YUFA’s Website Gets Lots of Traffic
19 Mar 04 - YUFA’s
website continues to log large numbers of visitors. Since YUFA moved to
communicating with members largely through its website and email, the
number of visitors to the site has been increasing.
Measuring
the number of people who view the site is not as easy a task as it might
seem. There are several measures for website activity including the number
of requests for file views, the number of files and so on. The best
measure for the purposes of saying something about the popularity of the
site appears to be the number of visits. By this measure we had
4,145 in January and 3,616 visits in February of 2004. On occasion, there
are over 250 visits to the website
in a single day. The interest in the
site has been increasing in the past year.
The most popular page requests are for sections of the contract. Pages of advice for people offered tenure track positions were also frequently accessed suggesting that our newest and prospective members are taking advantage of the great advice YUFA is offering.
