within days after theorizing that if I actually offered my own interpretation of the meaning of the song "Helplessly Hoping" then these random viewers who land on my blog while looking for some insight to it might actually READ my blog, two people actually DID!
Talk about the power of suggestion! Strangely, I feel as if I accomplished something.
(Thankfully, nobody left comments about my interpretaion being stupid or anything)

Huzzah! Fascinating interpretation, by the way!
Also, when you have a site hit for "0 seconds", that means that a person has not actually clicked on your site, that means that when they googled a phrase, Google (or whatever site engine they are using) has pulled up your site as a one of the options to pick if they are interested. If you have a visit for multiple seconds or minutes, then that means that from the Google results, someone has then clicked on your blog.
I need to fix my site meter, I think it no longer works! It's fun to see where visitors are coming from, and what phrases they use to get there!
gee - now I'm a bit bummed! So when Google finds me and I'm one of 279,000 site retrieved and buried on the 30th page of the search results meaning it's highly unlikely that the searcher ever even got that far along, it still counts as a site visit??? Well THAT doesn't make sense. Also, (not to try to discredit you, but...) when you click on my site and instantly recognize that I've added nothing new so you imediately move on - THAT registers as a site visit for 0 seconds. In that case, you didn't google search - you were on one site, clicked the link to mine and then clicked the link to another. I guess I'm having trouble with the idea that Google found me but the searcher didn't but it still shows on my meter.
Question: why do some visits record as being for 0.00 seconds?
That means the visitors are only staying to view a single page and then leaving. The only way that Site Meter knows how long someone is on a site is by the times of each page view. If they only look at a single page and then leave, we don't know how long they looked at the page. If they looked at two pages and left we would know they at least were on the site during the time of the first page view and the second page view. The difference between those two times would be the length of the visit.
so actually - all those people who only visited for 0 seconds may have actually stayed long enough to read something?? - but apparently, they were indeed "on" my site.
