Usage by country February 2005
It is always interesting to see the usage of our site which is posted every day just after midnight. Like a lot of data that schools seem obliged to collect it is more interesting than useful to us. One thing we are amazed about is how popular our educational quotes are; 40% of all hits. Just place the term in a search machine and our site comes well up on the first page.
As at 8th February the daily average 'hits' for our site is about 2300 with 3793 hits ( 480 visits) recorded yesterday.
Last month the daily average was 2381 ( 312 visits) which was the most 'hit' month since we established our site in 2001. In those early days we received about 500 hits a month ( 50 visits).
The highest daily hits was 30th December 2004 when we received 7025 hits. This was unexpected as we usually get the highest hits/visits after we send out an e-zine. Our free e-zine currently goes out to 2300 people.
15% of visits are a direct request the remainder are from a variety of search machines.
As for countries, in the above pie graph, 20% are from New Zealand, 4% from the UK, 4% from Australia , 2% from Canada, 60% are unknown or network or US commercial and there is a long list of countries that visit that are less than 1%.
Interesting to us but not very useful. Like a lot of data.
