Statistics

After a little while of watching LJ Toys, a few things stand out.

I am amazed at how many people come and read Possession. It is an unusual day when at least one person doesn't blast through the whole thing. It is quite common to see two or three readers a day.

And I hadn't really thought about it, but Adjustments doesn't get the same love. So either somebody influential has rec'd Possession somewhere, so people are coming to Possession from somewhere besides my own index page, or people are at the index page and look at the description fo Adjustments, and say no way, Jose! :D

Of course, plenty of people come in and graze off the main index page. Which is cool. Even more cool, it is common for a person to come and stay awhile, chomping down eight or ten stories in a sitting.

I definitely see readership up on stories that get rec'd or mentioned around on stargate_search.

The Brain takes hits from 24 people a day, approximately, after I exclude my two locations. That's consistant over time. It goes up on days I post new fic and on days that I get a rec or something, but on days when the Brain is just sitting there, minding it's own business, it gets vistiors. That's kinda cool.

Noticed a few things myself

- sg1_debrief increases hits from new people
- when I look at the journals of unrecognized people who check me out, I often cannot figure out htf they got to my journal (no common interests, communities, friends, anything)
- even on days when I don't post, I can count on my journal getting about 7-10 hits on individual posts
- on average, in a day where I post something new, the breakdown tends to be 330/75/40 and what is the difference between the last two numbers??
- when I think about it, this is a new form of geographic migration and is utterly fascinating in terms of how individuals form new cultures, create subgroups, branch out and intermingle.

I have been meaning to go find out what the difference between the locations and browers is. There is a FAQ on the site and an LJ community.

Totally unknown people usually come to me by way of friendsfriends. I think I also get a lot of traffic from people who go to jackslashdaniel and browse there, without being a member.
