1997: Successfull first year of internet presence

We had far more success than other newcomers. But this did not stop us from finding out far more failures in our strategy, than the complacent competitors with much less success.

Total referers found in referer log files from all our own domains, and design and seminar customers hosted on our server. This only counts visitors coming from a link or a search engine. This does not count repeated visitors from bockmarks and visitors typing direct the URL (from newspaper or so)42422 20 visitors per pixel
