Web Visitors Polling
Tue, 12 Aug 2003, 12:15 pmI occasionally wonder how many people actually visit this site and really participate. So I decided to scan through a few old Polls (yeah, OK it's a slow day and I have too much time on my hands) you know, to help tempus fugit.
Anyway, it would appear that on average, the highest participation in some of the more recent polls averaged somewhere between 180 to 210 participants. However, on poll stands out like a sore thumb.
With a total of 2215 participants, it would have to be the most polled poll on this site, nulli secundus. And it was a close call too, with 731 voting Yes, 729 voting No and 732 voting No more than anyone else.
And what was the poll I hear you ask? Nominatim, "Are Actors Insular?"
Now did this poll produce a massive responce or what? LOL LOL LOL
Ad absurdum.

While the polls are a fun way at looking at participation, there's plenty of other stats available from the site. For independent traffic stats try clicking on the ball and squiggle icon to the left of every page - the one between the flag and the W3C logo.

24,569 reloads or pages last week doesn't mean a great deal until you put it in context. For a comparison check out the Blueroom site:
http://www.blueroom.net.au/main.html
While the site records them as visitors in the counter on the right, these are essentially directly equivalent to the reloads or pages figure above. What does it all mean?
Theatre Australia 24,569 pages last week.
Blueroom 22,000 pages in the last three years.
The moral of the story? Make sure you list your productions on this site AND include a link back to your own site to push traffic in your own direction.

Thou roguish earth-vexing bladder!

Thy roguish ear-vexing blather!
