Perhaps the most relevant statistics data that we could gather is presented here:
Data type/Website parameter | Status or value | Our findings |
---|---|---|
Site title (meta) | Home - DFA | Sticking to between 50-60 characters for meta title length is a good idea. The length of this website's meta title is 10. |
Website meta description | Established in 1878, the Diamond Fields Advertiser (DFA) has been the voice of the people of the Northern Cape, the diamond fields and the City of Kimberley for more than a hundred years. The DFA is the flagship newspaper of Africa Community Media, a company within the bigger Independent Media group. As newspapers continue to migrate into the digital era, the DFA’s website is just the latest edition to a host of platforms available to readers and advertisers. The website’s main focus will be on local content, bringing readers the news from Kimberley and the Northern Cape as well as providing advertisers with a solid platform to reach potential customers. It will also feature South African news, world news, lifestyle and leisure, sport, opinion and features . . . making it a ‘one-click’ stop for those who want to stay in the know. | The length of the meta description is 841 characters. Google recommends up to around 280-320 characters at the most. |
Website load speed | Approximately 0.9016 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 | 860,090 | We are not fans of the Alexa rank, but if we base our assumptions on it, the website is not that popular. |
Homepage links | Approximately 199 | A good amount of links and nothing to worry about. |
Size of page HTML | 151.1KB | 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 104.28.3.80. | Due to lack of data, we can't provide a meaningful insight. |
The basic overview not enough? Let's dive deeper.
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.
