Hi, Freehostia recently suspended my web site for a day because it had too much traffic. Generally this would be good as it would indicate that a lot of people are visiting my site. However, Google Analytics shows a depressingly small number of visitors. I think the most likely cause is people viewing SVGZ files without looking at other pages. If so, this would be an issue as these site visitors are missing my advertising links etc. so this is denying me revenue. AFAIK, you can't put the code for Google Analytics on SVGZ files or rather it doesn't work (I've tried). My real question is if there's some way to monitor accessing of SVGZ files. You can put Google Analytics code on links to detect if people follow them but that's no use if people are just going straight to the SVGZ files, which I suspect is the case.
For that matter, is there a way to link to somebody else's SVGZ files (not copying the files but accessing them on the other person's site) on your website and preventing people who view them from clicking on their links (or perhaps changing their links)? This would explain the high traffic and low Google Analytics stats. Am I being overly paranoid? Yes I did try asking on the Google Analytics forum about using Google Analytics on SVGZ files but haven't had a reply. A lot of people are posting things to the effect that they think Google Analytics is underating their visitors so perhaps there's some other problem. I'm also a bit puzzeled that I seem to be getting a lot of visitors from Japan although the site is in English.
