Thanks to the statistical service provided by Google, it is becoming evident that this website has a worldwide appeal.  Search engines direct the users to this website, among others of course, and the dominant text enquiry is for "Blisworth", next comes various specific places, etc. The overview list is below and the actual statistics, sampled each month are given in the table below.

Blisworth in general      40 - 50% of search enquiries
Specific Places & Houses      10 - 20%
Tunnel     8 - 12%
Canal & boats esp. photographs   5 - 10%
People & Families    2 - 8%
Railways    very small, there are plenty of other sites!
Trades inc. mining and quarrying      very small

Occasionally, one particular subject is of considerable interest and one suspects that a college or school group may be doing a project, for example on "Iron Stone" mining.

International interest is dominated by people logging on from the UK and other English speaking countries, as one would expect:  Out of over 650 in a month, UK=590, USA=46, Brazil=5 to 20, Australia and NZ=10, Canada=4, Netherlands=6, Germany=4, India=2 and maybe 12 singly from other countries.  The countries data can be misleading, the entire Brazil activity was due to one man logging on regularly - so country monitoring is no longer pursued!
