information
Wikipedia "hits"
definition
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_analytics)
Hit
- " A request for a file
from the web server.
Available only in log
analysis.
The number of hits received
by a website is frequently
cited to assert its
popularity,
but this number is
extremely misleading and
dramatically over-estimates
popularity.
A single web-page typically
consists of multiple (often
dozens) of discrete files,
each of which is counted as
a hit as the page is
downloaded, so the number of
hits
is really an arbitrary
number more reflective of
the complexity of individual
pages
on the website than the
website's actual popularity.
The total number of
visitors
or page views provides a
more realistic and accurate
assessment of popularity. "
Alexa.com
(subsidiary of Amazon.com)
traffic ranking
of PlantSearchOnline.com
is around #800,000
worldwide, and #140,000 in
the USA alone,
in
the top 2.5%
of ranked sites. Ranking
is based on site traffic-
volume of Alexa registered
visitors, total visitors,
and page views) during
the last three months.
(Google is #1, Facebook is
#2, Wikipedia is #8,
etc.) A website using Alexa
has its ranking number in a
toolbar at the top of each
web page. There are about 30
million sites with Alexa
toolbars, of about 4 billion
websites total worldwide.
PlantSearchOnline was
started in 2001 and revised
in March 2011 with a design
facelift, more plant and
grower listings, and
advertising to support
updates, improvements, and
growth.
Unlike other
plant searching/finding
websites,
PlantSearchOnline.com openly
displays all the
plant varieties and all the
nurseries that are
in the search database, without
requiring a login.
In addition,
deeper "traffic" data
(visitors,
page views, visitor origins,
hits)
is displayed right here.
