How do "impressions" and "page views" differ?
I always see my page impressions are less compare to page views, how do they differ? Is it google adsense page impressions or hubpages has its own page impression for Hubpages ad program?
Page mpressions are unique page views from different visitors. And the 'page views' show how many times your page has been viewed even if it is from the same visitor.
And a note on the adsense and the hp pay. Adsense says impressions as unique visitor and also tells you clicks.
HP's pay shows you page views on the my account etc. But you don't get paid from this, you get paid from the unique impression - that isn't from hopping. All hopping is ad-free and does not count what so ever towards pay.

Normally when I see a hyperlink it takes me to another page or opens another page in a new window. This is usually a...

I just disabled Hubpages ad program last week to test out how much I would earn/lose if I just kept Adsense. My page views are not counting--the articles viewed showing on my account in Hubpages is more than what Adsense is picking up, by a large number. I checked and Hubpages is linked...

Why do I show 0 page views at Google Adsense, but 200 and some impressions. This doesn't make sense to me. Google Adsense never shows the same page views or impressions that I show elsewhere. Can anyone help me understand this?
