Blogharbor's definitions of Terms Used:


Distinct hosts served

This is a count of the individual computers that accessed at least one page of your blog during that day and month.

 

By "distinct", we mean that if the same computer accesses your blog more than once, it will still count as only one host.

 

Note that while you can use this number to estimate the number of readers you had on a particular day or month, it counts computers, not people. A computer that gets used by several people who all read your blog still counts as just one distinct host.


Bytes transferred


Whenever someone views a page on your blog, information is transferred from the system's servers to their computer. This statistic is a measure of the amount of transferred information for that day and month.

 

To give you a sense of perspective, both Tolstoy's novel 'War and Peace' and a typical medium-to-high quality picture taken on a 3-megapixel camera at 2016-by-1512 resolution are each said to represent 1 million bytes (or 1 megabyte) of data.

 

Total Page Views


This is the number of pages from your blog viewed during that [day and] month.
