Server Statistics for psyctc.sghms.ac.uk to 12.xi.96

produced by MediaHouse IIS Assistant which I have to advise people against purchasing. Their first version crashed the service at midnight from time to time if you were unlucky and they offer NO utilities to merge statistics so as I changed the location of the program when I upgraded I lose all my old data

Isn't that wonderful! MediaHouse upgrade their program so the new one is incompatible with the old. The new data are continuing to build up and this is the historical snapshot some time on 12.xi.96!

Dunno what sort of within-month trends you might expect to see unless
some 'bots are scheduled by the date in the month. However, if that's
the case, MediaHouse are giving you & me the chance to see it!

You can see two holes when I went on leave and, by Sod's law, the server went down; the first time through a problem with this monitoring software which MediaHouse have fixed, the second through a combination of a (long, the UPS is good for 20 minutes odd!) power failure in the Medical School coupled with the fact I'd left a floppy in the A: drive so the machine didn't reboot when the power came back. C'est la vie.

You can also see the effect of changing all the files on the old server to stubs pointing to their equivalents here. I made that change on 18.x.96 and it's clear the traffic is up. (From June to October all the files on the old site started with a pointer to this site but had the rest of their content there, from about August it strongly recommended transferring allegiance. I guess that doesn't make people shift). As of 18.x.96 I've also changed the ROBOT.TXT file on the old server to prevent access to well-behaved search engines' crawlers which should mean the old site ceases to appear in the main search engines' outputs soon. I've also started a campaign of Emailing site authors who have pointers to the old site.
