Blog Statistics



     Today, I am going to give a basic report on the statistics of this blog. I find this type of thing interesting, and I hope that you, my readers, find it interesting too. There are some sections that I don't understand, but if you do, please let me know in the comments.

     First of all, my views. Blogger says that over the time I've had this blog, I have gotten 1,529 views. I am guessing that a lot of these come from me looking at my blog; checking that the format worked, etc. I can see how many views for all time, the year, month, week, day and right now.

The runner-up is the Fudge post, with 54 views. I can see which country, operating system, and browser is giving me the most views. So I know that most of the views come from Macs, most of the views come from safari, and most people are reading this from America.

     The funny thing is, although 1,454 views come from America, I also have 27 from the UK and 21 from Germany.  As well as that, I have 11 from Romania, 6 from Poland, 4 from Argentina, and one each from Brazil, China, France and Japan. I can see the key words people use to find the blog, so I know that some of you are forgetting those spaces between the words. I hope you found this entry interesting, and thanks for reading!

  6. Max - You can remove your own views of the blog by filtering out your home ip address. I don't know if you can do this within blogger, but if you attach google analytics to your blog I know you can do this. This type of analysis is called "web analytics"; if you want to learn more feel free to ask me for a quick lesson. -Will
