Installing traffic counters on the site allows you to receive data on where the visitor came to the site from, what pages he viewed and how long the viewing lasted.
Attendance statistics are data on the number of website visitors for a certain period of time, as well as information on what requests and where visitors come from. An analysis of the traffic statistics of an Internet resource is necessary at any stage of promotion, since it allows you to evaluate the effectiveness of SEO-optimizers, as well as find out which pages or sections of the site are of the greatest interest to visitors and how long visitors stay on the site.
