Even judging from my web logs, it must be wedding season: “bridal party” was the top search leading for April. Since I haven’t been to any weddings recently, people must be hitting some old photos. In fact, 98% of the bandwidth is photos; only 55,000 of 120,000 requests were for pages. Image searches are the top referrers, and I was surprised to see images.snap.com surpass images.google.com last month.
I was also finally motivated to automate this log crunching; a bit of date, wget, and cron scripting will save me from trying to remember what to run every month. In addition to parsing out the statistics for just my part of the botos.com doman, I also run custom statistics on popular photos and feed subscribers - currently 46 subscribers mostly using Firefox as a feed reader.
