What are page views of a website?

[{"selector":"#anim-cecdfe31-d4be-430c-8a65-3a1d4e309cdc [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-12.514648210040342%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-864bfd61-66a8-46fa-80df-cbdbabecce33","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c2e5a675-a7d5-46f2-9c78-e514eba8db79","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 274.95279%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Whenever a user visits a web page, it is called a page view.

[{"selector":"#anim-ca3049f1-decc-4c4c-a94c-5727a8a7da37 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-44.90389204796397%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-9e2ba200-9eb1-4e3a-abf3-c5876daa074d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-593dc418-996e-44ee-a3d8-a96961cc46fe","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 274.95279%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The more page views a website has, the more traffic it receives.

[{"selector":"#anim-2634d82f-08fe-4f30-9146-958e7212849a [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-34.179687404002955%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0c865d44-6987-41b6-910d-cb8be1132387","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-959e6400-f476-41e8-a24a-de4811b2a834","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 274.95279%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Multiple page views can be created by the same user, that too on the same website.

[{"selector":"#anim-f56f2f88-3fb0-4296-b9f2-82b7ae318f69 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-34.179687404002955%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b5e283e0-bd24-4baa-ba12-0904dfb7fe57","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-097d538d-53cd-48da-b9e9-7adb2ac0f522","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 188.63045%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Page views are often considered as website hits which is not correct.

[{"selector":"#anim-dc730b9f-7d58-4feb-b6ca-9cfa04021b9f [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-33.03801536099286%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2caf202a-1d73-4b75-b2e1-348c4bd58bfe","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-74b1c338-963b-4475-b755-e08be1e2766d","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 188.63045%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Although people often use the term "hit" to describe a page view, technically a hit is recorded for each item that loads during a page view.

[{"selector":"#anim-ffd95383-d77e-4ba1-9987-fb92ab3b848e [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-31.248050821764835%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-9fc900e3-d19d-44ce-989a-d5b390899d8b","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-bba2c32a-d430-43ac-8cda-0243c66e272d","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 126.05915%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

For example, if a web page contains HTML, two images, and a JavaScript reference, one pageview records four hits.

[{"selector":"#anim-9cddd15e-cfcc-41e2-9cc6-6017e51da588 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-31.22618532215235%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8e01bf11-fea3-4bcc-a328-3b7851adfe8e","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-26764560-e320-474f-b88f-0ff96c358d13","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 144.84125%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

On the other hand, if three hundred images are present in a page, then one page view will record more than three hundred hits.

[{"selector":"#anim-bf1c6768-2d76-4078-9ee4-a96e135ac314 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-12.514648210040342%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-67feb219-a706-46ac-8e4c-f7f27ae08e36","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-170fc5eb-8460-4f37-a85f-4a1a78bd4963","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 124.62032%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]
