VisitorVille: Referrer Analysis
All aboard!
When a visitor arrives at your website, they either used a search engine or an external link to get there. In VisitorVille, each "referrer" is depicted as a bus, and these busses deliver your visitor directly to the correct webpage (depicted as a house).
Each search engine bus is appropriately painted, so if you see the Overture bus driving through your streets, you know it's busy dropping off a new visitor to your site.

For information on all the busses in VisitorVille, just click the 'Referrer Statistics' icon on the toolbar. (Details below).
