Visitor geographic profile in past 7 weeks

Why chose these 7 weeks (from Apr 6 to May 23)? I started google analytics in the second week of April.

China ranked low because of the Great Fire Wall (Also because I chose to write this in English. I write better in Chinese but it is just too hard to type Chinese in an English Window PC). I suppose quite some of the US originated traffic may represent proxy view from China. (Some in China may be viewing my mirror site but I suspect the popularity of it)
  • An estimate of mainland China visitors can be done by comparing language system of the operating system. Because virtually only users inside China use simplified Chinese OS.
  • Simplified Chinese/Traditional Chinese(HK&TW)=64%. so Mainland originated visits is around (10.1+3.7)x64%=8.8%. This will be the lower bound as quite some visitors (esp ex-pats) use English OS in China
  • If I use Japan as a reference, simplified Chinese/Japanese=164%. So lower bound of mainland visits is 1.64x3.7%=6.1%. Using Korea as reference on gets 7.0%. I guess this gives us some flavor of China originated traffic.
Returning visitors = 23.33% (anyoneone who have visited at least twice since Apr 6 is defined as a returning visitors)
