    Web Stats are they correct?

    I recently published my site about 2 weeks. The web stats say Ive had over 15,000 hits which seems incredibly high since it also states I only had 165 visitors. Ive been updating my site daily but can this cause it to have 15,000 hits?

    That is very possible. Every page that is viewed, even the same page are counted as a hit. It adds up quick. Its possible for them to be faulty if, but its relatively accurate

      Hits and visitors are not the same thing....Every time a graphic or something s loaded it is counted as a hit.

        I doubt Ive loaded enuff items to contribute to this number ..even a 1000 items loaded would be way too much.

          Its depends on your page. As vodahost has said all images count as a hit. Even pages with external stylesheets or javascript files count as a hit.

          If you have 20 images on your website there will be 21 hits per page load (20 images + 1 html page (the page itself) )

          If you and you and 9 other visitors view 10 pages daily that is 2100 hits a day (21*10*10) over close to 15k a week
