Dumbest...question...EVER: What's a "hit"?
OK, I am not as dumb as this question might make me appear...maybe close. When you talk about a "hit" on a website, can you quantify that?
Does it mean a surfer has clicked on xxx.com or... Does it mean xxx.com served a file of some type to the surfer? I ask this because I'm parsing raw logfiles...once I have a graphical display to look at, I see under the "website hits" category a figure in the 30k range. However, this translates into about 300 individual, or "unique" surfers when viewing by IP addresses. So, to me this says "On average, each surfer has generated HTTP requests of about 1000 files". And this can be anything from a thumbnailed .jpg to the actual .html page itself. Is this how certain webmasters can claim to have, like, 500k "hits" in a day? Or do they actually have half-a-million live individual surfers hit their pages? |

i still see some web sites use "hits" in their media kits to sway advertisers that maybe aren't reading carefully or are not too web savvy that they are a lot bigger then they are. I cannot believe people are still trying to get away with that.

Yes, a hit is just request for a file. Often confused with "unique" or "visit. One unique visitor (usually defined as one IP requested per page per 24 hours) requesting a page generates a hit for each file on the page, the page, each image, etc.

30k into 300 uniques?
You should be asking what a 'hitBOT' is, not a 'hit.'

HIT = "High Tech Interconnectivity"
means they are connected to more "P Cell Modes" than say, the next site you go to. It's a unit of network measurement for gauging overall liquividy.

He's probably confusing 30k with 30 kilobytes...

a hit = having some1killed by a hitman....
trancelate that to weblingo.. each time a piece of html page, or graphic or scipt is loaded on your site it counts as one hit....

No, no...I'm not confusing 30k with 30 kilbytes, nor are these actual figures from...say...my website, Fletch. Mileage may vary by model.
I'm just trying to wrap my head around the concept...so when Amp's good buddy Gotys says he has a TGP that gets 650k (650,000 just so there's no confusion) hits a day, that really doesn't mean shit, right? So, to take this a step further...if a traffic broker says he can sell you 1000 hits, does he mean 1000 unique surfers? 1000 clicks on a banner? What? Ya see? |

I assumed your parsing of the raw log files was a calculation from your actual logs. That's why I made the 30k assumption.
You have to ask. Most people call a hit a "raw" hit or click. All anyone really cares about though are unique visits and of course the money that produces.  raw = non-unique click = usually same as raw unique = usually 1 request per IP per 24 hrs visit = usually same as unique hit = any server request for a file, image, etc.. |
