Paul, the Captcha is to stop the bots from logging in and posting on the site. We don't want them spamming the site with ads.

We've no problem with the bots reading the pages of the site, though. Indexing bots (known as spiders) crawl the web and index what they find. When someone searches for a word on Google, it already knows the word is on our site.

Interisting information

That was me! I read 'Green Eggs and Ham', I did.

Yay! Any particular reason, or was it just hundreds of minds with a single thought?

I was writing about Dr Seuss' 'The Lorax', and one thing led to another – well, it led to 'Green and Ham'

Don't know about anyone else, mind.

Brave new world

Greetings Stats Fans - here's the report for March

Google Analytics is looking good and green again. The number of unique users was 108,000 compared to 101,000 in the previous period. The number of Page Views is up to 445,000 compared to 436,000 in the previous period.

Traffic via social media increased. TripAdvisor linked to Hadrian's Wall and the Isle of Wight's Literary Connections - very cultured.

Aside from the usual suspect Entries, Mehran Karimi Nasseri - In Transit, Danny Boy and Mathematical Games are still popular. The Radio Show effect is still strong - The Music of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was viewed 800 times compared to 250 times last month.

Perhaps our entry on Tom Lehrer will see an uptick in April?

TripAdvisor linked to Hadrian's Wall and the Isle of Wight's Literary Connections.
How dose that work then?

I must admit that I'm intrigued to see the pages linked from too. (Both Bobstafford and I have written entries on Hadrian's Wall).

With hammer and chisel?

I see it was this Entry A87726955 and it was linked to in a TripAdvisor review of Hadrian's Wall

Just another brick in the wall.

Greetings stats fans! Here's the report for April.

After the surge in March following the Radio Show the number of users in April is down to 82,000. The number of page views is also down, to 358,000.

The usual suspect Entries are still popular - Applications of Enzymes, Name Jokes, How to Bake a Cake with a Silicone Mould, etc.

Traffic Lights and Centaurs had another resurgence. Newly popular are Regulating Blood pH, Billy Joel's 'We didn't start the Fire', Larry Grayson, Potato Crisps, and Theories of Human Motivation!

"Traffic Lights and Centaurs had another resurgence." [H2G2 guide editors]

So, if I want to see some centaurs, I should go to traffic lights, where they hang out?

Greetings Stats Fans! Here is the May Report

Stats are down again, but there was a surge on Towel Day as traffic via social media increased and we gained new followers - 'The First Towel Day' Entry was viewed 400 times compared to 60 in the previous month. There were 77,000 unique users compared to 85,000 in April and 335,000 page views compared to 369,000.

thank you!
