Failing Enterprise Traffic Report

Failing Enterprise gets lots of visitors, and the traffic just keeps growing!

Here are some charts showing our increasing Internet popularity (all data updated Friday, 2006-04-28).

Sites

A site is a single IP address visiting this website.  If an organization is using dynamic hide mode NAT (Network Address Translation), many internal users may share a single public IP address, which would lead to an undercounting of sites.  Users with dynamically assigned IP addresses using DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) may change their IP addresses, which could lead to an overcounting of sites.  This overcounting is probably an order of magnitude smaller than the undercounting described above.

Visits

A visit is a web session from a single IP address.  Any further requests within the next 30 minutes are counted within the previous session.  Only a request for a page (not an image, etc.) counts as, or extends, a visit.

Pages

A page is a request for a single web page, which may contain many individual objects.  A typical web session involves requests for many web pages.

Hits

A hit is a request for an individually-addressable object, that is, an object with a unique URL.  A page typically contains many objects such as images.  To ensure fast page loads and improve usability, Failing Enterprise is designed to have fewer images per page than most other web sites.
