SatelliteGuys Stats

[Scott Greczkowski]

Haven't posted one of these in awhile. So here are some stats on SatelliteGuys from our Firewall company with some interesting stats.

Interesting that SatGuys has so many overseas visitors.

Interesting that SatGuys has so many overseas visitors.

With 22% of the traffic being flagged as "bots", that's probably a lot of what you're seeing as overseas visitors.

Maybe some of the bot traffic is the phone apps.

I'm pleased that IE usage is low. I'll be happier when it is all gone and site coders no longer have to waste resources on maintaining workarounds for it.

In the grand scheme of things, at least compared to US visitors, they average about 1/2 of 1% for each country. Not counting Canada in that, of course. Not counting Germany either as those numbers seem odd - more visitors from Germany than Canada ? Maybe many of the bots pretend to be from there....

I'm surprised how high Opera usage is. Who uses Opera anymore ? And why ?

I am looking on P.3, and I am shocked at the modest percentage of people using mobile access.

 

[KE4EST]

Yes, very interesting.

Not terribly surprised to see IE that low, but was kinda surprised to see that even Opera was ahead of it!

Wonder if the numbers combine Edge and IE, or if Edge is part of the "Other" group. Either way, Edge doesn't appear to be making much headway vs. the Chrome/Firefox majority.

Because it may be more secure than Chrome? Most of the differences between Chrome and Opera are security measures that Opera has and Chrome doesn't.

I use brave browser sometimes as it’s faster and blocks ads. Works great for YouTube. For sat guys I use the app.

Why not just use Chrome with an ad-blocker ? Well, technically you already are but someone just changed the name....

 

[Stargazer]

Can you get an ad blocker on chrome for an iPhone that blocks out YouTube ads?

Good point, should we assume "Mobile" includes the SatelliteGuys App in addition to browsers run on a tablet/phone? Or, does "Safari" include both macOS as well as iOS Safari?

 

[Hall]

"Mobile" is under devices so no distinction to the type of browser. It should include the SatGuys app and browsers such as Safari, Chrome, Firefox, etc.

By the same token, under "Browser", Chrome probably includes computers and mobile devices. Same should apply to Safari and Firefox. Heh, I think Opera even has a mobile browser.
