This page identifies the most popular Web pages on your site, shows you how often they were viewed, and displays the average length of time the page was viewed.
Average Time Viewed - Average length of time the specified page was viewed.
Pages - Specific page being analyzed. If the page has a formal title, you will see the title of the page and the URL. Otherwise, you will only see the URL.
Subtotal - Sum of all data rows for each listed page.
Total - Sum of the subtotal and all data that does not appear on the page.
Views - Number of times the specified page was viewed by a visitor. Each page can be viewed more than once by the same visitor, and each view is counted. If you want to ignore repeated page views by the same visitor, look in the Visits column.
Visits - Number of visits that include a view of the specified page. Individual visitors are counted each time they come to the Web site, and are counted only once per visit no matter how many pages they look at. If a visitor is idle longer than the idle-time limit, WebTrends assumes the visit was voluntarily terminated. If the visitor continues to browse your site after they reach the idle-time limit, a new visit is counted.
% - Percentage of visitors who viewed the specified page.
Pages with good content and design are more likely to attract visitors and be revisited. Less popular pages on a site can be made more appealing by improving the content or incorporating design elements similar to that on the more important pages. Always remember that people are far more interested in content than in design, and average view times can help determine which content is most important to your visitors.

This page identifies the first page viewed when a visitor visits your site. The most common entry page is usually the home page, but other common entry pages include specific URLs that go directly to a particular page.
Entry Page - The first page a visitor sees when entering your Web site. To qualify as an entry page the visit must start with a valid page type. If a session starts at a file with a different type (such as a graphic or sound file), the file does not count as an entry page, and the session is not included in the total. Such sessions are often the result of other sites referencing a specific downloadable file or graphic on your site. In these cases, a session may have a single hit to a non-page file, and will not be counted. Also, Web servers do not always log hits in perfect chronological order. For example, a hit to a GIF file can appear in the log before the hit to the HTML page that refers to this GIF.
