I'm new to DG and one of my galleries has the following stats in the last day:

Hits=1334
Ratio = 498%
Bytes= 72.5 MB.

What does this mean? Is that good?

Note there is I think 81 pictures in the gallery.

I've tried to advance search the terms and but just am not finding the answer.

Thanks in advance for your help....Orlin:thumb

    Hello Orlin,
    Maybe this will clear this question up for you.


    Hits= the number of "views" during the month. As you saw in that page Andy linked you to, if you are using Smugmug style, viewing one gallery page will add 1 medium and 15 thumb views, for every page viewed.

    Ratio= the ratio of non-thumb sized views versus thumb size views. In other words if you have 1000 thumb views, 200 small, 100 medium, 200 large views and 0 Original views (500 total non-thumb views) the ratio would be 50.

    Bytes= bandwidth used by those viewing your images.

    Please let us know if you are still unclear about stats.

    Have a great day Orlin :-)
