Patent ID: 8095644

Claim:
A computer-implemented method for analyzing web page paths associated with accesses to one or more web pages associated with a plurality of websites, comprising: storing in a storage, time of access data reflecting a time of access associated with each instance of a web page access of the one or more web pages of the plurality of websites, page access data reflecting an identification of each accessed web page, and entity data reflecting an entity associated with each instance of the web page access; for each entity reflected in the storage, determining, by a processor, one or more web page paths traversed by the entity based on at least the time of access data and the page access data, wherein each web page path includes accesses to at least two web pages, the page access data includes a web page code, and each web page path includes a set of web page codes configured in consecutive time order, such that a time of access difference between a first time and a second time is less than a predetermined time period, wherein the first time reflects a time that a first web page of any two consecutive web pages reflected in the web page codes is accessed, and the second time reflects a time that a second web page of the any two consecutive web pages is accessed; determining, by the processor, based on the determined one or more web page paths, an average access time for each web page of the plurality of websites; analyzing, by the processor, entity interaction with the plurality of websites, based on the average access times and the determined one or more web page paths to determine one or more statistical values indicating whether a web page is bypassed by the entity in traversing the plurality of websites; and providing, by the processor, the one or more statistical values to one or more users or software processes.
