One of our readers kindly pointed us to a website called statbrain.com. We’ve never heard of this site before but it was quite interesting to see what information the website generated.

Basically, according to the website (source: www.statbrain.com) here’s what it does:

With Statbrain.com you can find out how many visits any site has, enter the site into the form below.

Statbrain uses different resources on the web combined with mathematical and statistical methods to estimate how many visits a website has. Please enter the URL of the website that you would like to check.

We thought we’d share this information with you so that you can get an idea of how many visitors we get (just note that no where on the website does it say whether it’s a unique visitor or not).

Statbrain figures

I’m not too sure whether the results are accurate or not (1,060 visitors per day) but it clearly does give us a good overview of what our visitor and links stats are for popular search engines. Just as a comparison, we manually checked our Alexa ranking for our digital signage blog and it’s currently ranked 1,168,300 and the Digitalsignageblog.com traffic rank in other countries that they are listed on Alexa is United Kingdom 210,745, United States 898,627. We too are quite surprised that our UK ranking is 210,745 – not bad!! Our aim is to get below the 1,000,000 mark by the end of this year. Hopefully we will use these figures as a benchmark and gradually build up our online presence in the digital signage industry. As a result, we aim to gain more exposure for our potential advertisers.

Back in June 2008, we posted a blog entry of the top 10 search terms people are using which are landing to our digital signage blog from search engines. We have noticed that things haven’t changed much, most people are landing to our website with the most popular search terms.

Below is the updated list:

1.  digital signage blog

2. digital

3. digital signage

4. signage blog

5. digital signage blogs

6. blog digital signage

7. cellular digital signage

8. how does digital signage work

9. signage

10. what is rs232

The most noticeable difference is that more people are actually searching for blogs relating to digital signage. The great thing about our site is that its generally on the first page of google for the search term digital signage blog.

Now this is also a great opportunity to start another poll and we want to ask our readers whether their business has a blog website.

What is the competition about?

We know that all over the world, digital signage deployments are being successfully completed on a daily basis. Many of these businesses that are involved in digital signage do not have the opportunity to showcase their digital signage solution as they may not have the avenue or the means to do so.

Our competition will help these businesses to showcase their digital signage deployments to the rest of the digital signage community.

Basically, this competition is about showcasing YOUR digital signage case study.

The competition is not limited by the size of your business or the size of your rollout. So no matter how big or small your digital signage solution is, all businesses will have the opportunity to enter.

It has almost been a year since we officially launched the digital signage blog and during this period we had a significant growth in the online digital signage space. We have managed to get to the top of search engines for various search terms but more importantly our website is getting more popular (more visitor hits and page views). We also have other businesses linking and feeding our content which gives us a good indication that people find this website useful and because of these reasons we will be soon launching a new website.

What changes will you see?

The most significant change that you will see is the design of the website. It is clean, professional and has an easy to use interface. Our team at Advertise Me has customised and designed the new website.

We have improved the searching capabilities and we have reserved space for advertising and sponsorship.

When do we plan to launch the new website?

We intend to launch the new website in the next couple of days (that’s if everything goes well), so come back and visit the digital signage blog soon.

Once we have completed this new website, we will then update our digital signage portal so watch out for that as well.
