    It could be people viewing your profile more than once, or people from the same city (geo visitors will only log 1 pin if they are from the same location). Since you can't see 10 pins on top of each other anyway.

    I think this is an awesome tool for your website. I appreciate you sharing it with us! I have dabbled with web development, but not too extensively. I do marketing for a car dealership and was looking to integrate some sales reports with google maps. I'm interested to visually track our customers to our PMA (prime marketing area.) Do you have any advise on tuturials I could use. Basically I'm looking to pull an excell spreadsheet with addresses and zips and overlay it on a google map. Any help you could give me would be much appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Chris
