 total sl-prokeys hits since April, 2003

On Thursday, August 21, 2003, at 2:45pm, my wife of 34 years, Rebecca, died in my arms in an emergency room.

The last words we spoke were in perfect synchronization: "I love you with all my heart."

 
 

Prokeys Website Logs

updated June 26, 2013

Years ago, we bought a website log analyzer, known as WebLog Expert.  It downloads the raw logs from our webhost server, and provides several different kinds of reports about the activity of our website. 

 

Our webhost updates the logs at about 7:00am, so they're slightly out of sync, because the logs don't start and stop at exactly midnight.

 

These are the Summary page and Activity pages for April, 2013. 

Here are the Summary and Activity pages for June 9, 2012 through part of June 22, 2013.

(the log for June 22, 2013 is incomplete until the June 23, 2013 update runs, as mentioned above) 

It's far too much work to do all the individual months, so the pages shown are as much as I can do now.

 

Use your backspace key to return here from the above links.

 

We also use the AXS Visitor Tracking program, which shows visitor activity in real time.  Here is our AXS log for June 22, 2013 through part of June 23, 2013.

This is less than one full day. (warning: it's huge and it's pretty boring, too)

 

Sometimes, spiders or robots scan this site, and I discover hundred (occasionally thousands) of hits from these "crawlers" in the logs.  Some of them are legitimate search engines, such as Yahoo, MSN, Google, etc. 

 

Others are "scumbag scrapers" - they steal whatever content they want.  They steal ALL your content. 

Why are my pictures, music, and videos on websites in Russia and China?

 

So far, I've discovered over a dozen Chinese and Russian "scumbag scrapers".

I researched ways to block many of them, but I doubt anyone could block them all.  Sometimes they are hitting pages, pictures, and videos, so they are "hits" - even though they're "Definitely Not Wanted Hits".

 

The blocks are immediate, and they aren't even logged in AXS, but are logged in the website logs. 

I wrote a few batch files to extract just the "scumbag scrapers" from the logs, and it looks like some of the blocks are working pretty well. 

 

Can you believe this?  It's ONE "scumbag scraper" in Russia.  I did a "FIND" on the website log, and isolated "Baidu" to a little text file.

What's amazing is it's only 8:09am through 9:05am!  ONE HOUR!  This happens a lot.  These "scumbag scrapers" are NOT GOOD.
