I'm using a program called
"Traffic Facts" to gather statistics about who is
visiting my website. OK, so I'm
curious! First I just wanted to find out if anyone
even visited, LOL. Then, I found that the stats
show you the country and domain/url of the visitors plus,
search words/engines. Here are some interesting
things that I found out.
I get a lot of hits through
referrals from other websites, which are NOT Bhuz.com or GildedSerpent.com (I do get lots from
them due to posting and articles written) or facebook (lots
more of those now too since I joined less than a year
ago):
Belly Dancing by Desert Moon Dance Academy, St.
Louis, MO , Bellydance.RU (Russia),
Bachetanzen.de (Germany).
There are google searches on my
first name/last name that get people here, but not for me . .
. there are a few more possessors of the "Catherine Barros"
name in this world.
Many people arrive on my
website looking for "Dina" as she continues to be of big
interest. I wish I had more opportunities to take
photographs of her in costume, but I need to go to Egypt to do
that now. The last few times she has been in
the States, the Little Egypt Event organizer doesn't allow
photography by anyone other than the official photographer . .
. so no more free advertising for them with my
photos.
Visitors from many
countries in descending order of number of
hits. I pulled the report for the first quarter in
2009 and included the top countries in a table below.
