I was just looking at my website statistics and it I had over 4500 hits on Friday and averaging about 1350 a day... is that good.... I think it's great.
But maybe someone can help me understand what's the difference between a hit and a session graph and page view?.... What should I be excited about?
OK well - that's all
Well my understanding which is limited the deeper they go into you website the better .
Front page hits are not as good as 2nd 3rd 4th page search / reviews
What do you think drove so many people towards your site
Het Nattallie,
Yes, I'd like to know what got folks to your site. Are you in Google? What page? What's your secret? OK last question...How'd you do it?
Thanks,

Craigslist... I maintain a very active presence there and direct traffic to my website....
have really enjoyed reading some of your past blogs.. I noticed you havent written in some time. Is that because you use an outside blog primarliy? or maybe AR just wasnt worthwhile venture for getting business. thanks for sharing.
Firstly Nattalie, congrats on driving all o that traffic to you site. It's so funny - a lot of people dismiss Craig's List, when it is actually a very valuable way of driving folks to your site.
The term 'hits' is a little misleading as it makes us think that if a website gets 100 hits that 100 people visited that website....unfortunatley not the case. If your webpage has say 4 images on it then for one visit I have generated 5 hits (1 for each image + 1 for the visit to that page).
Sessions measure each unique visitor....so if I say I have 100 sessions for the day that is probably a better indicator of my web traffic than if I tell you I got 100 hits.
Someone in sales could probably better advise you on page views. I know that it is similar to sessions and that advertisers like to compare page views with sales to determine if they shold continue to advertise......but I am not sure.
Hope that helps!
