Top Exit Pages - Help Card |
|
|
|
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. |
