I was just updating it when I glanced at the hit-ometer,.

.. It read off 1000+ hits.

So, I guess,. happy 1000+ hits to my site... Poor thing deserves it as much as I change it around.. which, is set for some more make overs when ever I find the time...

Since I'm here and wish not to waste anyones time, I got four new additions to the site thanks to Moneo to announce also. Check those out so you have a lil something productive to do here...

Enjoy!

Z!re, I hope you're kidding, because there's no way Plantasy Studios hit 1 million hits.

As far as I know, the only QB site to ever surpass 1 million hits is QBasic.com, and it took years of getting 100,000 to 200,000 hits/year to do it.

No, I'm not joking.. But it's not a QB site.. And Plantasy site has been up for 10 months.

It has slowed down lately, only about 20'000 hits per month now, but we had over 200'000 for a while.

Note that hits are not the same as visitors, and that visitors are not the same as unique visitors..

We get around 1000 unique visitors per month..

So, 1 mil hits is actually pretty.. "easy".. to get..

Sorry, I confused "hits" and "visitors". I think Rattrapmax6 did too.

Hits are not a useful means of guaging a site's popularity... each time someone visits an issue of QB Express, for example, it will register as like 80 hits (because of all the images + 2 style sheets). Meanwhile, someone who makes a PDF or ZIP magazine would only register one hit if someone downloaded it.

Unique visitors is the useful statistic.

Yup.. but, Rattrapmax6's counter is on the main page, so it gets roughly 1 hit per visit..

And 1000 visits is pretty good..

Yeah and AOL called it a Hit-o-meter,.

.. And, yeah it's only linked to the main page (as Z!re said) making hits and visits equal,... But, mistake corrected,.

On a further note.... For my next update, I'm between 1) user set-able themes, or 2) making the themes change depending on time of day of the visiting browser* .... Any suggestions?

With JS stuff ofcourse.. Most likely I'll think up more and more strange ones... ^_^

*Morning- Sun Rise theme || Noon- Sunny day theme || || Night- Night theme,.. ect...
