WebLogs: Keeping Track Of Visits To Your Web Site

Glossary Items:

browser

domain

Tracking visitors to your site used to require combing through cryptic logfiles, an often time-consuming and eye-straining task. Cape.Com provides an alternative with Weblogs, a graphical logfile analysis tool accessible from your web browser.

Weblogs examines your logfiles for you and gives you statistics such as total visitors, pages viewed, visits by domain, and much more. An invaluable tool to effectively maintain and manage your site, Weblogs are easy to use and free to all domains hosted with Cape.Com.

Recent enhancements include Agent, Referrer, and Keyword reports for all Virtually Hosted sites.

Please be aware that if you host your website with Cape.Com, you must setup your log files before they can start tracking the data. Please see the "Setting Up and Using WebLogs" link below.
