Just the stats

I am a bit of a numbers junkie. I was just looking at the web logs for seaturtle.org and came across some interesting numbers. Seaturtle.org continues to receive more than 2 million hits per month, but perhaps more impressive are the 50,000-70,000+ unique visitors each month. That's a lot of turtle enthusiasts!

Of these visitors about 60% are coming directly to seaturtle.org (ie they are not coming through a search engine or referred from another site). About 25% are referred by search engines (mostly google) and 15% are referred from other web sites. Want to know where your site stands?

Here are the Top 10 Sites referring visitors to seaturtle.org.

10. Marine Conservation Society UK

9. FalconTrak
