How does MySiteTraffic count my website traffic?
_
When you add the MySiteTraffic tracking code on your website or blog pages, every time a visitor views your website pages it loads an invisible image in the visitors browser. This "hit" triggers the MySiteTraffic hit counter, which records that vistors location and computer information, how that vistor found your website, as well as the page that visitor is viewing. Subsequent page views on your site by the visitor are similarly recorded, providing you with the valuable click-path tracking metrics; that is, you can view the actual path each visitor takes when navigating around your website pages.
Aggregate metrics are calculated when you view website traffic reports for a specific timeframe, providing you with total number of visitors, pages views and information about each referral source (either another website that links to your site, or a search engine that has your pages listed in their search index). In order to receive accurate web site traffic metrics, you must utilize the MySiteTraffic tracking code on every HTML page on your website. Note that you should NOT use the tracking code on "SSL" secured pages (https) since this may cause a security warning in the users browser. Additionally, you cannot use the tracking code on "downloadable" files such as pictures, and PDF or other documents.
