   Website hits do not mean much. When I was on the market I got 8 calls from places that never visited my website. Last year I was on the demand side and I would only visit candidates' websites if I wanted to see what they looked like.

   Website hits are too noisy to mean anything. When I was on the market I got hits from places that did not call me and the job I got only checked my website after I accepted the offer.

   Strong correlation between website visits AFTER interviews and before calls for flyouts. Depending on how the department is structured, the full faculty votes on flyouts, so the committee will present a shortlist to the faculty for evaluation. Those are the people likely to visit.

   But everyone else is correct that pre-ASSA it doesn't mean too much.

   If your name sounds like you are a hot white guy, then it is me who gave you the click, sorry. I am not the one who decides interviews.

    How can you tell where are the visitors located? Google Analytics does seem to give that piece of information...
