Summary
The Summary shows totals and averages for Sessions, Pageviews,
Hits, and Bytes for the currently selected Date Range.
Calculation Methodology
- Session: A series of Hits to your site over a specific period
of time by one visitor.
- Pageview: A request to the web server by a visitor's browser
for any web page; this excludes images, javascript, and other
generally embedded file types.
- Hit: Any successful request to a webserver from a visitor's
browser.
- Bytes: The quantity of network bandwidth used by the files
requested during the selected Date Range.
Note
Because Bytes numbers can be very large, abbreviations are used as
appropriate, such as MB for megabytes (~millions of bytes). The
average length of Session is displayed as hours : minutes :
seconds.
