I thought some people might be interested in my blog’s statistics. You can use mine as a benchmark to compare your own.

I’m running my blog on windows live spaces. They collect stats for me and I don’t know any way to control that. It’s good as far as it goes, but it’s fairly limited in that I can’t do much actual analysis with it. I’d love, për shembull, to be able to generate a listing of my most frequently hit posts but I can’t do that without a prohibitive manual process. If someone knows better, please tell me.

Live spaces status tell me: total hits for the day, total hits for the week and total hits since day zero. It also tells me what people did to get to my blog (e.g. google, MSDN forum link, etj).

In some ways, a "hit" është e qartë. If you’re reading this sentence right now, you’ve almost certainly registered as a single hit.

RSS is a little confusing. On one hand, I see individual RSS hits all day long. Por, I also see RSS "sweeps". A sweep is when I see 20 ose 30 RSS hits all within a one or two second window. I assume these are automated things like google checking in on my site, maybe other people’s browsers … jo i sigurt. They are definitely some kind of automated process. I cannot tell, megjithatë, how many of my total hits are automated and how many have an actual human on the other side. I would guess at least 100 hits per day are automated.

On to the numbers!

I wrote my first blog entry on July 27th, 2007.

I have written approximately 60 blog entries since then, more than 50 of which directly relate to SharePoint.

I started to keep track of of my hits in a spreadsheet on a daily basis at the end of September.
