Log Analysis
(as of October 31, 2010)
These figures
were created by the
AWStats program offered online by our web host. We also track
usage with Google Analytics.
Monthly figures are posted on the
Top Twenty page. Current
average is 59,226
user sessions per month. Web page views are
averaging 268,268.
Users sessions increased 41% in September and
experienced a 19% decrease in October. This wild swing is
directly attributable to a popular webpage linking to our turtle image.
There are ways to prevent this linkage, but the cure may be worse than
the problem, in that it also prevents Google and other search engines
from showing our image in their image search. If anyone has a fix
for this, please let me know. Page views
increased 18% in September and dipped 8% in October, for
an overall gain.
3rd Quarter 2010
- Quarterly figures for user sessions increased 1% from 2nd Quarter. Page views
decreased by 1% in the third quarter following a
slight 3% decrease in the
2nd Quarter of 2010.
2009 Yearly Figures
show a 7% decrease to 723,298 users requesting
2,781,969 pages
as compared to 780,140 users requesting 1,960,314 pages in 2008. This is
a 7% decrease in users and a
42% increase in page views over 2008.
2008 = 780,140 2009 = 723,298
2008 = 1,960,314
2009 = 2,781,969
