Blog traffic analysis

Monday, July 10, 2006



Its “starting college” time of the year. With the results for professional entrance exams out, admissions are around the corner. For the past 3 weeks or so, 75% of the traffic to this blog is by the search term “NIT Trichy”. I can visualize anxious parents googling away for information on prospective good colleges they can get a seat in for their kids. Ofcourse, the post is least informative about college or admissions if that’s what parents are looking for. I hope they are not put off by all the gory details in there of what students are upto..

What’s also interesting is that the remaining traffic is due to the search for “Java Interview experiences”. With appraisals done and the suspense of salary increases out, the Pandora box is open for some organizations – attrition rate moving northward. And most of these job hops also seem to be happening around Bangalore.
