website performance and uptime of the major players in your sector?

The problem As the Internet has become the preferred channel through which many customers obtain information, products and services, can your business afford not to know how your website compares to your competitors? Like many companies, you may not have the infrastructure or internal expertise to monitor the performance of your own and competitors’ websites, from multiple global locations, leaving you with no way of knowing if your website is performing well and meeting the needs of your clients, or if clients are abandoning your website. Research has found that Internet users who are dissatisfied with a website’s performance, will abandon it and seek an alternative website. Page load time is a critical factor. Akamai report that increasingly savvy Internet users will wait no longer than 4 seconds for a page to load.1 After 4 seconds 33% of users will abandon the website and 75% will never return. Akamai’s report concludes that an underperforming website results in a significant loss in overall sales and leaves users with a negative brand perception.

Have industry and competitor website performance statistics in order to benchmark your website and drive performance improvements? Have competitively priced benchmarking? Have access to clear reports via a web based Customer Console?

The solution WatchMouse provide an accurate, cost effective solution. Using 25 globally distributed monitoring stations, WatchMouse’s YardStick measures the performance of your website from locations across the world, to provide accurate load time, speed & availability statistics. These measurements are used to create your Site Performance Index (SPI), which represents the users’ perceptions of your

website. Your SPI is then ranked, relative to that of your sector & competitors within countries relevant to your business. A YardStick report gives an overview of trends in relative performance and availability across sectors and countries.

How does YardStick work? The WatchMouse Site Performance Index (SPI) was developed by Dr Peter van Eijk and his team, based on many years of practical experience and research into system performance and availability. The WatchMouse SPI quantifies users’ perceptions of a website’s speed and availability, into a single number. An SPI of below 500 represents the user experience of a very well performing website, while an SPI of 1,500 or above, indicates a negative website user experience. Using one of 25 globally distributed monitoring stations, WatchMouse retrieves the homepage of a website at a fixed frequency, without images, frames, etc. This HTML page is expected to download within 4 seconds, without any errors. If a 4 second period is exceeded, or if an error occurs, the result is corroborated by another monitoring station. Measurements are taken every 15 minutes, 24/7, and reports are updated continuously. After calculating a website’s SPI, WatchMouse rank that website against the results of competitors
