Reach over 23,000 potential clients per month. Don't be confused by WEB sites advertising "hits" or "page views" only. The two main site statistics to evaluate when considering where to put your valuable WEB advertising dollars are "Site Traffic" and "Search Engine Placement". Read on for a short explanation of these statistics and how Guam-OnLine.Com measures up.

Site Traffic. Three statistics widely used to evaluate WEB site performance are "Hits", "Page Views" and "Visits".

Hits. A hit is a request for any item of information on a web page. A single visitor viewing a single WEB page will register a large number of “hits”. This statistic is often quoted by WEB sites, but is a highly inflated measure of site performance.

Page Views. A page view occurs each time an individual page of a WEB Site is viewed. This is a better measurement than hits. But, a single visitor may view the same page a number of times on a single visit inflating the “page view” parameter.

Visit. A visit occurs the first time a computer visits a WEB site within a set time frame regardless of how many pages they view or how many times they view the same page. Site visits more accurately provide the exposure your ads will receive.
