CD Ripping all over the world

Just been looking at the website stats Google collates for us, some great detail and a few odd ball insights into what goes on in the world of the web.

I know we’ve had CD ripping clients in mainland Europe. We have ripped CDs for clients in Ireland, Germany, Switzerland and France plus a few others. However it seems from Google that we have potential CD ripping clients in Indonesia, India, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Brazil.

It seems we have interest in some of the technical terms used on this site, the most popular being terms relating to compression in music and CD bitrates. This has provoked interest in a raft of countries that my lapses in geographic knowledge just think of as the former Soviet Union, along with Chile and Mexico.

When I registered our service on the web I understood that having a .com rather than a .co.uk or .eu would tip interest more towards the USA and sure, we have a fair number of visitors from North America. Of course we have most hits from the UK but USA is out ranked by Germany comparing each country. If you add the smaller European nations they out hit the States, as do the combined -stan nations (with a chunk of help from Saudi Arabia).

If you’re reading this from any of those more remote nations, yes, we’d be happy to rip your CDs for you. I’d be thrilled to get our first client from Uruguay or from the Philipines.
