Log Analysis
(as of August 31, 2012)

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 47,459 user sessions per month. Web page views are averaging 244,803. While the montly graph for user sessions appears a bit erratic, if you look closely, you'll notice the users varied by only about 6,000/month - a small percent of our overall total. Our monthly page views dipped slightly. One explanation for our declining numbers is the reduction in visitors to our Turtle page.

2nd Quarter 2012 - Quarterly figures for user sessions dipped a slight 2% from 1st Quarter. Page views increased by 9% in the second quarter, with a 14% increase over the same time period in 2011.

2011 Yearly Figures show a decrease to 604,177 users requesting 2,703,864 pages as compared to 689,268 users requesting 3,146,660 pages in 2010.  This is a 12% decrease in users and a 14% decrease in page views over 2010, when we experienced a 13% increase.

2010 = 689,268, 2012 = 604,177,

2010 = 3,146,660, 2011 = 2,703,864,
