How are Pageviews calculated?
A pageview is an instance of a page being loaded (or reloaded) in a browser. Pageviews is the total number of pages viewed by the visitor since the session started. Repeated views of a single page are counted.
To get a better understanding of when and how the Pageviews are calculated, take for example the scenario below:
- A user visits your website. A new session is created and the Pageviews counter is now 1.
- User visits an another page of your website. The Pageviews counter is now 2.
- User reloads the same page. The pageviews counter is now 3.
- User goes back to homepage. The pageviews counter is now 4.
- User leaves your website by closing the browser (not only the tab). The session ends.
- User opens his browser and visits your site again. A new session is created and the Pageviews counter is now 1 again.
