Look through the key statistics analysis before diving in deeper into our report:
| Parameter | Current result | Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| Meta title | BigFuture - Get Ready for College - College Planning, Financial Aid, Educator Resources | As meta title is a ranking factor, it's quite important to stick to search engine recommended length of aroun 50-60 characters. This website's meta title is 87 characters long. |
| Description | Choosing a college is a big and exciting decision. Explore your interests and take the time to find a college that will put you on a path to a bright future. | This meta description is 157 characters in length. Google suggests up to 320 characters at the very most to make sure the whole meta description is visible in search results page. |
| <meta> keywords | college board, college, search, campuses, majors, careers, scholarships,sites,college,planning,home,navigation,homepage | Strangely enough, meta keywords still seem to be used. We would not go down that road unless very carefully - meta keywords have not been known as a positive ranking factor for a while now. |
| Site speed | Around 0.7066 seconds | The website load speed is rather good. |
| Links on homepage | Around 8 links | This looks... a little suspicious, to be honest. |
| HTML size | 18.4KB | A very good result, this. Remember, search engines such as Google place a lot of their website ratings on its speed. |
| Website host server overview | Server status: online. Server IP address for this website is 23.43.124.206. | We apologize, but for some reason we were unable to gather enough data to provide a detailed insight at this time. |
If the basic information we presented you with above is not enough, get ready to dive in much deeper!
Now that the numbers are taken care of, we can go deeper and try to analyse the website from a user's perspective. More specifically, let's see if we can identify the target audience as well as a few related websites and categories.
| Parameter | Current result | Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| Related categories | Career and Education > Universities and Collegesvuuxfvxbaebdbdw Career and Education > Education Career and Education > Jobs and Employment Arts and Entertainment > TV and Video |
The website falls into one or all of these categories, and, obviously, these are the areas of interest for the target audience. |
| Alternative websites | act.org actstudent.org cappex.com collegeconfidential.com commonapp.org couragetogrowscholarship.com fastweb.com fidelity.com finaid.org hercampus.com naviance.com scholarshipexperts.com scholarships.com studystack.com youtube.com |
These websites fall into the same categories as bigfuture.collegeboard.org, more or less. By extension, they compete with the analysed website for the same target audience. |
| Possibly visited | collegeboard.roadtripnation.com overseas.iu.edu cc-seas.financialaid.columbia.edu cce.ais.psu.edu mynextmove.org |
The people that visit bigfuture.collegeboard.org also seem to have a marked interest in these websites. |
Trying to acquire very accurate visitor data is immensely difficult and can only be done when given direct access to the server. However, there are ways to get approximate numbers.
The numbers themselves probably say enough, but we'll add some insight where possible.
| Parameter | Current result | Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| Approximate traffic per month | 2.90M | Without taking the target audience context into account, we'd say the website's not that popular. We do urge you to make your own conclusions, though. |
| Delta of monthly traffic | +9.95% | The traffic has grown over the last month. |
| Approximate time on site | 00:04:13 | Wow, that's a great average result! The website must have some incredible content to keep visitors occupied. |
| bigfuture.collegeboard.org Visitor Bounce Rate | 55.84% | This is the final search stop for a lot of visitors. |
Servers are physical storage devices that contain all the files and databases associated with a specific website, sometimes more than one. At times, a server makes up several virtual devices - separate servers used for shared hosting (tends to be cheaper). Entering website address into the address bar of your browser starts the request process during which your browser contacts the server and asks for specific files and database entries in order to display the requested website.
