Gathering statistics on Web traffic is a valuable way of obtaining
information about visits to your Web site. Web statistical programs
support a wide variety of statistical analyses, allowing you to
generate useful information about Web site traffic.
These statistics can help you understand how well your Web site
is doing, including:
- the number of visitors in a specified time period
- what pages are most popular
- where your visitors came from
- what types of browsers they are using
- how visitors arrive at your site
- which search engine sent them
