Questions about how many visitors are on the site every day, how people learn about the site, are not trivial (as it might seem to a sophisticated user). In fact, for "newbies" in the creation and promotion of sites, this issue is one of the most important, since it is very difficult to "promote" a site on the Internet without an analysis of traffic.
Instructions
Step 1
To count the number of people who visit your site, you can use a service called "Liveinternet". It is quite simple: first you need to register (this procedure will not take much time), fill in some fields, and then select the type of counter. After that, you will receive the javascript code; you will place it on those pages of your site that will have to participate in statistics. Place your code so that it is strictly between the and tags. However, it should be borne in mind that this counter may have its own characteristics, for example, when inserting it into a blog (after all, everything depends on the platform).
Step 2
The above method is the easiest to use. But the most widespread is the "Google Analytics" system, because its possibilities are much wider. In order to be able to use this system, you must first create a Google account. The installation of the java code itself is no different from the installation described in the first step: after receiving the code, insert it into your site.
Step 3
There are other options that can be used to determine site traffic. First, take into account the large number of existing both paid and free statistics services (one of them is "SpyLog". In addition, do not forget about special software systems for analyzing attendance (for example, "CnStat" or " Urchin Software from Google "). True, the last one is far from free, it will cost you about $ 3000. If you want to purchase a simpler program that does not require payment, then take a look at the server log visualizer called" Webalizer ".
