CPM = Cost Per Thousand (M is the Roman numeral for 1,000). The fee an advertiser pays per thousand ad impressions.

FAQ = Frequently Asked Questions. FAQ is a web document that answers common questions about a topic. See Andy's breakthrough article at: cyberwalker.com/article/97.

Traffic is classified as direct if there's no referrer (previously visited site) reported by the web browser.

Google defines it nicely: "Bounce rate is the percentage of single-page visits."
