Estimate of how many active-visitors to essayz.com there may be!

In October 2006 there were about 450 visitors spending over-half-an-hour-per-day on the web site http://www.ssayz.com.

( During the past three years the number of such-visits-per-day has doubled each-year. )

If an "average-visitor" spends about one-hour-per-week on this web-site --- it-follows-mathematically that on-
average with about [450 visitors per day]; there are about [450 visits/day] x [7 days/week] = [3,150 visits/week].

Then we can find that about [3,150 visits/week] divided by [1 visit/week/average-visitor] = [3,150 average-visitors]
coming to this web site once each average-week, if the above assumption is valid.

The following chart gives the conclusion if you choose to assume a different amount of time-per-week spent by an average-visitor.

         It is not possible to spend less than 1/2 an hour during a visit; 
         because visits are defined as lasting-more-than-1/2-an-hour.
 
  1/2  hour   during   1 visit  per week         6,300  Visitors is The-Maximum      
    1  hour   during   2 visits per week         3,150  Visitors is Possible & Likely
    2  hours  during   4 visits per week         1,575  Visitors is Marginal         
    4  hours  during   8 visits per week           787  Visitors is Doubtful         
    8  hours  during  16 visits per week           339  Visitors is Not-likely       
   16  hours  during  31 visits per week           169  Visitors is Un-likely        
   31  hours  during  62 visits per week            84  Visitors is Absurd!          

If the number of daily visits doubles, the above number of Active-Visitors will probably have doubled.

There is clearly a close relationship between how many visits per day there are on average, and the total number of visitors. We can think about that relationship most helpfully and clearly by beginning with an over-simplified example.

Suppose that there were 7,000 different visitors who differed only in regards to what day of the week they came every time; and that they came in equal numbers each day of the week. Of course, there would be 1,000 visits each day of the week. If all visitors come every seven days the total number of visitors is seven time the number of visits each day. If the given assumption is accepted, the total number of visitors is 3,150 when the number of visits per day is 450, and proportionaly more or less for larger and/or smaller daily visit rates.

Consider that Number-of-Regular-Visitors = 7 times [Visits-per-day] divided-by [Visits-per-week-for-average-Visitor) --- because clearly there will be fewer Average-Visitors if they are each visiting many times per day to generate a given number of total visits per day.

You may find the current information about activity at this web site on the web-page: webrpt.htm
and on web-pages therein-linked-to by hyperlinks on the web page webrpt.htm; and here at top and bottom, and on the next line.

 

During the past-twelve-months ( including-only-part-of October 2006 ) the cumulative-total-number of
visits-of-over-half-an-hour-each indicated by webalyzer reports at the host computer --- has been 122,988 visits;
implying OVER 61,500 hours of time --- probably on the part of college-and-university students.

The visitors are concentrated along the west-and-east coasts of the USA, with some in mid-longitudes of the USA,
and recently there have been some visitors from two-other-countries which are not-close-to-each-other,
nor-close-to the-USA; either geographically or culturally. Visitors' privicay and other rights will be honored here.
Detailed information will not be give out about where visitors are geographically.
