Look through the key statistics analysis before diving in deeper into our report:
| Parameter | Current result | Assessment |
|---|---|---|
| Meta title | British Franchise Association - promoting and accrediting excellence in franchising - Bfa | 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 89 characters long. |
| Description | Accredited franchise opportunities and expert professional advisors - The British Franchise Association (bfa) - the only single regulatory body for ethical franchising in the UK. Here to help those looking to buy a franchise, or those looking to franchise a business. | This meta description is 267 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 | franchise, franchising, franchisee, franchisor, start-up, business | 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 1.3819 seconds | The website load speed is rather good. |
| Alexa global rank | 779650, 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. |
| Links on homepage | Around 476 links | This looks... a little suspicious, to be honest. |
| Backlinks amount | Approximately 314 | A good amount of backlinks. |
| HTML size | 96.8KB | 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 94.236.34.114. | We apologize, but for some reason we were unable to gather enough data to provide a detailed insight at this time. |
| Main domain information | Registered on: 2004-05-20 12:06:45 | We apologize, but for some reason we were unable to gather enough data to provide a detailed insight at this time. The website domain address is currently registered at Mesh Digital Limited |
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 Opportunities Franchising Directories Regional Directories European Regional Europe United Kingdom Business and Economy Opportunities |
The website falls into one or all of these categories, and, obviously, these are the areas of interest for the target audience. |
| Alternative websites | whichfranchise.com franchisedirect.co.uk franchiseinfo.co.uk franchisesales.co.uk franchiseworld.co.uk |
These websites fall into the same categories as thebfa.org, 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 | 2:34 | Pretty good for an average time spent, wouldn't you say? |
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.
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:
