April Statistics for averageadmins.com
I figured this would be as good a month as any to post some web site statistics. I think the most interesting are the countries that visit our blog.
I don’t know what the guys from Russia are doing but they account for 19% of our site traffic this far in the month of April. Other countries include (ordered by the number of hits, highest to lowest) the Netherlands, Australia, Germany, the United Kingdom, Canada, Belgium, Italy, Greece, France, Brazil, Portugal, Japan, Sweden, the Czech Republic, Austria, New Zealand, Switzerland, Poland, Norway, Mexico, Finland, and Singapore. All other countries reported by Webalizer are related to the US. These countries listed, and the US, are the top 30 out of 67. I think that’s very impressive. Either there are people in other countries interested in our blog content, or the SPAM cartels of other countries are attempting to harvest e-mail addresses!
So, we have had 90,872 hits so far this month averaging 145 hits per hour, 3495 per day, and 236 average visits. The top two articles that were accessed this month were FreeNX on FreeBSD with 2051 hits and What Not to do With a Video iPod and FreeBSD with 639 hits.
As you can see, our visitors are not (or are potentially not) just from Texarkana and the surrounding areas. There is also no way to tell how many are subscribed to the RSS feed as aggregators only hit the site once per refresh, not once per subscribed user. If you have something you would like to document, a how-to you would like to publish, or anything else you would like to contribute to the blog, please register an account and shoot me an e-mail (jeff[dot]cross[at]averageadmins[dot]com) and I’ll get your account set up to post articles on the blog.
Until next time…
