aWebVisit - Summary

(from 07/May/2000:08:56:27 to 04/Jun/2000:11:52:10)

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/2000:08:56:27
End date 04/Jun/2000:11:52:10
'Page' hits 543722
'Image' hits 738404
Hits from excluded hosts  
Skipped entries 837
Valid entries 1282126

The 'page' hits represent 42.4 % 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 more than enough for statistical analysis ! You may want to use smaller logfiles in the future to speed up processing...

It is worthwhile spending some time on this table. Notice for instance that of the 543722 page visits, 20.1 % are hit & runs. Or that of the 19339 different pages on your website, 32.2 % are used as an exit page at least once.

Based on the 66327 entries to your website, you can also see that 2.7 % of your visitors use page /video/mpeg to enter your site, and 2.9 % use page /~dan/midi/movie/friends.mid right before leaving your website. And page / is responsible for 4.2 % of the hit & runs.

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 19339 different pages were visited and 135660 different links were followed on your website, we can say that visitors usually follow 7.0 links per page. This means that visitors often use the available hyperlinks on your site.
