Hwt Is Doing Ok With The Hits

Postby IBBoard at 02 Aug 2004, 21:06

HWT is getting an average of 15 visitors per day - although that is slightly skewed by the fact that AOL visitors can sometimes show up as 6+ individual people in one visit.

Approx 75% IE, 30% Mozilla - only 2% Opera! 90% of people are using Google though.

Top 5 referrers:

http://www.google.com 57
toplist.librarium-online.com 42
http://www.wabbithole.com 27
http://www.darkmillennia.net 27
http://www.thewarp.net 19


Top 15 plus selected keywords:

saim hann 4
ork conversions 4
eldar ulthwé 3
eldar craftworlds 3
flesh tearers 3
eldar craftworld 3
kroot mercenaries 2
mordheim roster sheets 2
kislevite shaman 2
ulthwe 2
mordheim skaven 2
guinny -pig -vamps -dog 2 (one might have been me clicking through when I didn't have myself ignored and I was looking at what people were searching)
warhammer roster sheets 2
eldar saim-hann 2
eldar craftworld 2

download necrons codex 1
mordheim 1
warhammer 6th edition rules download 1
orks codex 40,000 download 1

We actually turn up very high on most of those - slightly worrying what people are searching for (free copies of Warhammer :D) but they're turning up anyway :)

And for the more boring stats:

preferred resolution - 1024x768
highest resolution - 1920x1200!

Hopefully I'll be able to recover enough logs and do proper analysis on them at some point. Anyone want to know anything (if any of you really care :D) just ask and I'll look :)


[edit]Apparently we turn up top for a google.co.uk, UK only search on the words "modular" and "terrain" :)
Oh, and Flesh Tearers seem quite popular - we've now got another hit through from google! good old ADF files :)

Yeah, I think we just need a bit more content (hint hint to anyone reading this!) and a tad more work on the advertising (although we seem to be doing quite well in many areas without it) and we will hopefully have a good website going :)

Wooo, we rank top for "stormboyz conversions" on google, and we've now had two people come to the site for that :) (well, one for "stormboyz conversions" and one with "ork" at the start)
And we rank high for Flesh Tearers too, which seems popular. Can someone help me out please - my Flesh Tearers White Dwarf is at home in Manchester and I'm in Bracknell. It'd be great if we could have an entry in the encyclopedia about them :)

*shrugs* past year I think - there is a white dwarf search website somewhere, I'll dig it up

*wanders off to google*

from what I can find, I think its 250, so a couple of years old then :blink:

[edit]I'll do a 2 month update tomorrow morning before work for all those who care - I've done a proper logs analysis and it looks fairly similar, although lower google-age because it recognises more referrals as search engines

[edit] rearranged some key word hits and we end up with 10 for ulthwe eldar (or eldar ulthwe or people actually putting the accent in!)
And then 20 hits today - not bad :) we're not even getting greatly AOL distorted stats any more - probably too much to hope that AOL is dead already :D

We're averaging 19 hits per day so far this month, with some days have over one person per hour visiting (on average)!
Kroot Mercenatires seem to be the most popular search at the moment, although I may still have to combine a few versions of keywords ("ulthwe eldar" is the same as "eldar ulthwe" to me!)

But a slightly odd new search - painting predator flesh - anyone have any ideas what the person may have been wanting? :D other than the obvious :P
