aWebVisit - Summary

(from 07/May/2000:12:32:23 to 04/Jun/2000:07:49:42)

1. Introduction

aWebVisit extracts visitor information from WWW logfiles. For each visit, your web pages are then classified as an entry, transit, exit and/or hit&run page. The links followed during the visit to your website are classified as incoming, internal, outgoing and/or in&out links. If you are not familiar with these concepts, you will find more detailed explanations in the Help file.

The flow of visitors through your website can be summarised as follows :

Entry Transit Exit Hit&Run --> Entry --> Entry Incoming Incoming Internal Internal Outgoing Outgoing In&Out In&Out Exit --> Exit --> --> Hit&Run --> Hit&Run

Some global web maps are available. Try using aWebVisit-Map for individual page maps...

2. Logfile Information

Start date 07/May/2000:12:32:23

'Page' hits 813
'Image' hits 739
Hits from excluded hosts  
Skipped entries 0
Valid entries 1552

The 'page' hits represent 52.4 % of all valid hits on your website. The 'image' hits are excluded as specified in the current configuration of aWebVisit. You do not need to include or exclude other types of pages for the moment...

This is probably not a large enough sample for statistical analysis. Please use logfiles covering a longer period of time...

Total 813 100.0   40 100.0   1 20.3 304 37.4 /

It is worthwhile spending some time on this table. Notice for instance that of the 813 page visits, 26.9 % are hit & runs. Or that of the 40 different pages on your website, 32.5 % are used as an exit page at least once.

Based on the 73 entries to your website, you can also see that 64.4 % of your visitors use page / to enter your site, and 26.0 % use page /team.html right before leaving your website. And the same entry page is also responsible for 46.6 % of the hit & runs.

In&Out 28 13.4   17 25.4   1 1.6 5 17.9 / /team.html
Total 209 100.0   67 100.0   1 3.1 17 8.1 /service.html /disarm.html

Interpretation of this table is similar to the one above. Note that redirects by your web server will also appear as links, and that frames will generate links between the main frame and its children.

Since 40 different pages were visited and 67 different links were followed on your website, we can say that visitors usually follow 1.7 links per page. This means that you may not have enough hyperlinks on your site, or that they are hardly ever used.

6. Status Information

The 'usual' status codes, i.e. 200 (Okay) and 304 (Not modified), represent 80.6 % of all hits.
