16. information and background on data and figures

Page Impressions (Pis) Number of PIs per period.

The number alone does not give a qualitative statement about the benefit of the site. It can only be aggregated into a relevant statement in conjunction with other figures.
If the figures are generally too low, the accesses via search engines and the associated measures may need to be reviewed
Visits Number of visits per period
Here, too, other figures must be added as a weighting.
The number of PIs per visit or visitor is interesting.
Visitors Number of visitors per period
What was said for PIs and visits also applies here
 
PIs pro Seite Number of views of a page per period.
Can provide information about the general interest in a page.
Please see Freshness and Personalisation Index.
PIs pro Bereich It makes more sense, instead of following thousands of pages of the website with similar content, to divide the website into thematic areas and make statements about the interest in the thematic blocks See also Freshness and Personalisation Index
PIs pro Parameter Definition of own parameters or variables, e.g. in the shop or in personalisation and counting of the frequency of parameter values per time period

Rather seldom used indicator, as these are very individual.
PIs pro Visitor Indicator of the number of page impressions of a visitor. Can be measured per period or per lifetime. Provides information on whether a visitor belongs to the target group or not. Many PIs per visitor indicate a high relevance of the website to the visitor's interest. Stickiness and conversion can be observed in this context.
PIs pro Visit As with PIs per visitor, a key figure for the relevance of the site for the visitor. Conversion can also be observed here.
Performance Performance is a separate key figure group that essentially puts the number of hits in a chronological context: Page impressions per hour, dwell time per hour etc. These numbers are primarily used to find the "prime time of the website Background can be technical requirements as well as marketing requirements (calculation of banner prices etc.)
