To get feedback about your documents from its readers, you need to make an effort. In your own interest, announce that you appreciate comments on stylistic as well as on technical issues, and make sure that readers know where to send them. When I'm about to behave like a competent human, I dislike being treated as cattle. Being addressed as a kid, a surfer, one of the boyz, or a geek. Separate evaluation from information.
People are polite to the software they are using.
Read the logfile. Most HTTP servers log every access to every document on that server with the time, the hostname of the client machine that requested the document, and the name of the document. This information is written to a logfile. If you understand HTTP response codes , and if these response codes are logged, the logfile also tells you if your documents contain links to nonexistent other documents on your system - the requests to fetch these documents will show up as errors in the logfile. Some server-maintainers make tools available that count logfile entries for a given page, and list them with number of accesses and hostnames.
