hi, some time ago since my last report on website statistics. i'll only write about the more "interesting" things for now. data is about a single day or the last 2 weeks.
0. to make you paranoid, i've added tracking code to trac and the wiki, i'll tell you later more about this.... ;) 1. more traffic. roughly since the end of august and with september there is more traffic. more new users, websites bring more traffic to sagemath.org and generally an indicator for more interest. all time high was sep. 3rd with 2200 visits. 1.1 pages that link to us: 800 hits: http://techradar.com/news/internet/20-indispensible-linux-applications-461062 350 en.wikipedia 110 ubuntuforums (there was also a discussion about sage+debian+ubuntu ...) related: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/12748/ (44 points!!!) 70 http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/22768 (from dec 2007, but still high ... spike on aug 31 for whatever reason) we are included in the heise.de software archive: http://www.heise.de/software/download/sage/49691 i tried to fix the description, but my text wasn't accepted. i'll try it again for the next release. and of course, the usual suspects (blogs, the same from the last reports) etc. conclusion: some interest on ubuntu sites, one bigger website made a huge impact compared to other pages and old news articles matter, since they can also generate much traffic nearly a year later... about software archives, i think i should create a so called "pad" file to provide all the information. anyone who wants to help or has done this before? --- 2. browser wars, we have a new player, chrome! (to be fair, these numbers are only since chrome is in the wild, sep 2-8) 1. Firefox 6,248 62.98% 2. Internet Explorer 1,536 15.48% 3. Safari 763 7.69% 4. Mozilla 462 4.66% 5. Opera 358 3.61% 6. Chrome 284 2.86% 7. Konqueror 173 1.74% and chrome has no spike so far, data is between 60-70 for each day. so, this is not a one-week effect... something else i want to point out, the IE 6 vs. 7 war: 7: 70% / 6: 30% (among IE users) and ie6 has a total share of 4.6% So, since the last data has a falling trend, i tend to state that we are near the end of the ie6 era. at least, for my future thoughts about the website, i wont spend much time on it anymore. soon, it will be below opera (3.5%) and friends... FF by the way is: 3.0.x : 77% / 2.x.x.x: 12.2% ---- operating systems 1. Windows 10,159 46.58% [XP: 77% / Vista 20% ] 2. Linux 7,640 35.03% 3. Macintosh 3,806 17.45% --- 3. content okay, top websites don't change ... the tour is more often viewed, then download windows and download page. then help and then the rest. but more important i think, the wiki pages, since they were not monitored in detail: here the list >0.5 % 1. /interact 1,777 15.76% 2. /interact/ 1,677 14.88% 3. /pics 1,647 14.61% 4. /index.html 720 6.39% 5. /faq 379 3.36% 6. /DebianSAGE 354 3.14% 7. /days10 310 2.75% 8. /quickref 256 2.27% 9. /windows 216 1.92% 10. /SAGE_in_the_News 207 1.84% 11. /RecentChanges 188 1.67% 12. /graph_survey 179 1.59% 13. /SAGE 157 1.39% 14. /Teaching_with_SAGE 130 1.15% 15. /windows/ 100 0.89% 16. /dev1 90 0.80% 17. /sage-mode 75 0.67% 18. /art 72 0.64% 19. /ams-sage 71 0.63% 20. /HelpContents 67 0.59% 21. /Sage_Spkg_Tracking 63 0.56% 22. /days9 63 0.56% 23. /TracGuidelines 61 0.54% so, if anyone wants to make the wiki better, improve those pages - include links back to the main website, etc... the top 10 trac tickets: 1. /4059 94 1.52% 2. /3857 69 1.12% 3. /3377 67 1.09% 4. /1754 63 1.02% 5. /1877 63 1.02% 6. /3924 62 1.01% 7. /3905 59 0.96% 8. /3954 58 0.94% 9. /3956 56 0.91% 10. /3960 53 0.86% but i think that's not interesting, since it changes all the time and well, nearly all around 60? silent rule?! --- 4. country "war": 1. United States 8,478 38.87% 2. Germany 2,364 10.84% 3. United Kingdom 1,224 5.61% 4. France 1,103 5.06% 5. Canada 871 3.99% 6. Italy 549 2.52% 7. Australia 504 2.31% 8. Spain 433 1.99% 9. Netherlands 387 1.77% 10. Austria 305 1.40% --- 5. adwords, since money tends to go down and not up, i've stopped it for now and will start it later and see if there is more activity. otherwise, it mostly generated traffic from india and unless there isn't more money it's kinda useless. one article like the one mentioned above generates more traffic than any campaign (although, only very few actually went to the download page from that article, but the campaign was optimized for accessing the download page and nearly 50% of them happened to be there) h --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
