[jira] [Commented] (SOLR-15189) Tracking downloads on new Solr site

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-15189?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17294877#comment-17294877 ] 

Jan Høydahl commented on SOLR-15189:
------------------------------------

Alexandre, would you like to own this JIRA? I.e. analyze some traffic. Try to find a way to get solid numbers for outbound links to {{https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/*}}, which is the closest we get to download numbers.

> On lucene.apache.org we use Google Analytics tracking

> I think the reason was so that we could estimate downloads from mirrors, by counting number of clicks on the links from download pages. But are anyone ever looking at or publishing those numbers?
> The ASF wants projects to stop using 3rd party tracking of users and instead ask INFRA for aggregated stats for the page. WDYT? Should we
>  # Remove trackers from both sites and rely on stats from infra
>  # Continue using Google analytics, but have someone actually publish numbers from it every month?
>  # Use some other way of counting downloads?
> h2. What do we get without a tracker?
> INFRA provides anonymous page view stats here [https://uls.apache.org/exports/lucene.apache.org.yaml] which gives some insight. But not downloads specifically. We see 12k visits to Solr downloads page last months, but we don't know how many of those clicked...
