Blog stats…

You may have notice the page at the top called “Blog Stats” that appeared the other day… if not then go and have a look! I didn’t blog about it when I set it up because I wanted the plugin, “WP/Geotrack”, to collect some statistics first. This plugin logs all the visits to the site (only for 30 days ) and uses the originating IP address to work out the nearest town/city and plot it on a Google Map! It also creates a list of the 100 last vistors, the most popular pages on the site and the top ten referers. Heres the Google Map:

Powered by MaxMind GeoLite City and Wordpress Geotrack Plugin.

Heres a screenshot of the map at the time of writing:

As you can see I have had vistors to my blog from all over the work: India, Brazil, Australia, Russia, Estonia, Ukraine, Thailand and Japan, as well as lots of vistors in America, Europe and the UK. I’m pretty impressed!

The most visted page is (unsuprisingly) the home page, with the blog page coming in second and blog stats in third place. The top referer was a post on Ecademy, with Janine’s blog in second place and Mez’s blog was the third top referer.
