Does anyone read my site???

I’ve had Alaya.net for a while now. It has changed and evolved over time. I wonder though how many people actually ever read it?

From what I gather from the stats data, it is mostly visited by people who find one of my technical articles when they are search for a specific solution to a problem.

Here is some info on the actual stats from the site. This is for the current month from May 1 to today (the 18th). This info is from the program Awstats.

Summary
Reported period Month May 2016
First visit 01 May 2016 – 00:03
Last visit 18 May 2016 – 07:10

Unique visitors: 1,885
Number of visits: 2,348
Pages: 6,282
Hits: 7,008

These numbers go up and down every month but are more or less in similar ranges.

The daily breakdown of visits shows between 50 – 200 per day. It looks like there have been more visits on Thursdays than other days by a slight margin.

Here’s some more info:

Locales Pages Hits Bandwidth
United States us 3,333 3,507 23.10 MB
Ukraine ua 279 279 9.09 MB

So I have tried to block the entire country of Ukraine (along with Russia) in my .htaccess file, but apparently some addresses were not blocked. I can guarantee you that every visit from Ukraine or Russia is malicious. I highly recommend completely blocking Ukraine and Russia from your websites.

Personally I think the US government and the European Union should simply block Russia, Ukraine, and China completely from the Internet. I’m totally serious. (You don’t see Chinese addresses here but you will see them in huge numbers in other log files from their continual break-in attempts).

Here’s some more info:

Robots/Spiders visitors Hits
Unknown robot (identified by ‘bot’ followed by a space or one of the following characters _+:,.;/\-) 708
Unknown robot (identified by ‘spider’) 627
Googlebot 394

Some of these (unknown ones) I try to block with Wordfence.

Visits duration
0s-30s 2,088
30s-2mn 83
2mn-5mn 55

Virtually no visits are over 30 seconds (maybe only the ardent attackers).

Pages-URL (Top 25)
/wp-signup.php 1,793
/wp-login.php 1,606

Definitely most visits are attackers trying to get in. Wordfence should be blocking them.

Browsers (Top 10)
Opera 2,539
Unknown 1,314
MS Internet Explorer 1,077

Opera, Unknown, and IE are the top 3 browsers. LOL.
