Summary of Activity by Time Increment - Help Card Start of Chapter

Hits - Number of hits to your site during the specified time interval. 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.

Bytes - Number of bytes of data transferred from your server to your visitors during the specified time interval.

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

Time Interval - A one-year report displays monthly time increments. A one-month report displays daily time increments. And a daily report displays hourly time increments.

Visits - Number of visitors to your site during the specified time interval. 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.



Periods of less activity should be considered for maintenance and content improvement.
