This section identifies the companies or organizations that accessed your Web site the most often.
This section identifies the top locations of the users of your site by country. The country of the user is determined by the suffix of their domain name. Use this information carefully because this information is based on where the domain name of the visitor is registered, and may not always be an accurate identifier of the actual geographic location of this visitor (for example, individual visitors will often be seen as coming from the state where their ISP is registered.)
This section outlines general server activity, comparing the level of activity on weekdays and weekends. Values in the table do not include erred hits.
This section shows the activity for each day of the week for the report period (i.e. if there are two Mondays in the report period, the value presented is the sum of all hits for both Mondays.)

This table shows the total number of hits for the site, how many were successful, how many failed, and calculates the percentage of hits that failed. It may help you in determining the reliability of your site.
This section shows the number of successful form submissions compared to the number that failed. Webtrends considers anything with Post command as a form.
This section identifies the type of errors which were returned by the Client accessing your server.

This section further breaks down your Web site's activity to show which cities were the most active on your site. This information is based on where the domain name of the visitor is registered, and may not always be an accurate representation of the actual geographic location of this visitor. This information can only be displayed if reverse DNS lookups have been performed.
This section helps you understand the bandwidth requirements of your site by indicating the volume of activity as Kbytes Transferred.
This section analyzes accesses to the directories of your site. This information can be useful in determining the types of data most often requested.
This section identifies the domain names or numeric IP addresses with links to your site. This information will only be displayed if your server is logging this information.
