Hello,
I'm using webalizer. It's quite easy to configure and gives useful stats.
Hope it helps,
Daniel

I'd like a recommendation for a web server logfile analyzer. My web

I've used analog on Windows (where it's pretty hard to use) but I
understand it
runs on Linux too so maybe you can tell me how to do what I want with
it.
Analog is complex to configure and some expertise seems to be needed
to get the
most meaningful results from it.
What I need to do is find the number of unique views of each of my
pages that
wasn't referred from within my site. By unique, if a page gets viewed
twice by
the same ip address or hostname, it would only show up once in my
count. I want
to count only the referrals that come from somewhere else on the web.
Mostly I check my log file using, for example:
grep "GET / " access_log | wc
but that will show both the hits I get from offsite as well as the
referrals
from other pages within my site.
On the other hand, it would also be helpful to see the number of
referrals that
do come from within my site. So if someone comes to a particular page
I write
to attract traffic, and then goes to the pages where I talk about my
services,
that would be helpful to keep track of.
Finally, some people find my pages with the search engines. The
search terms
they user are often encoded in the URL of the referring page. The
syntax for
the URL would be different depending on the search engine. I would
like to know
what the search terms are that people are finding me with.
I don't believe in spamming the search engines, but I do believe it is
very
worthwhile, and the right thing to do, to set out content that is
useful to
people in hopes of driving traffic to my site. But I have a limited
amount of
time to do that and want to be more intelligent about how I do it.
Thanks in advance.
