TSA Complaints - The First Day
As of this around 9:30 PM CST, here are the stats from Google Analytics:
- 3,550+ uniques
- 18,000+ pageviews
- Less than 40% bounce rate (should go down once more interactive features are added, I’d imagine)
- 30 usable contributions to the site thus far
- ~1% interaction rate. Virginia is for lovers, and the web is for voyuers.
- Major referers are:
I was expecting the opposite. While I’m glad to see that a majority of people stuck around to check out the site, I plan on developing a few more features to attract return visitors. See below for that. But first:
A BIG “Thank You” to everyone that has emailed me suggestions, comments, bug reports (incorrect linking in the RSS feeds based on an older version of the site, and a problem with San Antonio), and words of encouragement!
And, of course, a REALLY BIG “Thank You” to everyone that has submitted (usable) content so far
Heres the rundown of what I’ll be adding soon to make this site even more interactive and up-front with the information:
- Keyword extraction courtesy of the Yahoo! Keyword Extraction API as a form of automatic tagging
- Potentially user tagging
- Voting on quality of articles
Contrary to what I thought out loud about earlier, I don’t think complaint comments will be happening. Yet.
If you’d like to cover TSA Complaints, I’d be much appreciative. I’m planning on sending out a small batch of press releases to more than a few sensible outlets, but this site needs your contributions and complaints to be at all useful in terms of its greater goal: statistical mining to find what’s going wrong.
Feel free to email me at: tsa -dot- complaints -at- gmail -dot- com
Again, thanks to everyone making this possible. I can’t wait to see where the site goes from here.
