Not sure if my job search activity counts - any advice?

I have been applying to about 17 jobs a week as a web developer, but I am unsure what my state wants in the log. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I also did a résumé workshop at the library.

I record the date, the company, the job title, how I applied and any contact name. It takes a minute each and it covered me when I was asked for proof.
