I've only just found this site, but I think it's great and I'm going to link to it from mine. There's a wealth of really nice stuff and every teacher should know about it. I don't know how long you've been going, but I wish it had been here thirty years ago

Default Re: Advertise your website on eslHQ for FREE!!!

I was away for a while creating my song packages and writing a teachers guide to one of my CDs and my hits dropped right down again.
Since starting up with ESLhq they are beginning to climb again.

Can anyone here tell me what sort of software I would use that well track where my hits are coming from so I know how many are directly from ESLhq as opposed to those coming from a search engine such as Google etc.

Also it would be nice to be able to see how many actual downloads of my songs are happening, Is there something that could also tell me that information.
I really would appreciate any help in this area.
Thanks

Hi Eric,

I've just discovered ESLHQ and was delighted to see a space for advertising new sites as I've just set up my own. However, I've tried posting a message on the 'Advertise your site' thread 3 separate times and it hasn't appeared. Can you tell me why this might be?

Cheers,
Jenny Bedwell

I can't give you monthly figures yet because I've only had a counter on for a couple of weeks, but I'm certainly getting a lot of visitors from here. Thank you!

If you notice any weird things going on with the thread or post count, please let me know. It's new code and there may be a few small glitches, but for the most part it's good.
One thing, which may be my imagination, but I wonder if anyone else has noticed? It's seemed to me for a while that not all my posts were being counted. For instance, I might do three or four at once, then see my count had only gone up by two. I suspected the time difference at first - maybe I was posting just as the figures for the day changed. But today it clicked that it seems to happen when I use the quick reply rather than the "advanced" box. Does that seem feasible, or is it just my lousy maths? Which is a definite possibility ....

I think it's working right. I use both quick reply and reply and have no problems.

The stats roll over daily and it could be that you posted at the roll over time. So you lost stats from 7 days ago (2) but got today's (4) or something like that.

Hi Sue,

Actually when you use Quick Reply the page doesn't get reloaded, therefore the post count on your ad doesn't get updated. If you reload/refresh the page after you make your Quick Reply your post count should update.

Also, if you usually post at a certain time of the day, everyday, then you might actually be posting a new post at the same time as a post from 7 days ago is dropping from your count.

So after you make a QR, refresh the page or go to a different page and see if your count is updated. If you find that it is not updating, please let me know and I will take a look at the code.

Lastly, there are some forums that aren't eligible for being counted in your post content. Those forums are the Advertise your Services forum and all the forums under ESL Worksheets that link to the worksheet maker but the category ESL Worksheets does count towards your count.

Eric

Hi Eric and Mark,
Yes, I think that explains it. In fact I noticed last night that when I came in later, a post that hadn't been counted immediately had been added. So I think it's mainly the refresh thing. Plus possibly the occasional coincidence of posting at rollover time.
Thanks!
Sue

I found a little error in the post incentive code. It was preventing login and other core functions on the site...

I hope it's fixed. Please let me know if you have any problems

Actually the problem was caused because during the holiday season there was such little posting that my script hadn't taken that into consideration. it should be fixed for good but you never know...

Fantastic!

You've evolved from a promising small site to a major presence in the ESL world. I also have to create you for sending me hundreds of hits. Thank you.
