Google Analytics

Inspired by Shingo’s post, here is a summary of the statistics for this website, from my Google Analytics account (which I’ve had for the last month or so):

A word of warning about the stats – there are a lot of automated services out there that will visit websites on a regular basis, e.g. googlebot, yahoo slurp, msnbot, etc. and although Google Analytics tries to filter these out there is no guarantee it will.

Also, there are a lot of spammers that visit blogs and post comments with advertising links. These spammers sometimes use proxies in different parts of the world, so don’t get too excited about that visit from Uruguay or Ecuador or some other exotic place, it is most probably a proxy in that country for an automated spamming service.
