Incoming! (Viewing Your Site Stat Report)

You can keep track of how many people visit your website, when they come, which search engines they utilize to reach your web pages, what keywords they type in the search engines and much, much more. Analyze this information for insights on how to increase your search engine ranking, to know which pages your visitors like best.

My client’s using WildwoodHosting.com have access to a powerful tool called Awstats. Instructions are as follows:

  • In your browser’s GoTo field, type your domain name followed by a forward slash and the word c-panel (www.yourdomain/cpanel)
  • Use your user name and password to log in.
  • In the C-panel, scroll down to the section titled “LOGS” and click on the icon for “Awstats”.
  • Click on “VIEW”
  • You will find a long page of colorful reports each useful in its own way.

If you are not a WildwoodHosting.com client, ask your web developer if there is a similar report generated by your hosting server.
