1) In December 2000, our server had not been accessible for three days because of provider problems.

2) Because of provider problems, between April 4 and 25 qualitative-research.net only was accessible at a provisional URL. So the server statistics for April 2001 are limited to April 1-3 and 26-30.

3) Requests (hits) are accesses to any of the documents (HTML files, images, etc.). How problematic it would be if one only looked at the mere number of requests is quite obvious when one considers the number of requests between January and February 2003: At the end of January, the qualitative-research.net site was re-launched, and each HTML file uses a number of image files, which drastically increased the number of requests (de facto there had only been a slight increase in February e.g. for HTML and PDF files if one keeps in mind that February had only 28 days). Therefore requests must be accompanied by additional information: page impressions are accesses to HTML documents; download means accesses to PDF files; hosts (visitors) are not persons but accesses identified by an IP address (=Internet Protocol address; the location of a particular connection to the Internet) within a limited period of time (e.g. all requests that are separated by no more than a 30-minute interval). So if two people use the same computer or browser in such a time period, they will be considered as a single visitor; if the same person revisits the site another day, s(he) will be counted as two visitors.
