1000 Visits from 37 Countries

This is just a post to acknowledge that the blog has received 1000 visits from 37 different countries since I started taking the Jag apart 4 months ago. It seems my trip into the valley of rust has been of amusement to quite a few people.

Average time spent on the site is 3:37s. 60% of my visitors don't come back, so thats pretty poor retention in marketing speak. And the average user visits 2.7 pages.

Most number of hits (49%) come from the terrorist terrorizers, land of liberty, recession causers good'ol U.S of A.





Second highest number of hits (11%) come from a country that would make living in the frozen wastelands of Mars seem like a summer vacation - my home for the last 4 years, Canada!


Third (11%), giving us Mad Max, Holden, home of things that jump around with big pouches on their bellies and a small furry bear that eats eucalyptus leaves, the one and only down-under, give it up for Australia.


Fourth (10%) is Jaguar country and home of my pen-pal and fellow Jag lover, Esta-Jane, the Blackadder, the price of darkness himself (Lucas Electronics) and Aston Martin - the United Kingdom




Fifth (5%) is Finland - Go Hakkinen! You can drive my 190E anytime man, just teach me the flick!





Then we have New Zealand (4%), India (2%), Sweden (2%), Germany (1%) and finally at 10th place is the Netherlands (~1%). The other 27 countries, which includes places like Costa Rica, Estonia, Malaysia, Latvia, Iceland, Bulgaria etc.. make up less than 10% of the hits on the blog.

With 4x more pages viewed per visit than the Americans, the French are the most inquisitive bunch of the lot.





With an average time of 47mins per visit, the Swedes are by far the most intrigued by what I have to say. But it easily could be because they don't like to close open windows.





Say hello in the comments section. Its always nice to hear from fellow enthusiasts.
