 Stop listening
to how many "HITS" your web site gets. It is irrelevant. So
what should you look for in determining how successful your
web site traffic is:
-
Unique Visitors / Distinct Hosts Served:
Individual visitors to your web site which are only
counted the first time someone visits your web site.
-
Total
Visitors:
All visitors including the first time someone visits
your web site and also returning visitors.
-
Pages
Viewed:
Gives you a total count of how many individual pages
of your web site are clicked on by visitors.
-
Referring Site:
Tells you where your web site traffic is coming
from. This also let you know how much traffic you
actually get from search engines.
-
Referring URL:
Tells you which pages are your most popular. This is
important because if you know which individual pages
are not viewed as much as others, you can make
changes to these pages of your web site to increase
awareness or interest.

This stat has no real relevance to the average web
site owner, but it can give you a heads-up if your
web designer is visiting your web site many times to
try to deceive you in how much traffic your web site
actually gets.
The truth about
web site statistics when it comes to how a web site performs
is because many web site owners do not know what a hit
actually is, they are easily deceived about how much traffic
their web site actually gets.
A "HIT" used to
be the standard for determining web site traffic success.
But that was over ten years ago. Once web site designers
found out what search engines determined to be a hit, web
designers started abusing the system to make their clients
thing the were getting more web site traffic than they
actually did. This is still done widespread today.
So what is a
"HIT"?... It is nothing more than an individual file
which is on a single web page. A file can be a navigation
bar, a picture, an animation, a flash element, and so on.
Here is the
problem, many web designers load each page of your web site
with as many files as they can without making your page to
cluttered. Some unethical web designers even stoop to taking
a single picture and cutting it up into several pieces for
the purpose of getting additional hits.

In order to separate ourselves from all other web design
and optimization companies, and to serve our clients
properly, we have to take approach that in order to put
our clients in the Top 10 in Google, we must be
aggressive enough to take Top 10 ranking positions away
from others.

"If
you are not our client... You are our prey!"
While this
may seem harsh, if we are to effectively and
aggressively represent our clients, putting them in the
Top Ten in Google is our main priority. Therefore we
cannot be concerned with companies we do not represent.
Our clients are only priority.
