Some statistics about l8tr.org usage
A regular user of my service l8tr.org wrote in to ask if I had any statistics about its use. I didn't until I grep/cut/wced a few log files, and now I do. Since its inception:
l8tr.org now uses 67 separate rules to determine whether a site is available or not. That number is growing as l8tr.org is improved. The more users the better it gets.
It's interesting to look at the distribution of 'dead times' (how long a site remained dead from it being reported to l8tr.org for monitoring and then actually being available.
The big initial bar are people who get a response in under 10 minutes; many of those people are no doubt kicking the tires to see if l8tr.org works at all! Once you pass 10 minutes you can see that the average web site comes back on line after 1h45m.
| Unique URLs monitored | 2,256 |
| Unique email addresses (i.e. # of users) | 586 |
| URLs that were still down after a week of monitoring | 205 |
| # of URLs monitored by the most active user | 763 |
| # of rules used to identify non-working sites | 67 |
| Total ad revenue | $13.37 |
