davidverissimo Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Can anyone tell me the difference between impressions and page views? I always have a HUGE difference between these two. ThanksThis topic has been covered well in this and other threads. One helpful answer was added by @fabelzim as follows:Impressions = Times your gig has come up in search results.Clicks = Times people have clicked on your gig FROM those search results- nowhere else.Page Views = Total pages views from all sources, including buyer requests, browsing sections, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanito89 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 can you be more explicit please? where do you see impressions and page views on fiverr??.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markp Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I cannot comment with regards to version 2 of fiverr as I have not seen it at all and know nothing about it. I can give you a general idea of what the difference should be. Page views are generally how many times a page is viewed, or landed on, regardless of its a bot, a real visitor or martians. Impressions depend on how how it is defined and calculated and with regards to fiverr this will be down to their own definition and how they have coded this, for example impressions in fiverr’s case could be the number of gigs viewed on your page but I have no idea as I have not seen it. With adsense the impression relate to the impressions on the ads and is different to the page views itself. The same goes for other advertising networks and CPA networks as well.

zoe_21 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 @davidverissimoMy assumptions are:PageViewIs counted each time there’s a visit to your gig/profile AND the visitor doesn’t click on anything. Just looksImpressionsIs counted when your gig appears with other seller gigs ie on a Category page let’s say For example: a viewer searches for ‘translate English to Portuguese’ and your gig appears with other sellersHence:davidverissimo said: I always have a HUGE difference between these two. because, continuing with the example above, there are other sellers offering translation services and yours appears alongside them in the search results :)@Bachas85bachas85 said: I still don't know the difference between clicks and page views. Clicks are counted when a viewer has clicked on anything placed on your gigs ie a video, title, image, live portofolio example :)SUMMARYPageView = appearing aloneImpression = appearing with othersClicks = viewer is interested in something on your page/gig (This is the most important of the three as viewer has made an effort to find out more about your gig by actually clicking something on your Fiverr profile or gig)As I said, these are my assumptions, therefore, doesn't mean they are correct :-BZoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nonontech Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I think Zoe’s answer is correct. Well, Just a thought which came into my head when I look at those icons, the “Impressions” icon on top looks like “Views” and the “PageViews” icon looks like a “Note” or a “New” button/icon 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trafficsender Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Zoe’s answer seems correct apart from the click stat - I think that is about how many people have clicked on your Gig link from all the impressions you have done (while on a page with other gigs).Since the tooltip does say “Clicks From Impressions”.Doesn’t really make sense to count if a user has clicked anywhere inside your gig.

zoe_21 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 @ nonontech and @ trafficsenderHope my 'blind' answer was of some use to you too! I say 'blind' because zoe_21 said: these are my assumptions because I hadn't had access to V2 when I responded to davidverissimo Either way, this question has been asked again on this forum here: http://forum.fiverr.com/discussion/11830/what-are-impressions with an offical Fiverr answer given by Kevinwil!and if you haven't seen the other unofficial attempts to answer this question, you'll find them here on the Fiverr Facebook page: https://en-gb.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151652416214286&set=a.395044219285.168671.214134769285&type=1&theaterI still think that Chris Hardy's interpretation and answers given there are the best though :) Zoe Sheriff's Note: Please do not use shortened links.

paokaliar Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Adding to the bits you know I think its people who have searched (impressions) and actually picked out your gig looking at the profile, that’s the clicks.The page views themselves are a mixture of clicking and just general browsers. I know alot of this was reiterated but thought I might shed some light on the clicks haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

business_sage Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 One of my Gigs currently has more page views than impressions; how can than be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cinschlaack Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 HiIf I can chime in and comment on the question of more page views than impressions and also as, what are typical, decent or optimal levels of these figures? I think one number that is not talked about enough first, is the conversion rate. Anyone?Maybe I get 30 hits to my gig in one month? What is more important to me? How many people came to my site, or how many came and bought? Personally If everyone that came to my gig ordered, that would be ideal. What these numbers explain are these levels.A high amount of impressions would tell me that fiver or the community have a bit or interest in your gig. Impressions also tell you how many times your gig has been displayed to users. This is different from when a user enters certain keywords in a search, and then ends up on your gig pr clicks around the site and ends up on your gig.You could say that impressions are controlled by the site and page-views are controlled by the user. For what if your ad is played to someone on the site, but just as your page loads, the get up to do something else. This would be(to me) an example of an impression and not a page view. If your impressions are low, you may want to ask why. If your page-views are low, you may want to edit your gig some, change the keywords or add a video.Impressions should be in the thousands conversion should be at 5 percent? I would have more interest in impressions.I hope that explanation helped and is not terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malcom123 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Hi there! This is what I thinkImpressions from Fiverr: appearing with others when someone is searching in fiverr, but not necessarely click on you…Click from impressions: this is if someone actually click on your gig from the impressions from fiver…Total pageview: it’s all the people that has visited your gig… if you promote it also on Facebook, twitter… you will have more views here than in “Click from impressions”. With this tool you can see if you promotions out of fiverr are giving you more visitors, potencial buyers… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
