- HITS VS VISITORS
- There is much concern (and controversy) surounding hits
and visitors. Putting a counter on your page might be a good
idea. In general, most counters will give you actual visitor counts and not "hits." Hits are requests to the server that hosts your page. So if your page
has several graphics, each one must be requested from the server.
It's the number of visitors to your site that you and your clients
should be are likely concerned with, not hits. (After working with many different tracking programs, it may take a good deal of time to interpret the individual statistics, it might be worth the time invested to study statistics on a regular basis. Each program has its own unique features and methods. Be familiar enough with yours in order to convey the stats intelligently - or not.)

- EXCHANGE LINKS
- Another effective way to promote your site is by offering
to exchange links with another site that serves your target
audience. You simply visit the site and email the webmaster
requesting a link exchange. You will place a link on your site
promoting his/hers in exchange for his/her link on their site
to yours. So visitors to your site have an oportunity to visit
their site and likewise visitors to their site are now aware of
yours. In this way you may be able to benefit from visits to
another established site as you are building yours. See also: Awards.
