50 Countries!

Mrs C — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 07:16:02 +0000

Today we had a visit from our 50th country, according to Google Analytics. Most of our visits have been from Australia (of course!), with the United States second and Canada and the United Kingdom pretty much tied for third. There are many countries from which we have had only one visit, most of which do not have English as their first language. I wonder how many of these visitors have used our translation widget?

On the map pictured above, the darker the color the more visits we have had from that country. We are a bit light on for African visitors, and we’d love someone from Russia to visit – that would color a huge section of our map! Is anyone able to help us out with visitors from new places?

Mrs C has set up Google Analytics to look at the statistics and information of our site’s visitors. Since April 5, we have had visitors from 33 different countries! If you are a visitor from anywhere other than our school, please post a comment telling us where you are from and how you found us.

ClustrMaps “User of the Month”!

Mrs C — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 00:43:52 +0000

How lucky for us! Mrs C has received an email telling her that we have been selected as a ClustrMaps “User of the Month“. For the next TWO YEARS we will be upgraded to a ClustrMaps Plus account, for free! A Plus account will let us click on the map to show a zoomed in shot of where our visitors have come from, continent by continent. It will start to work at our next map upgrade, which should be any day now.

This is what our ClustrMap looks like today, June 13, 2008:

ClustrMaps – we love you!

There’s a new, easy way to put a ClustrMap onto a learnerblog, so Mrs C, our fearless leader, has put one on all of our student blogs! (She really should be doing something else in the holidays, but she just can’t help herself.)

The ClustrMaps usually take a few days to get going, but once they do, it should be very interesting for everyone to see where their visitors are coming from. Check out our student blogs by following the page menu at the top of this page, or click HERE.

Visitors from All Over!

Mrs C — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 23:46:51 +0000

This blog has been open since January 1, 2008, although it’s only been in class use since the end of January when we started the new school year. Since then, we have had visitors from ten countries: Australia (of course!), USA, England, France, Netherlands, Iran, South Korea, Israel, New Zealand and Canada. That’s a pretty good spread, I think.

So, what brings these visitors? How do they find us? We know that our travelling class member Cointha has visited our site from England, France and the Netherlands. We know that some people from the USA linked to this site from last year’s blog. What about the others? How did they find us?

If you are a visitor that doesn’t know one of us personally, we’d really appreciate your posting a comment to tell us how you found us. Thanks!
