Website analysis tools

[WomenXtra]

Hi All,

could you please direct me to agood analysis tools?
I need to know:
- how long does each visitor spends on the site?
- the path analysis?
- the number of unique visits?
- the country they are coming from..

and all the other relevant info needed to build an idea how to improve the business.

Looking forward to get some feedback.

Thanks,
T

You should be able to get all that from your host - for example we use cPanel and it allows us to use Webalizer, Urchin stats etc to display graphically the user stats.

You could also sign up for a free statcounter.com account, which is very comprehensive.

As for how to use that to improve your site well I'll leave that to those more adept at explaining.

Hope this helps.

Hi Tala

Statcounter is great! Webalizer is ok, but not as comprehensive. Then there are things such as Web CEO which is free to a degree but I think the site traffic analyzing bit costs not sure how much.

To be honest, I think Statcounter would suit you down to the ground. Even my site stats which are Awstats do not provide me with the path analysis which is really, really useful.

Hope that helps!

Another vote for statcounter, it has come highly and widely recommended on various forums and I will be using it with our new website.
