Hi!

The issue of the Epicentre's traffic over the years is one I share routinely with Tom. Its amazing how much its gone up. With an average of 6-7 thousand unique hits per month we're almost around 70-80k unique hits yearly.

To put that in perspective the original Epicentre run by Simon Dodds, when he closed it after net epic's first 3 years had a TOTAL of 70k unique hits.

An increase of about 300%.

Not bad.

Ahem.... around 8k uniques a month now dude :), and that was for a month without an Incoming! release (which always sents our traffic rocketing).

this sounds a bit like boasting and gloating, but I thought I would post my stats as a comparison

In January I got 34,187 unique visits

In the last 12 months I got 270,505 unique visits

My daily average for February is 1147 unique vists

Well, I may as well add my stats here as well.

January 2004
Total Hits: 603861
Total Vistis: 12426
Average Hits Per Hour: 811
Average Visits Per Day: 400

Not quite up to Jimbos standards, but not bad at all (I still remember a time when I was happy with 400 hits per month!

Still, this is all really good news. The number of Epic fans out there in web-land must be increasing quite considerably.

Does GW show interest in this sort of statistical data? Is it relevant to their marketing of (obvious example) EA?

I doubt they even care... just want to ensure that no one steals their IPR.

My website comes up in the top five for most Google searches on GW names (and trademarks) especially on the image search, for example do a google search on Epic Armageddon

Result (look at the URLs)

Epic
www.specialist-games.com/epic40k/default.htm GW

Epic Armageddon
www.felixent.force9.co.uk/epicarmageddon.html MINE

Epic Armageddon
www.ifelix.co.uk/epicarmageddon.html MINE

The Mercenary Brush
aofk.co.uk/mercenarybrush/ea.shtml TUFFs

EPIC: Armageddon Battlestats
www.netepic.org/cgi-bin/battstat/vote.php3  NETEPICs

GW have only showed interest in my site once, when it was linked from the then Epic 40000 Resources section of the website.

Archived Epic40000 Resources Page

They have never asked me for my stats, actually they have never written to me once!

Does this increase in the numbers of hits show that Epic popularity is on the up I wonder....

We can dream :D

Cheers

the search terms used to find my website from search engines seem to show this

prior to November Epic Armageddon was not in my top 20 search terms

In December it got 74 hits and was 8th

In January it got 114 hits and was 5th

So far in February it is 4th with 86 hits (and we still have 10 days to go)

Top search term in case you are interested is Space Marines.

Hi!

Tom, I have found that searching for net epic, besides typing in the exact term is pretty lousy. We dont show up on epic searches very well and I suppose that impacts hits to the site.

On another note anyone seen the "miniatures page" hit count?

It puts all of us to shame, last time I checked today they have received about 48 thousand hits.....

Thats a lot of hits....  :D

depends on how you define hits

http://theminiaturespage.com/statistics/visitors/

tells a slightly different story with 2000-4000 visitors a day

There are ways to improve search engine rankings :), I will work on it.

Hi!

I always get confused between unique hits and just hits. I suppose the counter on the front page is just total hits?

Tom, we definitely need better search access.
