    YWS Stats Club Update · Apr 1, 2023
    March 2023:
    Reviews - 437
    Pageviews - 313,231*

    March '23 beat out March '22 by 2,000 pageviews! Unfortunately, it also came in with four fewer reviews. All in all, the two months had similar levels of activity, which is an accomplishment onto itself as YWS had numerous technical issues from April '22 to November '22 that would cause site activity to decrease by 50%. So for things to bounce back so quickly is great!

    * The pageviews number leaves out the "Click me instead" and "Do not click" pages for the April Fools buttons. Including those increases the pageviews to 337,129.

    February 2023:
    Reviews - 548 (57% increase over 2022 average)
    Pageviews - 243,263

    In February 2023, YWS also switched to Google Analytics v4, which does not maintain continuity of data with the previous version of Google Analytics that YWS was using. As a result, the unique visitors and visits statistics are unavailable for this month. They will be available again in March 2023.

    Are “unique visitors” individual accounts or IP addresses? Like, just curious if last month there were 9,803 individual humans who logged in or if that number is possibly inflated due to the fact that a lot of people log in on mobile AND laptop AND work/school etc.?

    It's a combination of IP addresses and cookies. Google analytics stores a cookie in your browser so that even if your IP address changes, like it frequently does if you're using mobile data, you'll still be counted as one unique visitor. Likewise, if there's ten people accessing YWS on the same IP address but different devices, they're counted as ten unique visitors because Google stores a different cookie for each.

    But, the unique visitors metric is mostly people who get here via search. The number of registered accounts to log into YWS in the past month is 502, some number of which are alt accounts.

    Neat, thanks for clarifying!

    Did you know? Wednesdays tend to be second least active day of the week by pageviews. The lowest overall? Tuesdays.

    Special Note: This now marks the 12th day in a row that visits to the site have exceeded 1,900. By comparison, this happened only 11 times throughout all of 2013.


"In my contact with people I find that, as a rule, it is only the little, narrow people who live for themselves, who never read good books, who do not travel, who never open up their souls in a way to permit them to come into contact with other souls -- with the great outside world."
