This web site became available for access at the beginning of September 1997.
To monitor site traffic we record page impressions and the number of unique user sessions each day.
The following table shows the daily average of visitors and page impressions per week. The figures have been averaged to account for weekend traffic, which, this being a business site, is inevitably lower than on weekdays.
