Yesterday I had a look at the stats for Shenanchie’s Kitchen, and since switching the site over to its new web space and format six days ago there have been just over one thousand visitors. Wow! That may seem like chopped chicken when compared to some of the major recipe and cooking sites, but that’s quite a haul for my little old Gael pages. However, before patting myself on the back I have to take into account that many of the hits are the result of people trying to access the now non-existent food articles. Each old page that once contained a food article now automatically forwards to Shenanchie’s Kitchen, and I’ll bet my morning coffee this is where at least half of the hits are coming from.

 

The e-mail version of the newsletter “Food Notes” is being released tomorrow, so we’ll see what result that has on the stats. I’m not trying to win any contests, but I find it interesting to see how the counter shoots up one day, and then receives just a few hits the next day. A nice feature of the new space at Tripod includes a listing of IP addresses accessing the site along with daily/weekly/monthly graphs of the number of visitors browsing through.

 

Foodstuff is much more interesting, of course…
