After a few months on hiatus, I thought I’d bring back the ‘random’ statistics. There’s a few details from September that I thought were interesting.

September Statistics

Random Server / Network statistics

Total Network Bandwidth Usage: 572 GigaBytes
Total Backup System Usage: 312 GigaBytes stored (Clearing some out now!)
Total Mail Sent / Received: 420,000 Mails (Estimated)
Total Spam Stopped: 1.23 Millions messages
Total Server(s) Hits: 160+ Million visitors

Our spam filters are definitely on high alert. A great deal of users have thanked us since we went live with the system in late September. Since then, it’s gobbled up 1.2 million spam messages and based on my math we’ll be at several million for October. Impressive at the very least.

The system isn’t flawless by any means however and there have been two different instances of it picking off legitimate ‘mail’. The problem is the legitimate mail originated from a blacklisted server — the only solution was to whitelist the sender. Whitelisting the e-mail sender is easily done via our online control panel though, so no fear!

Our own site has been beyond popular lately…

Random Fused Network statistics

Total visitors: 5,214
Total # of countries visited from: 101 countries!
Revenue increase: 25%+

This is a far cry from the 1,800 visitors Fused Network was receiving in January of this year. Compared to our statistics from October, 2006:

Total visitors: 1,745
Total # of countries visited from: 59 countries!

It’s quite amazing to see the ample amount of foreign visitors arriving on our sites. A great feeling that we’ve got such a far reach :)

How about your own sites?
