- Referring Search Engine is the search engine of the page
that made the referral.
- Total for Period is the total number of times that search
engine has made a referral.
- Average for Period is the daily average number of referrals
the search engine makes. It is calculated by taking the total
number of referrals made by the search engine in the time
period and dividing by the total number of days in the period.
- % of Total is the percentage of the total number of
referrals that the Referring Search Engine represents. It is
calculated by dividing the Total for Period for the specific
search engine by the overall Total for Period.
- Overall Total for Period is the total number of referrals
counted in the time period. The value in the Average for
Period column is the average number of referrals per item. It
is calculated by dividing the total referrals in the period by
the number of items for the period.
