Woopra is a web analytic tool that allows you to see live stats of your site. I signed up for Woopra a while ago and tried using it, but unfortunately, I couldn’t get it to work in China thanks to the Great Firewall.
Tom Johnson wrote a post about his experience using Woopra. He had some interesting insights to share about Woopra’s analysis of his blog stats, which confirmed my own analysis of Shanghai Tech Writer using Google Analytics.
- Search engines produce the majority of blog traffic. Actually, I’ve been having some indexing problem recently so I get more traffic from referrals like WriterRiver, StumbleUpon, and Digg.
- Average time spent on Shanghai Tech Writer per visitor is about 3 minutes or 2.4 page views.
- More than half of the visitors are first time visitors and most likely, they won’t revisit again.
- Posts with the most page view are not always the best posts.
- A lot of traffic comes from a number of keywords and a few that are completely irrelevant.
- Half the visitors are from the U.S. The rest from 50+ other countries.
Top Ten Keywords Search
Here’s a list of the top ten search queries that bring visitors to Shanghai Tech Writer.
- shanghai tech writer
- technical writer china
- embed autoviewer
- technical writing
- autoviewer picasa
- vitamix
- em dash shortcut
- IT writers shanghai
- characteristics of overachievers
- using Darkzen theme
On a funny note, I got one hit from a visitor in China searching "technial writer job shanghai."
