This are my ways to measure a blog or website growth.

• Total pageviews – this is the number one figure that’s being looked at by most bloggers.
• Unique visitors – this is a better metrics compared to pageviews, IMO.
• Repeat visitors – this should indicate how many regular readers you have.
• Per visitor pageviews – this is the average pageview a single visitor contributes to your site.
• Links in – this is the number of other sites/blogs that link back to your blog. Technorati does that quite nicely.
• Number of comments – consider the total number of comments and the average comment per post.
• Number of posts made – I sometimes look at my total posts for the month and compare that to the figure from the previous month to see if I’m blogging a little more frequently.
• Feeds – Feedburner has that cute little counter to track subscribers to your feeds.
• Ad revenues – most other probloggers use AdSense revenues as a measure for their blog growth.
