Here is an overview of what we consider to be the key website statistics and information:
| Parameter name | Status | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Website meta title | Valley Cartage - Excellence in Regional, National and International LTL & Volume Shipping Since 1935 | Wisconsin Based Shipping, Logistics and Supply Chain Management | Search engines recommend title length of around 50-60 characters. The length of this title is 166. |
| Meta description | Trucking and storage company servicing the St. Croix Valley. | 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 60 characters. |
| Keywords | ltl, logistics, midwest ltl, mn ltl, wi ltl, nd ltl, supply chain, pool distribution, family owned & operated, warehousing, white glove service, critical trucking services, brokerage, ltl trucking, truckload and volume, supply chain logistics, hazardous materials & tsa certified drivers, ltl carrier of the year award, guaranteed time-definite delivery options, freezable protection, expedited, tl & volume, ltl trucking, motor carrier, 3pl, regional trucking, regional motor carrier, hot shot delivery, next day ltl, next day service, vc, | 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 | 2.077 seconds on average | Load speed is a concern and should be improved if and when possible. |
| Alexa global | 766 849, 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 | 95 853 | The site is well known, judging by QUANTCAST rank. |
| Total links on homepage | We found 75 links | This is a normal amount of links. |
| Number of backlinks | Around 21 | 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 | 26.7KB | How do we put this... improvement is quite necessary. Load speed is a very important factor in so many ways! |
| Website server | Server appears to be online. The IP address for the server is 173.201.246.62. | It's unfortunate, but despite our best attempts, we failed to gather enough data to provide a meaningful insight at this time. |
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 | Business Transportation and Logistics Distribution and Logistics |
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 | valleymanagementgroup.com daviscartage.com lykescartage.com porrecafreight.com calcartage.com |
These are the websites that fall into the same category as valleycartage.com, 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 | 3:55 | 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 57 276 136 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:
