Another week traffic - am I seeing a pattern here
« on: June 15, 2007, 01:54:53 AM »
Hi,

I was looking at the traffic pattern for this site, and I think it is pretty much the same week after week!
Interesting, considering how we continue to get new people!

I think this means that people are looking at it for a while at first and then just check it from time to time, which is probably the way it is supposed to be, since you come here when you have a question, or two.

I still find it very intriguing how much traffic we continue to receive. Almost 350 registered users - amazing!

Well it depends, for example i like to come here and read many posts even if they are not from a problem that affects me, but like to extract ideas and learn possible solutions.
Others just come to read and others to ask.

Keep going  :)

You know, I was thinking about what people need most and when I think abotu it, I think about me since I am using Genesys everyday. And the answer is pretty simple - technical know-how, q&a and if there are some cool tools that I can do (mainly with reporting) then I would love it as well. Other than that, Genesys has it covered on their site.

I do not think that starting a blog or writing articles would make sense, since Genesys is doing it already and probably doing it better as well.

Overall, it seems as we have a pretty strong user loyalty! Look at it, we were tracking stats for less than one month and most of the people have been on site more than twice! Not bad :)

I was looking at refering sites and it is really interesting! I think Pavel would be happy to see that his genewiki is pretty popular!!! And did you notice that Tony has his own host at BlueYonder?!!!! Wow!

I am a bit sad that not as many people are helping me with wallboard server, but I guess it just needs time and some additional work on my side.

Best regards,
Vic

I would imagine that the lack of interest in the wallboard server is down to people not knowing about it or not needing it.
A lot of companies will willingly pay out a lot of money to integrate their legacy wallboard systems when they do an installation of Genesys.

Hi, Mark,

I agree with you on this. Other than already writing an article about it on our website, what are some of the other ways of promoting it?

I can think of -

1. preparing a demo and posting it with a YouTube link
2. preparing a PPT presentation of what it can do
3. berate you, Pavel and Tony for not meeting me while I was in London.

What do you think?
Also, we are still having problem with localization - we need somebody to localize it into English, since I do not have time for it.

Best regards,
Vic

I was ready - -Pavel was willing but we were not able!  :(

Perhaps a "shout" to the community?  You have email addresses, as do I from my Y! Group...

Tony <who apologizes profusely for not meeting with you>

I was very very very saddened that you, Pavel, and Mark have decided to abandon me in a middle of SOHO! what happened to British hospitality? I am scarred for life! :'(

It is too bad that we could not meet, but I am sure there is going to be a next time!

By the way, have you noticed how we got ... 46,000+ hits last month?

I could not believe my eyes! And most of it is NOT Google, but actual people. I have noticed that there are very few people who actually post questions here. Most of the browsing seems to be for reference purpose. Over 4000 searches per day according to the logs.

I wonder if we will ever get 1000 people on this forum...Four more years?

All the more reason to ensure that people do not need to register.  Imagine the admin nightmare if you had to allocate rights and access rules... !

This sort of strengthens my case to remove the Y! Group.  I mean, is there any real reason to have "other sources" for information, when this Forum is as easily accessible and user-friendly as it is?
