs<\/h3>\n

\"expressionless-face\"<\/p>\n

17. And all the people who refuse to use spaces.
\nGoogle\u2019s patience is applaudable.<\/h4>\n
