Here is an overview of what we consider to be the key website statistics and information:
| Parameter name | Status | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Website meta title | The Bury Times - Keeping you up-to-date with the latest news, sport and video reports | Search engines recommend title length of around 50-60 characters. The length of this title is 85. |
| Meta description | Weekly newspaper covering local sport, weather, attractions, clubs and events. | To make sure all the meta description is visible in search results page, Google recommends length of up to 320 characters at the most. This description has exactly 78 characters. |
| Keywords | Bury News, Entertainment, what's on, films and events Bury Times days out, guides in Bury, Theatre reviews, horoscopes competitions, sport news, Houses for sale, jobs in Bury, Cars for sale in Bury | We did not expect meta keywords to be used. It's a worrying sign more than anything, really, as websites with meta keywords often tend to be spammy. |
| Load time | 0.6488 seconds on average | Website load speed is pretty fast. |
| Alexa global | 279 380, as last updated | According to Alexa, the website's popularity is not exactly high. Take this rank with a healthy pinch of salt. |
| Quantcast global | 221 799 | The website's rank is quite poor. As with Alexa, QUANTCAST is not always perfectly representative of a website's performance. |
| Total links on homepage | We found 375 links | This is a normal amount of links. |
| Number of backlinks | Around 2 | Backlinks is one of the key metrics for search engines. This website seems to have a very low number of backlinks, which means poorer rank in search results. |
| Page HTML size | 216KB | 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. |
| Website server | Server appears to be online. The IP address for the server is 62.233.114.118. | It's unfortunate, but despite our best attempts, we failed to gather enough data to provide a meaningful insight at this time. |
| Domain overview | Registered on 2003-11-10 00:00:00 | It's unfortunate, but despite our best attempts, we failed to gather enough data to provide a meaningful insight at this time. At this time, domain burytimes.co.uk is registered at Newsquest Oxford & Wiltshire Limited t/a Newsquest Digital Media |
What, all that information was not enough? You want... more? Right, then. You asked for it.
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.
| Parameter name | Status | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Relevant categories | Regional Europe United Kingdom England Manchester Bury |
The most obvious area of interest for the target audience are these categories. Most, if not all of them can be attributed to the website in question. |
| Related websites | bury.gov.uk cardwells.co.uk pearsonferrier.co.uk thisislancashire.co.uk entwistlegreen.co.uk |
These are the websites that fall into the same category as burytimes.co.uk, and so target the same audience and, likely, keywords. To a larger or smaller extent, all of them are competitors. |
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?
| Parameter name | Status | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Time spent on site | 3:15 | People are in no hurry to leave the website, great! |
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.
QUANTCAST - an advertising-related data processing company - mostly specializes in real-time audience analysis and measurements. In other words it, like Alexa, is basing its rankings on approximate traffic numbers. Currently, QUANTCAST has rated around 155 335 619 websites. Just like ALEXA, this is not a metric of huge importance, so don't base your SEO decisions on QUANTCAST rank, specifically. At best, it's a vague representation of how your website is doing in the grand scheme of things, but it does not take all that much context into account.
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.
Let's see what technical information we've managed to gather:
