  2. If repeat or first time guest (does site engage users enough to return or not?)

  3. Entrance page (What page captured a users interest enough to click and visit us?)

  4. Browser & O.S. combination (to determine site compatibility and mobile vs desktop user percentage to guide format of site)

  5. Referrer (how do site visitors find us? Ads, google, social media, etc?)

  6. General geo-location (to determine general areas/regions of the world that are interested in our site, thus allowing us to focus on & expand weather related links that may be of use to those general regions of the globe. Your address is never revealed to us).

  • These stats (traffic) are password protected for added security.
