aWebVisit - Summary

(from 29/Feb/2000:21:36:01 to 04/Jun/2000:17:15:47)

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 29/Feb/2000:21:36:01
End date 04/Jun/2000:17:15:47
'Page' hits 3120
'Image' hits 20523
Hits from excluded hosts  
Skipped entries 1
Valid entries 23643

The 'page' hits represent 13.2 % of all valid hits on your website. The 'image' hits are excluded as specified in the current configuration of aWebVisit. You may want to include some of the 'images' in a next run...

This is probably a good number for statistical analysis : enough samples to be useful, but small enough to be processed quickly...

Total 3120 100.0   39 100.0   1 80.0 702 22.5 /

It is worthwhile spending some time on this table. Notice for instance that of the 3120 page visits, 25.2 % are hit & runs. Or that of the 39 different pages on your website, 94.9 % are used as an exit page at least once.

Based on the 492 entries to your website, you can also see that 71.7 % of your visitors use page / to enter your site, and 19.3 % use page /jaguest.html right before leaving your website. And the same entry page is also responsible for 37.7 % of the hit & runs.

Total 1838 100.0   417 100.0   1 4.4 80 4.4 / /jaguest.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 39 different pages were visited and 417 different links were followed on your website, we can say that visitors usually follow 10.7 links per page. This means that visitors often use the available hyperlinks on your site.
