My monthly report on internet stat porn for October

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 October 2010.

The busiest day on my blog last month was Friday 1st October and this was mainly because of my story about Nadine Dorries MP losing the plot - many thanks to the Guardian's Society Daily section, written by Patrick Butler.

Last month I had 1,693 absolute unique visitors, a massive drop from last month (the power of Guido). They made 2,162 visits and 2,776 page views.

16.28% of the visitors were through direct traffic, 45% from referring sites and 38.71% via search engines.

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

1. Twitter (=2)
2. Facebook (=2)
3. Lib Dem Blogs (=4)
4. Blogger.com (6)
5. Lib Dem Voice (=4)
6. BeterNation.org (=9)
7. Google.co.uk (7)
8. MarkPack.org.uk (110)
9. SNP Tactical Voting (8)
10. LallandsPeatWorrier.blogspot.com (12)

During October I wrote just 20 blog posts, losing the momentum from the previous months.

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

1. Andrew Marr on bloggers - socially inadequate, pimpled, single, slightly seedy, bald
2. Conservative MP Nadine Dorries loses the plot
3. Scottish Labour leader Iain Gray stabbed in the neck
4. Scottish Conservative candidate Colin McGavigan describes carers as "the great unwashed"
5. Labour's Harriet Harman and the Highland ginger rodent, Danny Alexander
6. Conservative MP Philip Hammond insults mentally ill with flippant remarks on suicides
7. Hopetoun House 10k run for Cancer Research UK
8. Conservative candidate Ivor Tiefenbrun describes Scots as "so thick"
9. Labour and the Unions are hypocrites on the cuts within the CSR
10. Clinton Cards answer back

This month is dominated by Andrew Marr slagging off bloggers, Nadine Dorries MP (again), the ginger rodent Danny Alexander MP and Harriet Harman, my 10k run for cancer research UK and Conservative candidates and MPs putting their foot in it.

The visitors to my little blog came from just 50 countries this month, down 31 from last time, the top ten were as follows;

1. United Kingdom (1)
2. United States (2)
3. Canada (4)
4. Netherlands (=7)
5. France (3)
6. Australia (=9)
