OUTREACH
This issue of TIPS is a bit different. I thought I’d share a bit about our outreach and the various countries and people that have accessed our website and pages over the past six months.
I often wonder if anyone is really looking and using the website, or am I just spinning my wheels and this is something to do in my old age.
Fortunately, there is a little plug-in (app) that monitors the website and is also part of our security when using the Internet. What does it do? First, it provides a list of every country where someone has clicked on our site; it tells how many people; and it gives their IP address, which is something quite unique. Every computer has it’s own IP address, so in theory, it’s possible to track on an individual basis.
Don’t worry, though — you are still safe — I don’t use the program for that. It does help though, when it comes to marketing. This little app provides all kinds of information on city, state, and country. In addition, it tells what pages people have visited, length of stay … it provides charts and graphs that could keep an entire team busy.
This wealth of information is very important, but I only use it to determine what sort of outreach we have and as a source of encouragement to keep going.
How did we get here?
- We started this venture in the summer of 2014;
- Went online in October, 2017;
- Passed 6,000 visits in the spring of 2018;
- Dropped from Facebook in 2020;
- Dropped from the GoDaddy web host in early 2021 and moved to a new host;
- Dropped from Google’s gmail in the fall of 2021 and reestablished with Outlook.com;
- Capped for volume by Outlook our in 2022, but not cancelled;
- March, 2022 finished transferring and reformatting through Section: 800 – The Crusades & Medieval Times.
(All dates are approximate).
The below is what your support has generated. I’ve posted some maps (which are a very small part of the app) so you can see what I’m talking about. I
Here’s a brief tally of what the maps show for the six month period, September, 2021 through February, 2022.
- Total Number of Countries 41;
- Total Number of Visitors: 1,377;
