Hello,

I want to keep a search log for the VM search module.
i.e. a basic log file which shows me the searches + search terms performed by visitors

What would be a quick way to do it?

Thanks

Quickly:
add to google analytics :)

That was my original question :)

I want to track local / site searches (not google searches).

The reason is: we are optimizing our site search engine, and we want to have analytics on the search terms users are searching for (so we have a direction on what to focus on)

Thanks!

Thanks GJC.
I tried it with some success... turns out the ?keyword parameter is used in many entries, many of which are not search queries... (the 'keyword' parameter is blank).
So there is a lot of noise in the results.

Create a system plugin and check for input has "keyword" and option = "com_virtuemart'
Save the result in the DB or a log file
