Does anyone understand the Udimi Averages found on "My Page"

Here are my numbers

home 38%
mobile 9%
web 3%
proxy 5%

Shouldn't they add up to 100% ?

Where is the other traffic?

And what is it categorized as ?

Curious minds would like to know.

Thanks,
Heather

no, they won't.

A user can access your site from home via proxy from web referrer, using own mobile phone.

Best, Uncle Dimitry.

Uncle D,

You think why we are at it we can reexamine these averages LOL.

Couldn't we just make 6 cols and nix the rest. We are trying to help people make buying decisions. Less is usually more in that case. I vote we make the bars strictly about traffic quality. And call it "Traffic Mix."

You could have

Home
Mobile
Web
Proxy
Other

And make it add up to 100%

You could put the average t1 actual percentage in a more prominent place on the page.

these area completely different values and they can't be summed.

As I said earlier, you can have 99% home users and 100% from mobile device. This will sum to 199%. If their home connections are setup to run via proxy (all AOL users for example) this will add another 100% and make it 299%

Uncle D, I hear what your saying that traffic can fit into multiple categories. But as a buyer I don't care if it is proxy+home, proxy+mobile, proxy+web or proxy+other. All I want to know AS A BUYER is if the traffic IS PROXY because at point it becomes suspect/shit traffic. You don't need to classify it beyond that. In other words PROXY should supersede everything else. If you did it that way you could get to 100% for the traffic total. It's my opinion that it would be more useful then, but you da master :) Cheers! - Heather

P.S. It's more useful because Mobile / Desktop percentages would only reflect good clicks.
