General Statistics - Help Card Start of Chapter

Average Hits per Day - Number of successful hits divided by the total number of days in the log.

Average Page Views per Day - Number of page views divided by the total number of days in the log.

Average Page Views per Unique Visitor - Number of page views divided by the total number of unique visitors.

Average Visits per Day - Number of visits divided by the total number of days in the log.

Average Visit Length - Average of non-zero length visits in the log.

Document Views - Number of hits to pages that are considered documents--not dynamic pages or forms--as defined by the system administrator.

Hit - A single action on the Web server as it appears in the log file. A visitor downloading a single file is logged as a single hit, while a visitor requesting a Web page including two images registers as three hits on the server; one hit is the request for the .html page, and two additional hits are requests for the downloaded image files. While the volume of hits is an indicator of Web server traffic, it is not an accurate reflection of how many pages are being looked at.

Hits: Entire Site (Successful) - Number of hits that had a "success" status code.

Hits: Home Page - Number of times the home page (as defined in the profile) was viewed.

International Visits - Percentage of visitors defined as "international" in Domain Options.

Home Page Hits - Number of times your home page was visited.

Median Visit Length - Median of non-zero length visits in the log. Half the visit lengths are longer than the median, and half are shorter. This number is often closer to the "typical" visit length than the average visit length. Numbers that are wildly atypical can skew the average, but will not skew the median so much.

Page - Any document, dynamic page, or form. Documents are user-defined in Options, but typically include all static content, such as complete html pages. Dynamic pages are created with variables and do not exist anywhere in a static form. Forms are scripted pages which get information from a visitor and pass it back to the server.

Page Views - Hits to files designated as pages. Supporting graphics and other non-page files are not counted.

Page Views: Document Views - Hits to pages that are defined as documents. This entry excludes hits to dynamic pages and forms.

Unique Visitors- Individuals who visited your site during the report period. If someone visits more than once, they are counted only the first time they visit.

Visits - Number of times a visitor came to your site. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.

Visits from Spiders - Number of visits from any site classified as a spider.

Visits from Your Country - Percentage of visits from your country. The name of your country and the country code are shown. Your system administrator configures the selection for your country.

Visits of Unknown Origin - Percentage of visitors from an origin that could not be determined.

Visits Referred by Search Engines - Number of visits that began with a referral from any site classified as a search engine.

Visitors Who Visited More Than Once - Number of individual visitors who appear more than once in the log file. Individuals can be tracked by IP addresses, domain names, and cookies. Cookies provide the most accurate count.

Visitors Who Visited Once - Number of individual visitors who appear only once in the log file. Individuals can be tracked by IP addresses, domain names, and cookies. Cookies provide the most accurate count.


The General Statistics page provides an overview of your Web site's performance and visitor behavior and can help you determine which chapters will be most valuable to you.

Log records for the last second in the log file are not included in this analysis. There is no way to tell if information for that second is complete until the log records following it become available. The data for the last second will be included when the next analysis is run and additional data is available.

Top Content Groups - Help Card Start of Chapter

Content Group - A defined group of Web pages with specific things in common, such as the same types of products, services, or information.

Hit - Number of hits for the specified content group. A hit is a single action on the Web server as it appears in the log file. A visitor downloading a single file is logged as a single hit, while a visitor requesting a Web page including two images registers as three hits on the server; one hit is the request for the .html page, and two additional hits are requests for the downloaded image files. While the volume of hits is an indicator of Web server traffic, it is not an accurate reflection of how many pages are being looked at.

Visits - Number of times a visitor came to at least one page in the specified content group. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.

% - Percentage of hits included in the specified content group.



You can use this information to learn which types of information are most popular. Do most visitors come for research? Services? Product reviews?

Top Pages - Help Card Start of Chapter

Average Time Viewed - Average length of time the specified page was viewed.

Pages - Specific page being analyzed. If the page has a formal title, you will see the title of the page and the URL. Otherwise, you will only see the URL.

Subtotal - Sum of all data rows for each listed page.

Total - Sum of the subtotal and all data that does not appear on the page.

Views - Number of times the specified page was viewed by a visitor. Each page can be viewed more than once by the same visitor, and each view is counted. If you want to ignore repeated page views by the same visitor, look in the Visits column.

Visits - Number of visits that include a view of the specified page. Individual visitors are counted each time they come to the Web site, and are counted only once per visit no matter how many pages they look at. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted.

% - Percentage of visitors who viewed the specified page.



Pages with good content and design are more likely to attract visitors and be revisited. Less popular pages on a site can be made more appealing by improving the content or incorporating design elements similar to that on the more important pages. Always remember that people are far more interested in content than in design, and average view times can help determine which content is most important to your visitors.

Top Entry Pages - Help Card Start of Chapter

Entry Page - The first page a visitor sees when entering your Web site. To qualify as an entry page the visit must start with a valid page type. If a session starts at a file with a different type (such as a graphic or sound file), the file does not count as an entry page, and the session is not included in the total. Such sessions are often the result of other sites referencing a specific downloadable file or graphic on your site. In these cases, a session may have a single hit to a non-page file, and will not be counted. Also, Web servers do not always log hits in perfect chronological order. For example, a hit to a GIF file can appear in the log before the hit to the HTML page that refers to this GIF.

Page - Specific page being analyzed. If the page has a formal title, you will see the title of the page and the URL. Otherwise, you will only see the URL.

Visits - Number of times the specified page was the entry page. Individual visitors are counted each time they come to the Web site. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.

% - Percentage of times this page was the entry page compared with other entry pages.



This information can indicate how you might want to optimize the architecture of your Web site based on where your visitors are entering. It can also help you determine which external links are most effective. Consider updating meta-tags and links.

File - Refers to the first file loaded to a visitor's browser. Contrast this with the first page loaded to a visitor's browser, displayed on the Top Entry Pages page. The entry page for some visitors is not a formally defined page (such as a graphic or sound file), so the information in this table and graph include all first hits regardless if the hit was on a formal page or not.

Visits - Number of visitors whose first hit was the specified file.

% - Refers to the total numbers of visits.



Consider what catches the attention of visitors most quickly and effectively.

Top Exit Pages - Help Card Start of Chapter

Exit Page - The last page a visitor views before leaving your Web site. To qualify as an exit page the visit must end with a valid page type. If a session ends on a page with a different type (such as a graphic or sound file), the file does not count as an exit page, and the session is not included in the total. Such sessions are often the result of other sites referencing a specific downloadable file or graphic on your site. In these cases, a session may have a single hit to a non-page file, and will not be counted.

Pages - Specific page being analyzed. If the page has a formal title, you will see the title of the page as well as the URL. Otherwise, you will only see the URL.

Visits - Number of times the specified page was the exit page. Individual visitors are counted each time they come to the Web site. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.

% - Percentage of times this page was the exit page compared with other exit pages.



You can use this information to determine your visitors' satisfaction with their visits. Visitors may have left after viewing a specific page because they found what they were looking for, lost interest, determined the content didn't apply to them, or for many other reasons. If your top exit page is your home page, this may be an indication that you are alienating a lot of first-time visitors.

Single Access Pages - Help Card Start of Chapter

Single Access Page - A page on your Web site that visitors open, then exit from, without viewing any other page. To qualify the visit must be to a page that is a valid page type. If the visit is to a file of a different type (such as a graphic or sound file), the file does not count as a single access page, and the visit is not included in the total. Such visits are often the result of other sites referencing a specific downloadable file or graphic on your site. In these cases, a visit may be a single hit to a non-page file, and will not be counted.

Pages - Specific page being analyzed. If the page has a formal title, you will see the title of the page as well as the URL. Otherwise, you will see only the URL.

Visits - Number of times the specified page was a single access page. Individual visitors are counted each time they come to the Web site. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.

% - Percentage of times this page was a single access page compared with other single access pages.



This information can be helpful when considering the design of the site with respect to the kind of visitors you attract. Consider how well these pages convey your message. Do they need improvement to extend visits, or is it possible that are you attracting the wrong visitors?

Top Directories - Help Card Start of Chapter

Hits - Number of hits to files within the specified directory. A hit is a single action on the Web server as it appears in the log file. A visitor downloading a single file is logged as a single hit, while a visitor requesting a Web page including two images registers as three hits on the server; one hit is the request for the .html page, and two additional hits are requests for the downloaded image files. While the volume of hits is an indicator of Web server traffic, it is not an accurate reflection of how many pages are being looked at.

Non-cached Bytes - Number of non-cached bytes of data transferred.

Non-cached % - Percentage of hits that were not already in the visitor's browser cache.

Path to Directory - The full URL path to the directory being analyzed.

Visits - Number of visits to pages within the specified directory. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.

% of Total Hits - Percentage of hits to the specified directory out of hits to all directories.

New Visitors - Visitors who didn't have a cookie on their first hit, but had one on later hits.

Number of Visits - Number of visitors that fit into the specified visitor category. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.

Returning Visitors - Visitors who already had a cookie when they came to your site.

Unknown - Visitors can be listed as "Unknown" for a few different reasons. Cookies may not be tracked in the log file. The report profile may not recognize the visitor's cookie due to the cookie configuration created in the user interface. Or, the visitor may have cookies turned off on their computer.

% - Percentage of visitors who fit into the specified visitor category.



By tracking the ratio between new and returning visitors over a period of time, you can determine if your site is attracting enough repeat visitors.

Note: If the data shows that all visitors in the Unknown category, it is likely that the application has not been configured to perform this analysis.

Top Geographic Regions - Help Card Start of Chapter

Geographic Regions - The geographic part of the world where visitors to your web site are located. Two methods exist for identifying the location of a visitor:

    WebTrends GeoTrends Database - If GeoTrends is enabled for this profile, the region is determined by searching for a visitor's IP address in this database.

    Domain Name - The region can be determined by the domain name. The domain name can be identified if it was logged by the web server or, if it is defined in the Internet Domain Name System, then it may be found using DNS resolution based on the IP address.

Region Not Found - Using GeoTrends, this entry appears when an IP address can not be found in the GeoTrends database.

Region Unspecified - This entry appears when a country code could not be found in region.ini, or when neither GeoTrends nor DNS are enabled, or when DNS is enabled without GeoTrends and a visitor's domain name could not be found.

Visits - Number of visits from the specified geographic region. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.

Most Active Countries - Help Card Start of Chapter

Countries - Two methods exist for identifying the location of each visitor:

    WebTrends GeoTrends Database - If GeoTrends is turned on for this profile, the location is determined by looking up the visitor's IP address in this database.

    Domain Name - The location can be determined by the domain name. The domain name can be identified if it was logged by the web server or, if it is defined in the Internet Domain Name System then it may be found using DNS resolution.

Visits - Number of visits from the specified country. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.


This information can help you meet the needs of your target audience as well as discover new audiences. Consider how you can make the content comprehensive and relevant to an international audience.

Most Active Organizations - Help Card Start of Chapter

Hits - Number of hits to your site from the specified organization. A hit refers to a single action on the Web server as it appears in the log file. A visitor downloading a single file is logged as a single hit, while a visitor requesting a Web page including two images registers as three hits on the server; one hit is the request for the .html page, and the two additional hits are requests for the downloaded image files. While the volume of hits is an indicator of Web server traffic, it is not an accurate reflection of how many pages are being looked at.

Organizations - If GeoTrends is enabled, the name of the company or organization is found by looking up the visitor's IP address in the GeoTrends databse. If DNS domain name resolution is enabled and the domain name for this IP address is found, the domain name will be shown. If neither GeoTrends nor DNS resolution is enabled, only IP addresses are shown.

Subtotal - Sum of all data rows for each listed organization.

Total - Sum of the subtotal and all data that does not appear on the page.

Visits - Number of visits to your site from the specified organization. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.

% - Percentage of total hits from a visitor inside the specified organization.


Determine how your Web site can be improved according to how businesses use your site. Consider how your product can be made more attractive to organizations that have shown interest.

Top-Level Domain Types - Help Card Start of Chapter

Hits - Number of hits from a visitor with the specified top-level domain type. A hit is a single action on the Web server as it appears in the log file. A visitor downloading a single file is logged as a single hit, while a visitor requesting a Web page including two images registers as three hits on the server; one hit is the request for the .html page, and two additional hits are requests for the downloaded image files. While the volume of hits is an indicator of Web server traffic, it is not an accurate reflection of how many pages are being looked at.

Top-Level Domain Type - The type of organization, determined by the top-level domain (the three-digit suffix of the URL). Possible suffixes and types include the following:

.com = Commercial
.edu = Educational
.int = International
.gov = Government
.mil = Military
.net = Network
.org = Organization

Visits - Number of visits to your site from the specified type. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted. The default idle-time limit is thirty minutes.

% - Percentage of total hits from someone from the specified organization type. The percentages refer to the total number of hits for which the organization type can be determined. Some IP addresses cannot be resolved to a domain, and therefore the organization type cannot be determined. This information can be displayed only if DNS resolution is enabled.


Consider what types of organizations are most interested in your site and how you can attract other types.
