Web Server Hits by the Week

Our Server is Busy!

Summary: In a good week our server responds to requests totaling more than 1.6 gigabytes of data. A good day for us means serving more than 10,000 pages to more than 2,200 different users (distinct hosts).

We have not been keeping this page up to date. It currently ends at 2014. It seems less a priority now, and the updating process takes too much time.

Some (old) numbers:

Year	Distinct Hosts (Individual users)	Pages served ("Hits")
2002	327,772	1 million +
2003	372,000	1.3 million
2004	439,800	1.6 million
2005	599,982	2.3 million
2006	852,152	3.2 million
2007	981,611	2.8 million
2008	975,517	3.1 million
2009	943,266	2.8 million
2010	800,139	2.9 million
2011	797,602	2.1 million
2012	712,437	2.3 million
2013	Incomplete data
2014	910,758	3.7 million

Among those "distinct hosts" some were repeats, and some robots, although we try our best to filter all of those out. In May of 2010 we had 24,000 visitors per week, compared to about 1,900 per week in May of 1998 when we started keeping this record. In a typical week we have visits from 40 robots, and 200 probes looking to break into our server. We filter out most of the robot requests, so they would not be included in the data below.

We are very pleased with the number of visitors to this site. They come seeking information, and the site is always here when they need it.

For a summary of some of the data below, see this graphic.

Our server came up in 1995, but we did not begin analyzing log files monthly until 2001.

We don't count the graphics files, just text pages served. We only count unique users, but the same user on two different days will count as two hosts served, since we are analyzing daily log files.

The May, 1998 figures are for comparison, the only 1998 month we recorded.

* The July 17 and 24, 2005, figures include over 13,000 hits each week on a 1995 London Times article about the death of Fabio Casartelli. Somebody must have mentioned it on a bulletin board. The Tour de France was in progress.

Some of our "visitors" are robots researching the web to supply links to search engines like Google, MSN or Yahoo. We exclude the known ones from the totals above. Any that we failed to exclude would of course raise the number of pageviews, since they check out every changed page on the server, but they don't add much to the number of distinct hosts served. In a typical December, 2007 week we had visits from 40 robots ignoring the robot exclusion guidelines and 33 probes attempting to break into our server. In 2011 the probes have increased, but they don't count in the totals above because they are unsuccessful in downloading the page they would like to break in with.

We do not keep lists of visitors or otherwise attempt to access the info that browsers can dispense about the visitor. Our server logs the network address of your machine when you browse a page and we send you the file, but we do not attempt to log email addresses or any of the other stuff your browser may be willing to disclose. We do not set a cookie, even if your browser will accept one. With our site design we do not need any of that to serve you the pages you want to see. We have a privacy policy page if you want a more formal statement of that.

After many years we are still thrilled every time we update this page and see how many visitors have come for info.
