Statcounter

Well, it's the 5th February now. 1 month since i installed Statcounter on my page (here and here) and i have to say i am quite overwhelmed by the amount of views i've had in one month.
The counter isn't for brags or showing off, i just like seeing how many visits i got.
But it is going to be more than (at the time of writing this) 3,462 because i have been blogging since September 17th last year.

So here's how i'm going estimate my total views.

I am going to take that number. (3,462)
Half it which equals 1,731

I am going to times that by the full amount of months i have been blogging for.
So, October, November and December. - 3 full months
I will divide 3,642 by 4 (Approx 910) for the end of month of September.

1,731 x3 = 5,193
Add 910 = 6,103
Then add this month's total of 3,462 to give me 9,565


There, that is how i did it. Add half of Januray's total views x3 (5,193) to January's total views (3,462) plus the little bit from September (910) and that's what it gives me. (9,565)

It goes without saying that the figure is obviously not correct but it is at least closer to my true total amount of views since i started this blog.

As i said, i just like to keep track, not boast views at all and this just gives me a clearer indication....an estimate, if you will.
I think i'm being fair as well coz if i was just to go by how many views got this month and times it by 3 then the amount of views would be a lot bigger. So i halved it to equal it out a bit.


Hope all of that makes sense :P


Phhh and i still think i'm going to fail maths....

Haha

P.S Got my full French marks back today. 28/30 on the Reading paper.
So, in brief, i got 91% (another A) for the whole French Prelim. Pretty happy!
Media Prelim this morning was tough, at an early guess, i would say a B but you never know.
