What is a Pageview?
A pageview is a metric that measures any instance when a user loads a specific web page. Accessing the page counts as a pageview, regardless of the time spent on the page or any actions that are taken.
More About Pageviews
Pageviews are a common metric for measuring the popularity of a page. You will see this metric in most analytics tools and along with sessions and users, can be broadly described as website traffic.
SEO plays an important role when it comes to pageviews. This is because more organic traffic correlates to more pageviews. In fact, this metric is a popular measurement of success in digital marketing.
Pageviews generally include repeat visits from the same source and are best analyzed alongside supporting data. Bots, page refreshing, and immediate bounces will usually still count as pageviews. Therefore, cross-referencing this number with supporting stats, such as unique visitors, time spent on page, and bounce rates can provide more useful insights.
