ABSTRACT:
Elements on a website are associated with the business success of the website, such as determined by sales or orders. Contribution of the elements to the business success is accomplished by assignment a fraction of the success value to each element using allocation, participation, and/or allocated participation methods. Reports are generated quantifying website element usage, for example by superimposing color shadings or other visual indicia on a representation of a page of the website.
