  1. Just looked at my site stats, and the top 10 hills the world is asking
    me about are:

    Pen y Fan 148 Dumyat 56 Mendick 42 Ben Cleuch 41 Arenig Fawr 33 Mickle Fell 28 Shiants 26 Dungavel
    22 Stob Dearg 22 Arenig 19

    Based on search engine hits to sub3000.comsub3000.com over the last year.

    Pen y Fan is a surprise... Looks like its a popular hill. Likewise Dumyat and Cleuch.

    The expedition probably helped the Arenigs. The internment camp is probably the reason for Dungavel,
    rather than the hill in Lanarkshire. Dont ask me why the Pentland's Mendick features.. I am not
    going there
    :-)

    LOL, did you have to pay for the facility of what people searched for? That would fascinate me too!

    For my site, the top mountains or "mountain features" would be:
    1. ben alder - 531 queries
    2. loch laggan - 344 queries
    3. cadair idris - 322 queries
    4. gaustatoppen - 304 queries
    5. lairig ghru - 285 queries
    6. bristly ridge - 273 queries
    7. jacks rake - 264 queries
    ------------------------------
    29,314 search terms not listed

    Interesting, would the top two have anything to do with Monarch of the Glen?

    It comes with blueyonder broadband.. I have only just discovered it, through a link on my stats
    page. Lots of goodies there.

    You can get these statistics for free with a program hosted here analog.cxanalog.cx

    I use it to good effect on my website. compsoc.man.ac.uklogs.html

    It requires that you have access log files in the first place. I didn't have access to those with my
    webserver, so I downloaded a program that generates log files in the background for me.

    Once you have these log files, it's a matter of some configuration and then you can just leave it to
    run in the background.

    You should stick 'Ben Bogle' on a page and see if that attracts hits. Not been to Laggan since July,
    but last weekend, I had a post Croughanmoira drink in Fitzgerald's Bar, Avoca. ( Ballykissangel.)

    Sorry, could you expand on that a little, it might as well be in chinese to me :-)

    A bit hard to explain in plain english but here goes.

    1. When you access a website, an instruction is sent to the website's computer to deliver a webpage
    to your machine.

    2. The instruction gives information such as webpage requested, the webpage visited before, time of
    access, any search queries used in a search engine.

    3.This instruction can be stored in a log as a single entry

    4. The log is a file that stores thousands of instructions - all the access requests to
    your website.

    5. You can use the program mentioned before (Analog) to analyse these logfiles and deliver
    statistics as to how your site has been accessed.

    Hope this helps your understanding a bit more. It took a little time for me to figure out
    all of this.
