The metric counts people, and the same person counts once a day. Views as such are never totalled.

On weekends with an event in the house we are noticeably busier, and almost none of that shows in the profile. Views sit at roughly the same level as on a quiet Tuesday.

What exactly is this metric counting?

It counts people, once per person per day. Google describes views as the number of unique visitors who viewed your profile, and the same help page states that a person can only be counted once a day and that multiple visits on the same day do not count.

That behaviour is exactly what flattens a weekend. A guest who checks the route in the morning, looks for the phone number at midday and goes back to the photos in the evening appears in the statistics as one person, the same as somebody who glanced at it once.

On top of that the count is split by surface and device. Search and Maps are counted separately, mobile and desktop as well, so comparing two weekends only holds up when you put the same breakdown side by side. The headline total will not carry it.

What your full weekends actually show up in are the actions, the calls, the direction requests and the clicks through to the website, and beside them the numbers from inside the house. In the first conversation [Illia BizTech](https://illia-biztech.de/en) settles the one figure that carries as a monthly number for you, so you do not spend a year watching the wrong curve.
