Hits include all individual files to load a page including CSS and images. This page alone loads well over 100 images.
A better measure of traffic is visits, unique visits, and page views. Hits just tells you how many things the server had to send out.

If I understand your theory correctly, when I hit refresh it (hit counter) should jump about 100. But even when I hit refresh after clearing my cache and internet files, it only increments by one. :shrug:
edit, rabid got me curious ;)



and this is per my host...
Quote:What do these statistics show me?
These statistics show all successful page views (also known as page impressions) and the time they were made. Only fully loaded pages are counted. Individual images and components are not included.
What does this tell me?
You can determine your site usage and number of pages viewed at which times.

No worries, you didn't spoil anything. Your method was not true to the stats posted. No biggie. I hope the traffic continues too. It's fun stuff.

Zero, is it just me, or does this place load pages just a little faster than the other place did, at least near the end?

Well, some people define hits differently, but a true hit is any call to the server including images and other files. However, some people still call hits page views even though they are 2 different things.
It looks like your stats are accurate, but you are confusing the term "page views" with "hits."

I only track unique visitors, anyone who comes in, differentiated by unique IP. I refresh the page a hundred times a day, that doesn't mean anything.
I eliminate my IP's and set a one hour limit to count a unique a second time. This way, you know who is coming and coming back, not flying by or refreshing. All page views tell you is that people are going into topics, which they should, because this is a forum.
Count uniques, it's the only way to remain objective. But, you don't get the astronomical numbers to throw out.

Unique IP visits I agree is the best way to measure traffic. Which is also how they are tracked on this server. However, it is set for only one HALF hour.
