Description
What happened
- Chris has been working with the Jupyter project to improve our web traffic tracking, which has been undermaintained for a few years now.
- Here are a few things he's learned:
- Plausible.io is a nice and GDPR-friendly service for tracking web analytics. It is pretty expensive though.
- https://plausible.io/jupyter.org shows Jupyter's web traffic
- Jupyter.org gets something like 45,000 hits a day.
- Analytics for jupyter.org:
- ReadTheDocs.org has an analytics add-on!
- https://docs.readthedocs.com/platform/stable/traffic-analytics.html-
- Analytics for docs.jupyter.org :
- GitHub has repository analytics.
- Insights -> Traffic
- jupyter/jupyter example:
- https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/viewing-activity-and-data-for-your-repository/viewing-traffic-to-a-repository
Why is it valuable
- Analytics are a helpful way to understand how people are learning and exploring your website and documentation.
- They help us make better decisions about where to focus limited capacity for improving documentation and communication.
Learn more
- Re-enable site analytics for jupyter.org jupyter/jupyter.github.io#815 is the issue where we are coordinating this
Acknowledgements
