Site Statistics

I have not been checking the site statistics for both my blogs for quite some time and when I checked today, I was really astounded and ecstatic to find that my Blogspot blog has finally breached the 1,000-a-day visitor mark! Woot, that's really great. Here's an excerpt of the statistics from my Google Adsense account :

Traffic is normally lower towards the weekend.

My statistics for my dot com blog isn't too bad too and I have between 400-500+ visitors a day.

High traffic/visitors = good Real Ranking = more opps. No wonder I got a USD100 opp from 3P today. To all my readers out there, thanks very much for visiting my blog!

New Blog Site Stats

Looking at the site stats of my new blog available from the host, I am surprised to see that I have an average of 1,681 hits a day, sometimes the figure reaches 3,700. But what confuses me is the stats also show number of visitors which have a different figure. These are the stats shown for yesterday :

Date : 10 Oct 2007
No. of visitors : 164 (the figure here is low as I still have 200+ visitors to my old blog)
No. of pages :367
Hits : 1879

Does anyone know how to interpret it, i.e. what's the difference between no. of visitors and no. of hits? What are pages too - is it the number of pages that the visitors had viewed from my blog?

Also, I am surprised to see from the stats that most of my visitors are from Australia (8,444 hits), USA (8,678 hits), Netherlands, Japan, HK and other countries abroad. It surprises me more that hits from Malaysia only stand at 500+. These blogging stats are really mind boggling!
