mindprod.com hits
Roedy Green - 12 Jan 2006 00:03 GMT For some reason yesterday was by far the highest hits ever recorded at mindprod.com. I wonder if anyone knows why. Was it mentioned in the news somewhere?

It would be funny if it were an amateur hacker attempt at a DOS attack and they FAILED cause you just have too much bandwidth.

But not to the home page which is where I track hits, even though the Java home page and the unmaintainable code page get even more hits.. If Google or other search engine visited, There would just be a lot of hits in general, and a hit to even the obscure pages.
Google will likely spider me more frequently now that I am generating a sitemap for it to let it do that more efficiently.. See http://mindprod.com/products1.html#SITEMAP

Earlier, search for java stuff did not return mindprod.com pages that frequently. Now its pretty much more frequent to see mindprod.com on the first page.

Now its pretty much more frequent to see mindprod.com on >the first page. I keep getting myself all the time now when I use Google. I think somebody there secretly jostled something with their elbows because they liked my left wing politics. I have sent them about a dozen ideas for new products and faster search engines which might have brought me to the attention of some Google human.
It also have Google ads, which logically should tempt Google to throw more hits my way.
Other thoughts. I have many small pages that concentrate on one small topic with links to other popular pages on the same topic.
My pages are internally heavily cross linked. Possibly, google counts those partially in its rankings as if they were offsite links.

Sanjay - 12 Jan 2006 18:01 GMT Has anybody tried google analytics, that can give a good reports on the usage of the sites.

We it would certainly explain your high rating ;)
Usenet tends to get mirrored on sites too, especially technical groups. Those could count as individual links too.

Roedy I think you are seeing a truer hit rate now. People are not just dropping the link because of the old slow response time.. I know I did many times. It's a pleasure to visit your site now. Ya know you build a bigger door you can get more people thru it.
Thanks in Advance... IchBin, Pocono Lake, Pa, USA http://weconsultants.servebeer.com/JHackerAppManager __________________________________________________________________________
