How to Track Your Website Visitors
Overview
In the world of online business, understanding your website's traffic is crucial. You need to know how many visitors you receive, how long they stay, where they come from, and which pages they explore. As the saying goes, "If you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it."
Key Metrics
Page View / Page Impression
This is the total number of times a webpage is accessed, irrespective of the number of hits generated.
Unique View
This refers to a page view by a unique visitor or robot. If someone visits your webpage on different days, each visit counts as a unique view for that day.
Referrer
A referrer is an external page that links to your site. By analyzing referrer data, you can identify who's linking to you and understand where your search engine traffic originates.
Tools for Tracking
Counters
You might recall seeing visitor counters on older websites, indicating that you are visitor number, say, 37. These counters, often placed at the bottom of pages, are outdated and unprofessional. Their data is unreliable, so it's best to avoid them.
Trackers
Trackers offer a more advanced way to analyze user behavior and site traffic. They provide detailed insights such as date, time, visitor count, unique visitors, browser type, pages viewed, and referrers.
Using Your ISP's Statistical Package
Most hosting providers offer free tracking software. Popular options include AWStats and Webalizer, both open-source and user-friendly, with graphical interfaces. They provide valuable insights into visitor origins, page views, time spent on site, and browser usage. Before choosing a hosting company, ensure they offer a comprehensive statistical package.
By leveraging these tools and metrics, you can effectively track and manage your website traffic, leading to improved business success online.
