Tracking Outgoing Clicks

Recently there's been some improvement in technology that allows us to track out going clicks. Sitemeter offers that and it open a totally new perspective to what I can know about my visitors. Don't you think so?

I get to know what my visitors are looking for by looking at what search phrases they use to arrive on my blog. For example Windows Live Mail Beta.

But how do I know if they actually do read my blog? Or if they actually stay as long as they should? Or if the navigation on the side bar actually works?

Now I know.

Oh by the way, after using Urchin/Google Analytics for a few weeks, my comment to it is that it sucks.. Mainly due to speed and responce.

Beautiful Geomap Overlay

This is taken from the stats package by Google Analytics. Man, I just love to look at the orange dots over and over again because it shows where the majority of BlogDrive users are in this tiny little world. The bigger dots shows a higher concentration of BlogDrive visitors.

Somehow, it does makes you wonder:
1) What happened to the Canadians? Don't any Canadians uses BlogDrive at all? You can only spot a couple of dots, and that's it. o_O
2) What about China? Are they all blocked?
3) And Russia?
4) Where are all the South Americans?

Weird... Maybe BlogDrive should now morph into multi-linguality to accommodate other countries. As you can see, most (actually all) of the countries which are active in BlogDrive are English-literated regions, and then there's the rest of the world.

No matter, it's still beautiful to look at.
