Look through the key statistics analysis before diving in deeper into our report:
| Parameter | Current result | Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| Meta title | Short Story America | 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 19 characters long. |
| Description | A description has not been provided for this site. | This meta description is 50 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 | short story america, short stories, american literature, classics, writers, writing, readers, reading, students, literature, short story classics, essays, book, novel, short story, Stories, authors, public domain, fiction, short fiction, edgar allan poe, washington irving, mark twain, f. scott fitzgerald, ernest hemingway, flannery o'connor, raymond carver, john cheever, john grisham, richard connell, the most dangerous game, the lady or the tiger, all summer in a day, classic short stories, suspense, horror, drama, humor, humorists, science fiction, historical fiction, historical novel, john o'hara, the cask of amontillado, modern fiction, contemporary writers, literary subscription, publication, publications, publishing, publisher, publication, self publish, self publishing, short fiction curriculum, literature curriculum, new short stories, modern short stories, fun to read, literary magazine, literary ezine, ezine, internet publications, middle school english, high school english, craft of writing, how to write a short story, vocabulary, vocabulary terms, vocabulary definitions, literary devices, literary homework, author biography, writer biography, about the author, characters in conflict, plot, mood, setting, rising action, climax, resolution, falling action, dialogue, narration, point of view, narrative, narrative point of view, accurate paragraphing, outline, creative writing, foreshadowing, simile, metaphor, personification, alliteration, hyperbole, symbolism, symbol, theme, thematic, analytical essay, john updike, joyce carol oates, t. c. boyle, langston hughes, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry James, Stephen Crane, Conrad Aiken, Bartleby the Scrivener, The Open Boat, Billy Budd, Young Goodman Brown, Daisy Miller, The Fall of the House of Usher, A Good Man is Hard to Find, Winter Dreams, The Rich Boy, Hills Like White Elephants, The Killers, The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber, Babylon Revisited, The Great Gatsby, The Old Man and the Sea, Joseph Conrad, James Joyce, Anton Chekhov, Nikolai Gogol, Guy de Maupassant, Leo Tolstoy, The Death of Ivan Ilyich, Franz Kafka, The Metamorphosis, Heart of Darkness, The Necklace, The Overcoat, Irwin Shaw, Robert Frost (yes, the poet), Moby Dick, Wizard of Oz, D r. Seuss, Rod Serling, Twilight Zone, Richard Matheson, Charles Beaumont, The Box | 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 0.8585 seconds | The website load speed is rather good. |
| Alexa global rank | 1278774, as last checked | Based on Alexa Global, we can assume the website is not very popular. Mind you, Alexa's worth is questionable at best. |
| Quantcast | Current rank, according to our database, is at 81620 | The website seems to enjoy good popularity, according to Quantcast. |
| Links on homepage | Around 10 links | This looks... a little suspicious, to be honest. |
| Backlinks amount | Approximately 55 | The number of backlinks seems awfully low. If possible, the webmaster should work towards building more through quality content and public awareness. |
| HTML size | 11.9KB | 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 72.167.232.204. | 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 |
|---|---|---|
| Alternative websites | uncleremus.com burstbase.net pham2013.weebly.com terra-lu-travel.com openmaroc.com |
These websites fall into the same categories as shortstoryamerica.com, 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 | 0:59 | This is a very good metric, as it allows to see if visitors find what they are looking for on a website and are interested in the content. In this particular case, the results are not great. |
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 55894182 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:
