Definitions
A unique visitor is an individual visitor to your website. A unique visitor can make multiple visits and view multiple websites but will only be counted as a single unique visitor:
- A unique visit is counted and assigned to the day of the first visit
- If a unique visitor visits your website from another device, they will be counted again as a unique visitor
- Unique visitors are tracked with a cookie that has an expiration time of 30 days; if the visitor visits your website again after 30 days, they’ll become a new unique visitor
- If a visitor deletes the cookie from their browser or uses a different browser to visit your website, their visit will be tracked as a unique visit
A visit is one browsing session performed by a visitor:
- A visit begins when a visitor lands on your website and ends after 1 hour of inactivity
- Inactivity can mean that the visitor keeps their browser window open on your website or closes their browser window
- Visits do not appear in statistics until the visitor becomes inactive for more than 1 hour
- Each visit from a unique visitor is counted separately; unique visitors can make multiple visits to your website
A page view is recorded each time your website visitor views one of your website’s pages and includes when a visitor refreshes the current page.
