Re: Measuring pointers/referrals to pi.berkeley.com ?



Well ...

As for anything hitting / landing on
http[s]://[www.]berkeleylug.com/Pi.BerkeleyLUG/ etc.
That would generally all be in the (Apache) web server logs.

As to http[s]://[www.]pi.berkelug.com/
... that depends where the DNS goes to and what it is upon.
At present it's got active fallback that goes to
the [www.]berkeleylug.com. IPs ... and webserver there just 302
redirects to https://berkeleylug.com/Pi.BerkeleyLUG/
So, anyway, so long as it's on that host and web server,
that's also logged in those same logs.

Maybe I ought install something that reports some stats from
the Apache log data?

Want to suggest suitable (Debian stable) package?

I did also, long ago, tweak the default log rotation for the
Apache log data ... so generally have data going back about
60 weeks - so should generally have a bit over a year of
data - helps to give some fair bit of history/context,
and for any other relevant logging purposes.  Yet older
logs would also exist on backups that are done periodically.

Is there a way or are there ways to possibly track and/or measure any or
all pointers/referrals and redirects
*from* other links a.k.a. URLs *to* the canonical landing page of
http[s]://[www.]pi.berkeleylug.com/ ??
<http://pi.berkeleylug.com/>

See below the longer quote as well....

Pi.BerkeleyLUG is a Special Interest Group (SIG) of BerkeleyLUG.
And relevant redirects to canonical landing page (and with most of

http[s]://[www.]pi.berkeleylug.com/ (302 - excepting Pi SIG taking it
   elsewhere)
http[s]://[www.]berkeleylug.com/pi[[-.]berkeley[lug]][/]
<http://berkeleylug.com/pi%5B%5B-.%5Dberkeley%5Blug%5D%5D%5B/%5D> (301)
} --> https://BerkeleyLUG.com/Pi.BerkeleyLUG/
... even virtual meet URLs for the SIG could likewise
where/as feasible use URLs ending in /Pi.BerkeleyLUG[/]

But most notably at least "in the meantime" (and if it ever does fully
split off - for
relevant pointers/referrals - notably since it (essentially?) started
within BerkeleyLUG), would be good to have some relevant location(s)
on BerkeleyLUG about or referring/pointing to "Berkeley Pi".
So, along those lines, I was thinking, already have the
https://berkeleylug.com/ web site, it would be good to create a page on
there for "Berkeley Pi".  I/we might have to poke at the existing
(WordPress) site a bit on naming conventions and such,
but we might want to create a page such as:
https://berkeleylug.com/BerkeleyPi
<https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fberkeleylug.com%2FBerkeleyPi&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNE-RWDGlnSrxoGVubsYjuXGrJNExw>
or
https://berkeleylug.com/pi.berkeleylug or
https://berkeleylug.com/Pi or the like.
Not sure about case sensitivity (or not) on such with WordPress,
but some added web server redirects could ensure various possible
alternatives/variations all would get (presumably 301) redirected to
some suitable "Berkeley Pi" landing page, such as:
https://berkeleylug.com/BerkeleyPi or
https://berkeleylug.com/pi.berkeleylug
If/once <https://berkeleylug.com/pi.berkeleylugIf/once> we agreed upon
something like that, and set up such a page,
then also, the relevant WordPress editors(+) (there are at least a few
or so of us thus far, we can always add more) could also maintain such
page.  That would also give "Berkeley Pi" a consistent canonical
web presence/page/URL to refer to, pass along to folks, etc.
Also, I might suggest "pi.berkeleylug" - or alternatively "BerkeleyPi"

over "Berkeley Pi".



Similarly, for Michael P and Rick M respectively, Is there a way or are
there ways
to possibly track and/or measure any or all all pointers/referrals and
redirects from
other URLs to https://www.balug.org and http://linuxmafia.com respectively??
E.g., http[s]://balug.net, http://linuxmafia.org, http://linuxmafia.net,
...etcetera?
