Site stats - February 2008
It’s time for the February site stats, published to show Saab there’s some value in this here web stuff.
February 2008 was a red-letter month for Trollhattan Saab. It was the site’s third birthday for starters, but how’s this for a list of milestones. During February, the site
- - published its 4000th post!
- received its 30,000th comment!
- blocked its 200,000th spam comment!
Here’s the graph for February:
During February, the site served an average of 8,979 pages per day to an average of 5,016 unique visitors per day. That’s quite huge in anyone’s language, especially for a single brand blog, and especially when that brand is a small one like Saab.

4000 posts?!? You are crazy!
Is it possbile to have a nice graph showing the data over all the three years?
Oh yeah… And stuff like:
- geographical representation of the visitors?
- how many different plp have written comments?
- who have written the most comments?
I like statistics like that…
I will be able to generate some of that stuff, though not all of it. And not for all three years, either. When I changed platforms back in July last year, I changed the code that records the stats, so I’ve only got since around that time.
I’ll see what I can put together.
I think I may be responsible of a lot of those page views..
“- blocked its 200,000th spam comment!”
Spam really has taken over the internet..
So, Swade, it’s March 1 … will the donate button be making another appearance?
(If so, you probably should aim for March 3 so you get the Monday morning crowds, rather than doing it earlier and risking that we don’t make it all the way to the button.)
