Thanks, Jane --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 24 Hour Museum sector web stats survey 2004 Last year, the 24 Hour Museum undertook its second survey of web statistics for UK cultural websites. The final versions of this survey is available as a downloadable pdf from our website: 2003: http://www.24hourmuseum.org.uk/etc/formuseums/TXT21448_gfx_en.html 2002: http://www.24hourmuseum.org.uk/etc/formuseums/TXT17762_gfx_en.html The surveys make very interesting reading and have generated a lot of interest from the sector. Very little information of this type is being collected and shared and many people have requested from us details about how to measure the success of their websites and online resources. The 24 Hour Museum have decided to carry out another survey this year, looking at the same six months as in 2003, in order to get comparable results. The performance indicators are drawn from the NOF guidelines plus one extra one we have added. If you keep records of your website statistics, we would extremely grateful if you would help us by taking the time to complete the short questionnaire at the bottom of this email and return it to us by 30 September. We are hoping to collate and compare results from a wide variety of museums and galleries - large and small, regional and national. We would like to share our findings within the Museums & Galleries sector, but if you would prefer us to keep your information confidential, we will of course keep your response anonymous. The final survey will be circulated to all those who took part, and published on the 24 Hour Museum website. Please get in touch if you have any questions. Thanks very much for your help, we look forward to hearing from you. ____________________________________________________________________________ 24 Hour Museum Sector Web Statistics Survey: 1st January to 30th June 2004 Name of your Institution: URL: Date site launched: Please complete the five categories below with figures for the six months of 1st January to 30th June 2004 wherever possible.
