Most Requested Pages - Help Card Start of Chapter

 This section identifies the most popular pages on the site. The number of views includes only the successful hits for the page itself. It does not include any hits for graphics, audio or video files. The percentage of total views is the percentage of hits for that page compared to all other page types.
Tip: The types of files included in this table can be configured using the File Types tab in the Options dialog box.
Tip: You can list all pages on the site by selecting a number of elements higher than the number of pages on the site.


 Most likely these pages are requested the most because of their content and design. Based on the theory that the most requested pages have effectively attracted visitors, you can use similar elements and approaches to improve the less popular pages. Consider the average view times to determine which content holds visitor's attention.

 Least Requested Pages

This section identifies the least popular pages on your Web site, and how often they were accessed.

Least Requested Pages - Help Card Start of Chapter

 This section identifies the least popular pages on your Web site. The number of views only includes the successful hits for the page itself. It does not include any hits for graphics. The percentage of total views is the percentage of hits for that page compared to all other pages.
Tip: The types of files included in this table can be configured using the File Types tab in the Options dialog box.
Tip: You can list all pages on the site by setting the number of elements to a number higher than the number of pages on the site.


 There are many reasons that these pages are requested the least. Consider the content and the navigational tools or descriptions available to guide visitors to them. How do these pages differ from those that are most requested? Do the average view times indicate visitors are not attracted long enough to convey your message? This table may indicate areas on your site that may need attention.

 Top Exit Pages

This section identifies the pages visitors were on when they left the site. The percentages refer to the total number of visitor sessions that started with a valid Document Type. If the session started on a document with a different type (such as a graphic or sound file), the file is not counted as an Exit Page, and the session is not counted in the total.

Top Exit Pages - Help Card Start of Chapter

 This section identifies the pages visitors were on when they left the site. These percentages refer to the total number of visitor sessions that started with a valid Document Type. If the session started on a document with a different type (such as a graphic or sound file), the file is not counted as an Exit Page, and the session is not counted in the total. Such sessions are often the product of other sites referencing a specific downloadable file or graphic for example on the site. In such cases, a session may have a single hit to a non-document type file, and will not be counted for the percentage calculations.

 Use this statistic to determine your visitors' satisfaction with their visits. Visitors may have left this page once they found what they were looking for, or they have lost interest or determined the content didn't apply, or for many other reasons. For example, if your top exit page is your home page, this may be an indication that you need a better approach.

 Single Access Pages

This section identifies the pages on the site that visitors access and exit without viewing any other page. The percentages refer to the total number of visitor sessions that started with a valid Document Type. If the session started on a document with a different type (such as a graphic or sound file), the file is not counted as a Single Access Page, and the session is not counted in the total

Single Access Pages - Help Card Start of Chapter

 This section identifies the pages on the site that visitors access and exit without viewing any other page. This demonstrates where visitors enter and leave immediately. These percentages refer to the total number of visitor sessions that started with a valid Document Type. If the session started on a document with a different type (such as a graphic or sound file), the file is not counted as a Single Access Page, and the session is not included in the total.

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