Look through the key statistics analysis before diving in deeper into our report:
| Parameter | Current result | Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| Meta title | City of Chicago | 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 15 characters long. |
| Description | Welcome to the official City of Chicago Website. The source for information about City services, departments, programs and initiatives, and officials for Chicago residents, businesses, and visitors. | This meta description is 198 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 | City of Chicago; government; services; | 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 1.113 seconds | The website load speed is rather good. |
| Alexa global rank | 20824, as last checked | According to Alexa and the Global rank, the site is quite well known. |
| Quantcast | Current rank, according to our database, is at 14262 | The website seems to enjoy good popularity, according to Quantcast. |
| Links on homepage | Around 284 links | This is a well-judged amount of links for a homepage. |
| Backlinks amount | Approximately 5556 | Such a great number of backlinks! |
| HTML size | 80.5KB | 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 107.162.134.58. | 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 | Business and Industry > Real Estate Travel > Tourism Reference > Libraries and Museums Law and Government > Government |
The website falls into one or all of these categories, and, obviously, these are the areas of interest for the target audience. |
| Alternative websites | choosechicago.com dnainfo.com chicagoparkdistrict.com illinois.gov comed.com |
These websites fall into the same categories as cityofchicago.org, more or less. By extension, they compete with the analysed website for the same target audience. |
| Possibly visited | cookcountypropertyinfo.com chipublib.org newsroomdb.tribapps.com navypier.com chicityclerk.com |
The people that visit cityofchicago.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 | 1.91M | The website is clearly extremely popular. |
| Delta of monthly traffic | -7.89% | Visitor amount has decreased somewhat over the past month when compared to the month before that. |
| Approximate time on site | 3:26 | Wow, that's a great average result! The website must have some incredible content to keep visitors occupied. |
| cityofchicago.org Visitor Bounce Rate | 43.65% | This is the final search stop for a lot of visitors. |
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 6937882 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.
