Site performance
We carefully monitor how many people are visiting our website as this helps us to develop popular areas of the site further and to investigate why some areas are not visited very often.
Visitor statistics
We gather information about how many people are visiting our website through the use of Google Analytics.
This table provides information on page impressions and unique visitors.
Page impressions (or page views) are how many times a web page is viewed by a visitor to the site. A single visitor can produce many page views within one visit by looking at pages several times.
The unique visitors figure measures visits by individuals.
