Subject field(s)
  • Internet and Telematics
DEF

Any request to the Web server for any type of file.

CONT

An HTML page can account for several hits: the page itself, each image on the page, and any embedded sound or video clips. Therefore, the number of hits a [Web site] receives is not a valid popularity gauge, but rather is an indication of server use and loading.

CONT

The term "hit" is perhaps the most misused term in online marketing, mistakenly used to mean unique visitors, visits, page views, or all of the above.

OBS

[It] can be an HTML page, an image (jpeg, gif, png, etc.), a sound clip, a cgi script, and many other file types.

OBS

web hit: The Translation Bureau recommends in its revised 2013 Linguistic Recommendation that “web” not be capitalized when it is part of a compound, whether the compound is written as two words or one, with or without a hyphen

French

Domaine(s)
  • Internet et télématique
DEF

Demande de fichier sur un serveur Web.

CONT

Chaque élément d'une page Web demandée (y compris les graphiques, un clip vidéo, du contenu audio, une animation Flash, etc.) est compté comme un appel de fichier individuel. Ainsi, une page ayant deux images nécessitera trois appels de fichier (1 page HTML + 2 images).

OBS

Étant donné que le nombre d'éléments par page est très variable, les appels de fichier sont peu fiables pour l'évaluation de l'achalandage d'un site Web.

OBS

requête : forme abrégée du terme «requête de fichier». Mise en garde : ce terme rend également la notion du terme anglais «query».

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Internet y telemática
DEF

Solicitud de un archivo realizada al servidor.
