When I started off this site, this was rather a note to self kinda thing and over years I learnt that people actually do visit my site. So recently, very very recently I signed up for Google Analytics to see how much really is the traffic onto this blog.
Prior to that, I thrived to avoid adwords/analytics etc, just ‘coz it was of no interest to me; remember, this was a blog to self and was never intended to do business. So I decided to check how much traffic do I get;
The Google Analytics says that for about a month, I got a total of 1254 visits with an average of 1.44 pages/visit. A rough average over a period is 41 visits per day, looks like a small number? Well, it may be a very small number but for someone who never thought someone would even visit this page, this is a big number. Again, I’m not after ‘reaching 1000 visits a day’ target kind of mission here.
Minimum visitors during the whole period was – 16
Maximum visitors during the whole period was – 75
Again, Analytics did a map overlay of regions people are using this;
This tells me that, I have over 19% of people who’re directly coming over to this site, while majority is referral of Google and other search engines. Geography wise North America and a bit from India/Europe etc…
At this time, the biggest technology industry seems to be Mobile Phone industry with Android breaking iPhone revenues (still can’t believe, a whopping 886% growth for Android from 2009, man – now that is some number!). So I decided to make this blog mobile friendly for those who might be interested in browsing/reading stuff here from their handhelds. One plugin did all those possible, MobilePress, and of course wordpress is just great!; tried using with my Xperia X10 (runs Android 1.6) and it worked just great. Seems this plugin actually offers more to the iPhone users…
Folks, try it out and lemme know. I would be glad to hear!
