 |
|
One small question:
In the server stats section of the Abyss console, I was wondering if the "hits" counted are true hits to my site. They (the hits, html hits) seem awfully high and do not coincide with my counter I installed on my web page. I reset the stats page, installed the counter, went back to look at the stats page and it said I had 12 hits in those 30 seconds. I went back to my site and the counter was at 2. Hmm....
Sincerely,
Shawn.Berg |

shawn.berg,
A hit is any request that your server get. So if your page has 10 embedded images, any person browsing it will generate 11 hits (1 for the HTML+10 images). The counter installed on your page will only count the HTML page hits. To see all the activity your server gets, monitor log/access.log file, you'll see there all the requests.

I HIGHLY recomend that you download FUNNEL WEB ANALIZER (just do a google search)...It's totally free and is as powerful as Webtrends.
all you do (once installed), set a few parameters and point it at your access.log file.
You'll get a TON of stats from visits, hits, trends, popular pages on your site, etc... too many to list...
get that tool!!!

Jon-Paul,
Thanks greatly for that Funnel Web Analyzer tip. That program is fantastic. Could you answer a question for me though?
I use DynamicDNS to update my IP link. Since I use that I get my DYNDNS link as my referrer on every web visit and cannot get the actually refering link. Can this be corrected?

It seems that every time a user accesses your site, he/she contacts DynDNS, and DynDNS contacts your server. In this case, you couldn't correct it. However, when a user clicks on a link on your webpage, is it a direct link to a page, or does it go through DynDNS?
The only way I can think of correcting this is to use a real DNS service.
