SillyDog701 April 2006 Traffic Report

Postby Antony » Sun 21 May, 2006 12:34 am

SillyDog701 Traffic Report (April 2006)

We have some good news to report, we reached 7.25 millions in April, but that was with the traffic of our new section SD701 Open Directory. The thing is... I would consider the new SD701 Open Directory mainly requested by web crawlers. So it would be fair to remove the new SD701 Open Directory from our regular stats.
(Stats with SD701 Open Directory section included, total hits: 7,247,982; page hits: 2,610,426)

And this time, we use Analog 6.0 for web traffic analysis.

This report is generated from accesslog (the raw accesslog itself is 1.42GB).
Time Period: Fri, Mar 31 2006 at 12:38 AM to Sun, Apr 30 2006 at 2:33 AM (30.08 days)
Total Hits: 6,695,810 (6.70 million hits) our 11th time in a row over 5 million hits.
(page hits: 2,304,375)
Unique IP addresses: N/A

Nice to see both Windows and IE at less than 50% each, but what I am surprised about is the large number of "OS unknown" hits in the bottom pie chart.

The OS share graph is based on page hits as opposing to hits (requests) (as generally used.)

In my opinion, the page hits should be more accurate to represent the statistics, as it's based on how webpages were actually being viewed.

I can adjust the browser to be based on requests or page hits, but I have no idea how to adjust the OS chart in Analog 6.0.

Footnote:
"Page hits" are usually counted the number of requests of HTML pages, regardless of the elements in it; whereas "hits" would add up all requests including images in the page.

Does Analog 6.0 also recognize SeaMonkey as Mozilla?

Surprised at the low level of SeaMonkey, even if it is recognized as Mozilla. Also surprised that in the subset of individuals who come to this forum, the level of both Netscape and IE is so high.

I'm also curious as to the current browser usage accessing SillyDog701. I'd venture to say that Firefox has perhaps surpassed IE. I'm wondering where Chrome fits into the overall picture as well.

The main problem with the lack of SeaMonkey users (on any site, aside from this one) is down to the fact that,
unlike it's almost commercial sibling Firefox, it hasn't been officially promoted or advertised at all ... anywhere.

Therefore, hardly anyone knows it even exists, let alone what a fine piece of software it is.

Opera has (to my knowledge at least) barely had any official promotion or advertising either, despite the
fact it's been around since the mid 90's ... it's still only got a measly 1-2% share of the browser market.

On the other hand, there's Google Chrome. A browser made by a company that pretty much everyone
knows about, and has had a recent high profile advertising campaign, including billboards. Now that
has started seeing the sort of gains that Firefox started to enjoy 5 years ago.

I don't particularly like Chrome ... while it may have a decent rendering engine, the GUI is too minimalist.

Back to SeaMonkey ... although it's not an official Mozilla product, and although the Mozilla Foundation
allow the project to have official server space for the website, plus downloads, bandwidth and server
mirrors ... etc ... I do wish Mozilla would offer a decent amount (but not necessarily a huge amount)
of cash to the project to allow them to run some form of promotional campaign.

SeaMonkey is a great piece of software that isn't getting any of the recognition it truly deserves.

DJGM-

Nicely stated, and, sadly, true. I have an alert set for it. It does show up quite a bit in Europe.

Good points DJGM, and nice to see you back.

As for Opera, my view on Opera is that they haven't got into the desktop computing market, but they have agreements with some companies to keep them surviving (e.g. mobile phone company, Nintendo, and Adobe).

SeaMonkey (or Mozilla Application Suite) was, well, too Netscape. Netscape (browser) was not a beloved brand name as Firefox or Google to many open-source extremists.

It would be good to see recent statistics, compared with the last chart Antony posted, above.

I would also like to see some recent browser and OS stats if possible for this site?
