A website registers all visits, including time duration but does it register me leaving when I , a) simply cl?

Question

For example, I wanted to go into the google homepage, but my web browser includes the google toolbar, so I accidently typed the website address into the google toolbar and the website opens up. However, before the website has finished loading (meaning it is still in the process of loading), I click on the back button, (which brings me back to the previous web page). So I entered the website but before the page finishes loading, I go back. In that case, does the google server registers me as having visisted the website but does it record me as going back to the previous website immediately? Does it keeps some kind of time log? What about the website? Does it register me as well? The webpage hasn’t finish loading yet, so will the website register an IP address?

Answer 1

It should register the page view if the request is able to reach the server which is the most likely situation.

Today it is common to measure single visitors system. Usually this system considers a single view of the web site a navigation of 30 minutes so every page that you visit will not count as a new view of the page and of the site. After that a new view is counted.
