The history behind this site This site's story begun in 1998. After I have upgraded my computer, from an aging 386 to the latest Pentium 200 MMX, I started to think how could I give "digital life" to my hobby. I had to choose between starting to write about aircraft in Word, or in HTML format. |
Site, page and counters
My site is just as the name says - a SITE. The difference between a site and a page, is that a site can contain more pages, but a page can never contain one or more sites.
For example, http://sorin.resourcez.com is the address of my site, a place on the world wide web (Internet).
http://sorin.resourcez.com/sorin.html
http://sorin.resourcez.com/pictures.html and
http://sorin.resourcez.com/sag.html are pages on my site. The three pages, respectively sorin.html, pictures.html and sag.html are all incorporated into my site.
Therefore, when I am talking about my site, I am talking about the entire http://sorin.resourcez.com/. So, if I am stating anywhere that between june 1999 and may 2003 I had 30,000 hits on my site, it means I had 30,000 hits on all the pages incorporated into my site, combined.
If I display the number of hits for a page, it means the number of hits for that page alone, and not the entire site.
Wherever you see displayed a counter in this site (in every page incorporated into it), you see the number of hits for that particular page only ! The total number of this site can not be calculated, updated and displayed by Yahoo.
So, when I am refering to my site, I am refering to the entire collection of directories and pages that it contains, while when I'm refering to a page, "this page", it means simply that - that particular page.
Yahoo has problems with its counters. They are often reset, hits get lost if you move pages, and sometimes the count decreases (don't ask me how they "managed" that...). Therefore, it is a lot of work to calculate the total number of hits.
From archives, saved statistics, current statistics and monthly views, I have determined that between mid 2000 and march 2006, this entire website had gathered approximately 60,000 hits.
Currently, the site records an average of 500 hits per month. I have also received dozens of e-mails about this website, most were to congratulate me, some had corrections, and others were questions about aircraft. I answer all e-mails.
Please remember this site is not limited to the index page.
