This deliverable presents usage statistics of the EMANICS web site [1] and the
SimpleWeb [2] collected by means of AWStats [3], with the intention to learn about the impact of the dissemination initiatives set since the beginning of the NoE in January 2006. In addition, other statistical data are provided by means of Google Analytics [4] but only for the EMANICS site. Data collection for EMANICS covers the period from October 2006 to May 2007 whereas the SimpleWeb statistics are available since the beginning of project.

The average number of visits per month for the EMANICS website is 1343, which is quite frequent but not high result. Also, the average bandwidth per month is 410 MB which is reasonable because the site does not contain big files for downloading. On the other hand, Simpleweb shows visit figures which are one order of magnitude higher and volumes of data that are almost two orders of magnitude higher for obvious reasons.

The “Top 10 of domains/countries” shows that most recognized (solved by DNS) domains visiting EMANICS site belong to project participants located in Poland, Germany, France, United Kingdom and Netherlands. The SimpleWeb shows much more heterogeneous sources because it is known worldwide since years.

Visits duration statistics are quite typical and the report shows that more than 60% of visits lasted between 0 and 30 s. Figures in the same order of magnitude were also collected for Simpleweb in June 2007.The Simpleweb new installed tools have showed an initial clear growth, followed by a more stable pattern in the last few months. In particular, podcasts experienced a cleardemand when they were made available.Level of new visits in the EMANICS site calculated by Google Analytics varies mostly between 50% and 100% and there is no visible constant growing or decreasing trendsd uring observed period. This means the EMANICS website is constantly attracting new visitors. Another similar statistic reveals that there is a higher level of new visitors (57%)comparing to returning visitors (42%).Google Analytics also facilitates statistics on keywords used to locate the site, traffic sources and referring sites. The most used keyword is “emanics”. Also most referring sites are also from EMANICS participants.
