Re: Lurkers?
There's 5000 members?!
Re: Lurkers?
The members section of the site shows only 148 registered users - I guess the 'users' in the above is people who have viewed the webpage? That's quite a lot of lurkers!
Although is the 5,241 IP address/i.e. devices rather than individual users?

Re: Lurkers?
Those are sessions - which is essentially a visit to the site by a user. The above was over a timeframe of 5 months.
Re: Lurkers?
Interesting - so the number is pretty meaningless but it shows overseas usage.
Does it not flag if you use your phone abroad or does that show up as a UK user still (must do I guess because I logged in from Italy within the last 5 months and that doesn't show (unless its outside the top ten I guess).

Re: Lurkers?
It's useful metric when taken in the context of the other figures - hits, sessions, durations etc. Not for this forum, but if your website is business related then Google Analytics is a powerful tool to see reach, how long people spend on there, and so on.
Location will be based on IP address. Italy was number 11 !

Re: Lurkers?
No UAE interestingly... maybe JL lives in Germany these days... it does feature suspiciously highly!!
Re: Lurkers?
Has jl been on at all the last 5 months?
Re: Lurkers?
No idea when JL was last on (though his post count is still higher than mine). I chatted via email not long after he left and he wasn’t missing it.
I like the idea that the lurkers are all the leavers. That TVR bloke - whose friends should have told him really about his vest top - is probably one of them then.

Re: Lurkers?
I'm always surprised by the amount of thread views compared to the number of replies.
