Perhaps the most relevant statistics data that we could gather is presented here:

|---|---|---|
| Site title (meta) | Bienvenue au site Web Bibliothèque et Archives Canada / Welcome to the Library and Archives Canada website | Sticking to between 50-60 characters for meta title length is a good idea. The length of this website's meta title is 106. |
| Website meta description | Provides descriptions of Canadian information resources created for the Internet, including general digital collections, resources centered around a particular theme, and reference sources and databases. | The length of the meta description is 203 characters. Google recommends up to around 280-320 characters at the most. |
| Website load speed | Approximately 0.55 seconds | Website load speed is on a good level, great! But if an improvement can be made, it's always for the better. |
| Rank by Alexa | 88,319 | The site is among the more popular ones, according to Alexa. How accurate the rank is remains a question. |
| Homepage links | Approximately 4 | Such an amount of links on a homepage might raise a question or two. |
| Pages linking back | We counted 4,125 | A great amount of backlinks. |
| Size of page HTML | 5.9KB | This is a very good result, as search engines prioritize websites that are quick to load. |
| Server data | Server seems to be online. IP adress for this domain is 142.78.200.66. | Due to lack of data, we can't provide a meaningful insight. |
The basic overview not enough? Let's dive deeper.
A website is not just Quantcast ranks and meta information. There is a whole lot more to it. Let's give it a proper look now, shall we?

The following statistics are provided only as an approximation. We can't guarantee the numbers are absolutely correct, but we do believe they are very much within the ballpark and, as such, can give a pretty good idea about the popularity of this website.
Let's start with some telling numbers and then break it all down.
| Data type/Website parameter | Status or value | Our findings |
|---|---|---|
| Average visit time | 2:02 | Visitors spend a decent amount of time reading the website. |
Alexa, perhaps the oldest ranking system of its sort, bases it's website rating on approximated number of visitors of a specific page. In other words, the more visitors, the higher the global and local ranks. As of recently, Alexa has well over four million websites ranked. Having said all that, Alexa rank should be taken with a grain of salt. Or a massive bucketload. In other words, we think it to be greatly overrated, as it never takes into account how popular a website is within its niche.
What is a server? It's basically a physical storage device (one that, sometimes, makes up several virtual servers for the cheaper shared hosting) that holds all the files and databases associated with a specific website or websites. Obviously, it's a touch more complicated than that (servers also have processors), but the essence is quite simple - your browser contacts the server, which then sends all the neccessary information and files to your computer. Each physical server has a unique IP address assigned to it, too, for easy recognition.
