Just how many women read this blog?

When I put this blog online, I also added a snippet of code from Google's powerful Analytics program. This allows me to see how many visitors there are to the site and exactly how many...

...pages of the site are read by each visitor (on average). I thought you might be interested in the numbers of people who are visiting the site.

March 9th:
I sent out the email invitation to 105 email addresses of women in our church.
60 unique visitors to the site.
296 pageviews.
4.93 pageviews per unique visitor (on average) on that day.

Week One: March 4-10
6.06 pageviews per unique visitor (P/V)
121 unique visitors
733 pageviews

Week Two: March 11-17
5.33 P/V
97 unique visitors
517 pageviews

I am working with the Broadway Media Team on an email database solution. When this is put into place, I will send another email and will keep you posted on how the website traffic is affected by the reminder to visit this blog.

I find these statistics very encouraging. Not every unique visitor is associated with Broadway Church, but many are. I hope that this blog continues to be a source of worthwhile reading and a place to connect.

Glossary:
unique visitor
This is a statistical term that is used to describe one visit from one IP address (internet protocol). Each computer has an IP address. When the website is visited from that computer, it is "counted" as a visitor one time (per week), the IP address is remembered and not re-counted regardless of how often that computer visits the website during that one week.

pageview
This is a term that describes how many pages of a website are visited. If you go to the homepage of this blog, that is 1 pageview. If you click on the Read More and go to the full story, that is 1 more pageview.
