Article Summary

Which domains and web pages drove traffic to content.

Based on the "referer" header from the browser:

"The HTTP referer (a misspelling of referrer) is an optional HTTP header field that identifies the address of the webpage (i.e., the URI or IRI) which is linked to the resource being requested."

Referer Domains

Table. Top-level domains where content access originates from. Sorted by most sessions first, includes the "Session %" column which indicates the percentage of the total active sessions that a line item makes up.

These are special referer domains:
