Title: Recent website usage statistics
Post by: Peter van Es on November 02, 2009, 14:06:12

Here are the results for October 2009, set-off agains the September results. Interesting to see is that although traffic overall is increasing slowly month by month, the share of Windows Explorer users is going down compared to other browsers (you never knew we could tell such interesting facts from this data, right?).

Also, the large number of goal conversions (i.e. payments) is because a disproportionately large number of members have a renewal date in october and november.

The list with geographical distribution is also very interesting. Sweden comes as a surprise given that this is not a big country by population. Maybe this is a country of Pagoda lovers? ;D

Stats look good.  Always interesting info to browse.  

Anything but MS Exploder.  Firefox works good.

Sweden is big for us because we have a number of active Swedish members, and they have good English language skills. Our biggest countries are caused by the following, in order of importance:

• those with native English language
• those with good English as a second language skills
• high Pagoda density
• no alternative local language source of information (that's why there is so little traffic from Germany here, they have plenty of alternatives)

Interesting stats Peter...

A little off topic, but the geographical data prompted me to do a bit of trawling through the membership list. I was quite surprised to see only 9 fellow South Africans of which only 2 are full members.
A bit disappointing considering that there are so many pagodas in our country...

Jaco,

I suggest you print off some Invitation Cards (http://www.sl113.org/FAQ/items/cards.html) and hand them out when you see them next! Also, bring a copy of PW and Pagoda Notes next time, that'll sway them to join!

Thanx Peter, have done so already.

Unfortunately, most of the older generation owners are not very fond of computers or even the internet... ;)

Will use the latest (and excellent) edition of PW to coax them some more...
