    So that’s 1 million unique users and twice as many identikit users with an Audi, a woodburner, a rigid singlespeed 29er, a malt whisky collection and a coffee fetish?

    a typical visit lasting 6 minutes and 41 seconds.

    I’m curious as to how that figure is arrived at. Far as I know, there’s no auto-refresh on forum pages; so you can’t readily tell the difference between a reader opening a single page and then immediately closing it, and another sitting there gazing at it for half an hour. Presumably then, it’s a best guess based on when perceived activity stops.

    Time on site will be less now that there are only 35 posts per page as it’ll take less time to read. Mind you, that will have increased page impressions, so it’s not all bad.

    Google ‘Google Analytics’ it’s all there and you can add it to your website for free…..

    So if I login from home, from my iPhone and from my work PC I take it that counts as 3 ‘individual users’?

    For now yes. Unless Singletrack have signed up to the Universal Analytics Beta.

    Soon Google are dropping tracking users by cookies and switching to user ID’s which will allow tracking of individuals across multiple devices.

    Bounce rate has increased by 7% over this time last year.

    That’s not bad at all, I’d have expected it to be higher.

    I think Mark might mean 7 percentage points, which is an increase of about 14%

    I skim-read the link posted earlier and didn’t see that specific question answered. I’m curious, but I don’t care enough to wade through a ream of documentation to find out.

    Does this mean the hamster have got a bonus for the year? Some little chocolate treats or a bit of oil on their wheel? Maybe even time off for good behaviour where they can roam the office in a hamster ball?

    This guy here worked out how to narrow the figure down to get the value pretty much bang on by comparing the stats between logged on/logged off visits, thus answering the “I log on via numerous devices” question.

    DavidB – Yes, for his site but the process would have to be carried out for every site on order for it to be a useful figure. What’s important in web stats is normally comparison between sites. So as long as we are all measuring the same thing, we can compare.

    Personally I always thought pageviews and visits were more useful comparators, but unless I can persuade the rest of the web and advertising industries that doesn’t really mean much.

    If you mean pageviews to visits ratio then I agree. As an advertiser I would want to see a site where lots of users spend a lot of time (which is what you get if you reduce your unique visitors figure 😉 )

    Monday was our busiest day in history. 80,025 visits. We have now gone over 2 million visits in the last month.

    Mark – technical question – what’s at the back end of STW (if you can disclose such things)? Cloud based virtual server? Dedicated physical server? Multiple virtual/physical?

    Ah, that’s just the swelling due to frostbite – you should probably get to hospital about that

    This suggests a flaw in the theory that a million monkeys with a million typewriters will reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. Then again, only a tiny fraction of us ‘users’ post in the forums.

    We should renegotiate our rates with STW Towers as it’s obvious we’re under paid right now…..

    Hmmm, another banana would come in handy.
