Chris at WildCatsThree Answers Questions About Cubestat

Last month I had a post, "Blog Stats at Cubestat--What Do They Mean?" about my cubestat stats for my blogs asking for help in interpreting them. Chris over at Ramblings Around The Water Coolerwas kind enough to send me this answer in an email so I wanted to share it so here you go:

I'm guessing the Website worth is similar to a Technorati based blog worth technique that I used for a bit on my blogs. The creator used Technorati's information on links into a blog to come up with a blog worth figure. I don't think it really is what you sell the blog for, but it's a fun tool to watch the figure go up as more sites link to you. After I joined in the World Record Big Bang meme, my blog's worth sored to over $100,000, and I know it's not worth near that.

2nd question about daily ad revenue - I don't know but it could mean what you could expect to make if you ran Adsense or some other ads, based on your blog's traffic etc. But I'm not sure.

3rd question about daily pageviews. Either it's a mistake in their programming or maybe they have it mislabled because it sounds like your actual pageviews total is very close to what they're showing for a day. I do know that pageviews are more important than "visitors" numbers. I read somewhere that pageviews are the stats you want to pay attention to, as it shows the number of pages on your blog that were actually read, and if it's higher than your visitors totals, that means people are looking at many pages within your blog, and not just popping in and leaving right away.

Blog Stats at Cubestat--What do They Mean?--HELP!

Cubestat is a site where you can put in the URL to your blog and get all kinds of data about it for free. I like free and so I tried it with all three of my blogs. It gives so much information, including much that I don't know what it means.

I'd like if someone could explain the meaning of "Website Worth." It said my little blogs were worth approximately $9,000 for my blogspot ones and $13,000 for my PNN one! I am curious to know just who thinks they are worth this and how they arrive at this figure. I can't believe it!

Another thing that floored me is that it lists Daily Ads Revenue at approximately $12, $13 and $18. I don't even have ads or blog for money so I am really clueless as to exactly what this means. I get no revenue from any of my blogs.

Finally, my last question is what the Daily Pageview number is. The report says I have over 4,000 views a day on my blogspot blogs and over 6,000 a day on my Personal News Network (PNN) one. However, how can this be when my blog counters only show around 7,000 for a total? I don't get it!

I first discovered Cubestat through this post
For What It's Worth at Delusions of Grandeur using entrecard. I always like to add some first-time visits when I am dropping cards and this is how I came across this blog.
