This blog post is divided into three parts.

1. Surveys and Statistics I Follow Regularly

From November to January, many companies share their data and statistics. Here are some survey results and year-in-review reports from various tech companies that I find interesting:

2. How I Collect Data
I used StatCounter on WordPress and Blogspot sites for many years. Later, I used Google Analytics on more than three sites. Currently, I use PostHog for web analytics and user session tracking, and Sentry for bug and error tracking.

3. My Data-Related Projects

Madrasa Student Data Analysis (2016-2019): I data-entered, calculated, and analyzed the results of over nine exams for more than 1,000 students over three years at a large madrasa. Previously, this was done manually with paper, pen, and calculator. I spontaneously created a comparative report showing student progress and decline between exams.
Ordhekdeen.com data analysis (February-March 2024): I analyzed data from OrdhekDeen.com, focusing on marriage trends. The findings indicate that the divorce rate among Alia and Qawmi brides is higher than that of brides from the general education stream. Notably, Qawmi brides have the highest divorce rate among all groups. This may be due to the fact that many Qawmi grooms marry Qawmi brides, so divorces in these marriages affect both groups’ statistics. The dataset also includes additional details such as height, financial status, and complexion.
