When the OpenSim website was changed recently by Sean, he installed some extra software to track visitors on the site and what content we need to improve. It also gives us some neat stats on who visits the website in terms of browser, country, etc.

I’d like to share some figures generated over the last month since the change:

Between October 5th and October 27th, we have had 21,000 visits to the website with 82,500 pageviews – the average user spent approximately 5 minutes on the site. 50.7% of visits to the site are new visitors. 54.74% of the visitors to the site were using Firefox, and a whopping 14.61% were using Linux (OSX being 8.77%).

The most popular page on the website is the downloads page (suprise suprise), followed by user documentation, the grid list, configuration and build instructions. The top exit pages (where people stop reading or leave) are pretty much in the same order.

In terms of countries – the US has the largest share of visitors accounting for approximately 30% of our visitors, followed by the UK (10%), Germany (9%), France (7%), Japan (5%), Italy (5%), Spain (4%), China (3%), Netherlands (3%) and Australia (2.5%).

Interestingly, only 60% of our visitors come from English speaking countries – meaning we may actually want to start providing better support for foreign languages at some point in the near future.
