Netcraft's ranking system is based on the number of failed requests. With performance measurements are made at 15-minute intervals from separate points on the globe, Netcraft measures the response times and averages the results each day. The percentage of failed requests is more important to customeres than shortest periods of outage, according to Netcraft, because it gives a pointer to the reliability of their routing.
