Look through the key statistics analysis before diving in deeper into our report:
Parameter | Current result | Assessment |
---|---|---|
Meta title | Australia's official weather forecasts & weather radar - Bureau of Meteorology | 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 78 characters long. |
Description | Bureau of Meteorology web homepage provides the Australian community with access to weather forecasts, severe weather warnings, observations, flood information, marine and high seas forecasts and climate information. Products include weather charts, satellite photos, radar pictures and climate maps. The Bureau also has responsibility for compiling and providing comprehensive water information across Australia. | This meta description is 413 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 | Bureau of Meteorology; 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 0.494 seconds | The website load speed is rather good. |
Alexa global rank | 4437, as last checked | Based on information provided by Alexa, we can assume the website is well known. |
Quantcast | Current rank, according to our database, is at 83705 | The website seems to enjoy good popularity, according to Quantcast. |
Links on homepage | Around 215 links | This is a well-judged amount of links for a homepage. |
Backlinks amount | Approximately 7194 | Such a great number of backlinks! |
HTML size | 31.6KB | 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 23.43.121.86. | 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 | Kids and Teens School Time Social Studies Geography Oceania Australia Science Earth Sciences Atmospheric Sciences Meteorology Government Agencies Oceania Regional Oceania Australia Government Departments Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts Regional Oceania Australia Weather |
The website falls into one or all of these categories, and, obviously, these are the areas of interest for the target audience. |
Alternative websites | weatherzone.com.au willyweather.com.au eldersweather.com.au auspost.com.au 9news.com.au |
These websites fall into the same categories as bom.gov.au, more or less. By extension, they compete with the analysed website for the same target audience. |
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 time on site | 6:05 | Wow, that's a great average result! The website must have some incredible content to keep visitors occupied. |
ALEXA rating is based on the number of visitors a given page receives. The higher the visitor count, the higher the rating. Currently, ALEXA has over 4 million websites indexed. If you sense cynicism in our words, you're not mistaken - we think Alexa rating is overrated, to put it mildly. A website's worth (and contextual popularity) is more than the sum of the views. So take the rank with a grain of salt.
QUANTCAST is a data processing company that mostly gathers information for advertising companies. It specializes in real-time audience analysis and, as you may have gathered, is really quite similar to Alexa, if perhaps not as infamous. To our knowledge, the company has rated and ranked approximately 82892799 websites so far. There is always a caveat with these sort of ranking systems - they don't really take any context into account. As such, their usefulness is debatable at best. Don't overthink this rank - it's just a number, really.
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.
What follows is certainly very geeky, but informative for the knowing. Dig in:
