As of this release we change the calculation for page duration & session duration, so that you get even more precise data.
Until now, the page duration was calculated by comparing the timestamps of a page and its subsequent page. The difference between the two timestamps is page duration. For the session duration, the same logic is applied to all pages during a session. For the last page of a session, a constant value was being used (30 seconds by default).
With this new release, the actions and media requests are taken into account when calculating the session duration and the page duration of the previous page. Instead of just adding a constant value, event and media requests on the previous page are being used to calculate the last page duration.
Example
| Page | Duration (sec.) | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 180 | Time between Page 1 and Page 2: 10:00:00 -> 10:03:00 |
| 2 | 120 | Time between Page 2 and Page 3: 10:03:00 -> 10:05:00 |
| 3 | 150 | Time between Page 3 and Action 5 plus the additional constant value: 10:05:00 -> 10:07:00 + 30 The constant value to be added can be configured per account. Default = 30s. |
As of this release we have improved our iPhone device detection: the device recognition process now also takes into account the screen resolution specified by the pixel if the detected device is a generic iPhone.
In practice, this means that iPhone models that have the same resolution will be grouped from now on. In your analyses, you will see all models in the same screen resolution grouped.

The documentation for TV Analytics is now available.
With Webtrekk TV-Tracking you can identify and visualize the direct influence of TV advertising on your website presence and conversions. With the data-based knowledge about the relationship between TV usage and website traffic, you can optimize your cross-media marketing campaigns in a targeted manner.
TV tracking is made possible by assigning Internet visitors who become aware of your company or product through television advertising to a particular TV spot. The TV-induced traffic on your website is determined by using elaborated algorithms: Based on the binding broadcast times recorded in real time, analyses are carried out of all visitors who visit your site within a defined period after the TV broadcast or who have used a search with specific keywords defined by you beforehand. Relevant visitor numbers are calculated from the increase in website traffic after the TV spot has been broadcast compared to traffic before the broadcast.
This document contains the instructions for correct setup and shows you how TV tracking works and how to use it.
