Brian, It would be pretty straight forward to tag the pages with Google Analytics javascript.
You would then have very detailed information regarding exactly which pages are getting traffic, how much traffic, how the pages were found (e.g. search vs. referring link), which keywords were being searched for when finding your pages, where the traffic is coming from (e.g. which referring sites), navigation paths within your site, which pages they leave your site from (i.e. didn't find what they were looking for?), what the geographic composition of the traffic is, browser capabilities, etc. You could track to your heart's content, refining and shaping the UKB to maximize the user experience. Or, you could just track the very basics to have an idea of general page popularity and overall traffic patterns. Opening an account is free and can be done from the link below. Note that while most of the information regarding the site is targeted towards advertisers selling a product on their own websites, this is not a requirement and Google Analytics is used effectively by blog writers and non profit sites too. P.S. If you were serious about ever writing that book that you alluded to in another post, this information would quickly tell you what to include in your chapters!
