A user interface allows a user to select a particular web-page, and a display processor presents transversal links relative to this selected web-page, indicating the web-pages from-which visitors have come to this web-page, and the web-pages to-which visitors go to when leaving this web-page. Preferably, the presentation of the transversal links is in graphic form. A directed graph is presented that illustrates path information as annotated links between nodes of the graph. Each node in this presentation represents a web-address and each link represents traversals between two of the nodes. The user is provided interactive options that include changing the names of the nodes to more meaningful alias, grouping of nodes to obtain higher-level views of the path patterns, redefining the form and format of the annotations, and so on. Presenting the path-analysis information in a graphical form provides the user with a more immediate and intuitive understanding of the flow of visits to and through a user's web-site.
