My monthly report on internet stat porn

So, continuing my monthly stat porn figures for anyone who is remotely interested in who reads my little blog, the monthly summary of my visitor stats according to google analytics is as below for September 2010.

The busiest day on my blog last month was Wednesday 1st September and the story was about the coalition replacing NHS Direct but highlighting Labour's hypocrisy and lies on this as it was in their election manifesto, to do the very same thing - many thanks to Guido Fawkes for linking to the story.

Last month I had 6,950 absolute unique visitors, over 2,500 up from last month. They made 8,169 visits and 10,231 page views.

11.46% of the visitors were through direct traffic, 59.53% from referring sites and 29.01% via search engines.

So, my top 10 referring sites for the last month (with previous position in brackets) were;

1. Order-Order.com (1)
=2. Facebook (3)
=2. Twitter (2)
=4. Lib Dem Blogs (4)
=4. Lib Dem Voice (5)
6. Blogger.com (7)
7. Google.co.uk (8)
8. SNP Tactical Voting (6)
9. Total Politics (49)
9. Better Nation (New Entry)

During September I wrote 31 blog posts, once again keeping up the momentum from the month before.

The top 10 stories by direct page views that you've read most were;

1. John Prescott, Labour and the truth about NHS Direct
2. William Hague's special adviser Christopher Myers quits
3. The Liberal Democrats Conference in Liverpool was a disaster
4. Clinton Cards - homophobic or just plain lazy?
5. No word from Clinton Cards on whether they are homophobic or just plain lazy?
6. Conservative Minister to address the Liberal Democrat Conference this weekend
7. Chris Bryant MP tells Sky's Kay Burley she's a bit dim
8. Rugby star Gavin Henson strips off to raise awareness for male cancer
9. Clinton Cards answer back
10. Conservative MP Nadine Dorries loses the plot

This month is dominated by Clinton Cards stories, Labour's lies about NHS Direct (again), Conservatives quitting, Kay Burley is dim according to Chris Bryant MP, a naked Gavin Henson and Conservative MP Nadine Dorries loses the plot once more.

The visitors to my little blog came from 81 countries this month, up 13 from 68 last time, the top ten were as follows;

1. United Kingdom (1)
2. United States (2)
3. France (3)

Wooo! I like this!

I may have to do the same myself with mine so apologies if I nick your idea Andrew!

Admittedly my own traffic numbers are low but hopefully, small acorns and all that...

Mark P - thank you.

Mark C - I pinched the idea from Stephen Glenn and when I look back at my first numbers my little blog is a small sapling if yours is an acorn.
