PlantSearchOnline.com viewer traffic information

Wikipedia "hits" definition (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_analytics)

Hit - " A request for a file from the web server. Available only in log analysis.
The number of hits received by a website is frequently cited to assert its popularity,
but this number is extremely misleading and dramatically over-estimates popularity.
A single web-page typically consists of multiple (often dozens) of discrete files,
each of which is counted as a hit as the page is downloaded, so the number of hits
is really an arbitrary number more reflective of the complexity of individual pages
on the website than the website's actual popularity. The total number of visitors
or page views provides a more realistic and accurate assessment of popularity. "

Alexa.com (subsidiary of Amazon.com) traffic ranking of PlantSearchOnline.com

is around #800,000 worldwide, and #140,000 in the USA alone, in the top 2.5% of ranked sites. Ranking is based on site traffic- volume of Alexa registered visitors, total visitors, and page views) during the last three months. (Google is #1, Facebook is #2, Wikipedia is #8, etc.) A website using Alexa has its ranking number in a toolbar at the top of each web page. There are about 30 million sites with Alexa toolbars, of about 4 billion websites total worldwide.
