There are 12 major Greek gods and goddesses, known as the Olympians, but there are also many minor gods and goddesses in Greek mythology, making the total number of Greek gods difficult to determine.

A lot. The Greeks worship many gods and goddesses so you can't find the exact number. There are many major and minor Greek gods and goddesses. You have to be more specific, how many Greek major gods or how many minor gods.

The number of Greek gods really varies depending on how you count them. There are the main ones, like the Twelve Olympians (Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, etc.), but Greek mythology includes hundreds more, like Titans, primordial gods, and minor deities, each with their own unique stories and powers.
Janus is a Roman god, and not minor to the minds of ancient Romans.
Minor Greek gods and goddesses had no major followers or cults during the period the Greek god and goddesses were recounted to "classic" mythology.

The difference is quite simple. "Olympians" in reference to gods are the greek gods with thrones on Olympus. "Greek Gods" is used in reference to the Olympians and minor gods.
There are twelve main gods and goddesses(the Olympians), but there are lots of other minor gods and goddesses in Greek mythology.
