Visitor Tracking

8 April 2010

Many customers have asked us to put a visitor counter on their pages.

This explains how to set up a collection of advanced visitor statistics for your website(s).

USE GOOGLE ANALYTICS FOR VISITOR TRACKING

We have added the possibility to use Google Analytics with your websites. It is a free service from Google. It can get you various detailed reports about website visitors. For example, you can see how many people visited the site each day and so on. These reports with graphics are much more advanced than a simple visitor counter.

The difference between a counter and Google Analytics system is huge. Counter gives you a just a number of visitors. Google Analytics lets you know how many people visited your site each day, which pages were most popular, how visitors interacted with your website, which countries they were coming from, what are your visitor trends with time, which search keywords they used to find you, and much more!

HOW TO SET UP VISITOR TRACKING

To set up visitor tracking on your website you need to:

1. Create a Google Analytics account.
2. Obtain a code snippet from Google Analytics.
3. Copy and paste the code snippet into the "Google Analytics" area in the admin section of your website.
4. Wait for at least 24 hours and then use your Google Analytics account to see your stats.
