Website Performance – The Geeky Part

What, all that information was not enough? You want... more? Right, then. You asked for it.

basf.co.za In Detail

As we've mentioned before, traffic is not a key metric. However, the target audience does say a lot about what's been done to optimize the website, as well as what should be done going forwards. Let's see if we have any useful information here.

basf.co.za Visitor Information

Absolute accuracy is accessible only by the webmasters. If you keep that in mind, perhaps you will find out approximate numbers of some use.
Where appropriate, we'll add an insight, but the numbers themselves speak clearly enough, eh?

Website load speed analysis

• The homepage takes approximately 0.3385 seconds to load. Load speed (and overall responsiveness) is such an important factor for both search engines and user experience, would you not agree? With that in mind, this is a very good result.
• The HTML of the website weighs in at around 60.9 kilobytes. We don't think 60.9 KBs is something to worry about.
• There are at least 7 images on the homepage of this website. We are glad to say that such an amount should not impact the load speed of the website. Great result!
• We've counted at least 49 server requests before the homepage was fully loaded. Every server request made increases the load time of a website. Thankfully, this is a pleasingly low amount.

Alexa ranking in-depth

With over 4 million websites indexed (which can seem as a lot, or very little, depending on your point of view), Alexa is perhaps the oldest and certainly the best known ranking system, deservedly or not. The Alexa Global and Local ranks of a website are based on an approximate amount of visitors a given website receives. The more visitors, the higher the rank. The Alexa rank, be it Local or Global, should be taken with a pinch of salt. After all, visitor count is by far not the simple measure of a website's success it's made out to be. For example, a gardening website is never going to be as popular as a movie review website. It does not mean it's not popular within it's niche.

• basf.co.za takes up 814 784 place globally, according to Alexa. We made sure to update this information on 2015-10-13.
• Compare the current rank to all-time best of 621 096, which this website enjoyed on 2015-09-16.
• Over the last three months, the position has changed by -235257.
• On the other end of the scale, the worst rank ever was 991 191, rated on 2014-09-30. Compare that to the current rank to see a marked improvement, even if of debatable importance.
• Given all the numbers, the average Global rank is at 822 749.
• When compared to South Africa websites, basf.co.za ranks in 41 685 place.

Detailed Host Server Information

Similarly to how a hard drive or a modern SSD device holds your files, a server holds all the files the website needs to operate. To load a webpage, your browser needs to contact the said server and request files - strings of code that make up the website into what it is, including images, text and database entries. Each physical server has a unique IP address that is used by the browser to contact it.

• The website's server IP address is 174.35.71.124.
• Server appears to be online.
