Usage has continued to go up steadily and has increased by 50% over the year. Even Christmas Day had 206 hits on the site. There are currently 50 word documents, 118 web pages and 400 images so my trusty camera has been very productive. We now have to pay £25 per year (it was £9.99) to host the site since we are no longer just a small web presence.
All the sections are looked at every month. This year streetscape has been the most popular section, whereas last year Clifton Rocks Railway topped the charts (this year it tends to be in second place, and the monthly photos of progress are very popular). The weekly planning lists for BS8 which we started to put up this year have also been very popular with an average of 30 hits each month for individual files.
Most people still find the CHIS site by searching for specific topics, committee members, streets, plaque information or pictures, and the topics looked for are as varied as ever and one can tell what is causing concern each month. This can lead to me putting up more information. I give a few examples of each below.
- streetscape items: old street lamps, gas light, door knocker, Victorian shop front, Victorian railing, Georgian balcony, cobbles, foot scapers, sedan chairs, shop display, advertising a- boards, funny signs
