Sedo "Unique Visitors Per Month" Determined How?

    I have a site listed on Sedo, and it's been there for about a little over a week. I believe that only I have seen it, from three different computers on different networks early last week.

    The sedo page currently shows:

    DOMAIN STATISTICS:
    Visitors to this Sedo Listing: 3
    Unique Visitors per month: 12

    A week ago it said visitors were 3 and "unique visitors per month" were 6 (not 12 as now). Every day or two the "unique visitors per month" has gone up.

    So, what does 12 represent? If it is a prediction, shouldn't it be stable or even dropping since the number of visitors has remained 3 for 7 days?

    3 visitors in 1 week, 3 more weeks to go before a month, estimate for a month is 3 times 4 which is 12

    Hope this clears it up.

    Hi eiso,

    Your idea makes sense. But, why would the "uniques" number continue to rise in spite of no new visitors in the last week? Shouldn't it be falling, eventually to 3 per month if nobody visits during the next 3 weeks?

    swoop the numbers do not really have any relation.

    "Visitors to this Sedo Listing" is the amount of times people have actually gone to the offer page.

    "Unique Visitors per month" is the amount of times people have gone to the main domain. (the one with the parking ads)

    also remember that some visiters might not show a referer in your logs if they are using a firewall or something that blocks there refferal.
