AWStats Reports of Internet Activity
for AllAmericanWineries.com ™

    There are three secrets to your winery's or vineyard's success on the Internet:  eyeballs, eyeballs and eyeballs.  Knowing the quantity and types of visitors to my Internet site and how long they stay is crucial to determining the value of your Subscribed Enhanced Listing here.  All American Wineries ™  is proud of our exponential growth, with steadily increasing hit rates, page views, visitor sessions, and unique visitor counts since our January 2001 inception.
    We consistently receive traffic from crucial search engines and web site indices, including About.com, AllTheWeb, AltaVista, AOL, Ask, AskJeeves, AT&T Search, Baidu, Bing, DirectHit, DogPile, EuroSeek, Excite, Fireball, Goo, Google, GoTo, HotBot, LookSmart, Lycos, MegaSpider, Metacrawler, MicroSoftNetwork, MyWebSearch, Netscape, Northern Light, ScrubTheWeb, Voila, Windows Live, and Yahoo.
    We have  received favorable write-ups on numerous wine review sites, including two reviews and recommendations in a 30 month period on Robin Garr's "Wine Lover's Page," in addition to review, articles and references in newspapers (USA Today, the Washington Post and the Seattle Times being among the largest circulation) as well as wine and winery magazines, grape grower association newsletters and other specialty publications.  We were an invited guest speaker on "Wineries and the Internet" at the North Carolina Winegrowers Association annual meeting, as well as speaking before Chambers of Commerce and business associations about the cross-marketing of wineries and tourism.
    We are actively are pursuing reviews and write-ups from journalists in the travel and wine section of newspapers across the country, and are writing guest columns in selected print media.  In early July, 2001, we submitted this site as a Top 100 Wine Site candidate with chef2chef.net, and within four years, we moved from a new listing at #100, then into the top 10, and in June 2005 we were inducted into the Wine Site Hall of Fame.

      DEMOGRAPHICS:  Most important to your winery, however, is that visitors are coming here, staying here, and returning here.

    While most visitors originate from .com and .net addresses, we continue to see just under 10% of our traffic originating from .org, .edu, .gov and .mil sites (on their lunch hour or work breaks, of course).  Also, beginning in 2008, we have seen traffic to our site from mobile device operating systems, including Symbian.
