Here is an overview of what we consider to be the key website statistics and information:
| Parameter name | Status | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Website meta title | WikiTree: The Free Family Tree | Search engines recommend title length of around 50-60 characters. The length of this title is 30. |
| Meta description | A free, collaborative worldwide family tree project by a community of genealogists and their family members. | 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 108 characters. |
| Keywords | free family tree, family history, genealogy, wiki | 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 | 4.7666 seconds on average | Load speed is a concern and should be improved if and when possible. |
| Alexa global | 21 930, as last updated | The site is quite popular, according to Alexa. Take that for what it's worth, though. |
| Quantcast global | 5 529 | Judging by Quantcast rating, we can assume the website in question is very well known. |
| Total links on homepage | We found 95 links | This is a normal amount of links. |
| Number of backlinks | Around 832 | Such a decent amount of backlinks certainly ads to the ranking. |
| Page HTML size | 16.5KB | 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 23.20.242.143. | 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 | Society Genealogy Services Website Services |
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 | ancestry.com ancientfaces.com archives.com dpbolvw.net familyecho.com familysearch.org familytreemagazine.com genforum.genealogy.com geni.com gensoftreviews.com myheritage.com rootsmagic.com tribalpages.com uftree.com werelate.org |
These are the websites that fall into the same category as wikitree.com, and so target the same audience and, likely, keywords. To a larger or smaller extent, all of them are competitors. |
| Also of interest | calcudoku.org wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com nathankempnetwork.4truth.info news.komando.com jira.teachingbooks.net |
There is a good chance that the people interested in wikitree.com find something of use on these websites, too. |
Now this is rather important. With viruses and malware so dominant these days, website safety is among the key ratings. It's importance is such that a website marked as unsafe is more than likely not to rank at all, let alone on the first page. Now, some sources are more reliable than others, but we'll try to present you with all the information we've managed to gather, along with some relevant commentary.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly traffic | 2.31M | In the grand scheme of things, the website is not exactly a giant in terms of traffic. But the target audience should be taken into account, too. |
| Visitor delta | -13.79% | Lately, the website's been receiving less traffic. |
| Time spent on site | 12:36 | People are in no hurry to leave the website, great! |
| wikitree.com Traffic Bounce Rate | 51.58% | A decent amount of visitors seem to find valuable information on this website. |
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 4 198 162 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:
