Jo,
Is it possible to tailor the reports in Analog such that you are given
statistics for:
- unique visitors
- how long each unique visit is
You can't. The web is stateless so you can't define a 'unique visit' with
any measure of accuracy.
http://www.analog.cx/docs/webworks.html
The help option in Analog describes how calculating unique visits is
unreliabel due to problems like cacheing etc...
How do you generally set your website targets/ test that the site is
performing to standard from month to month... by page request instead?
Personally I don't, the statistics are useful so I can prove how much the
site is being used, where the most used pages are etc. The standard I
ensure is not so much page requests but from performance of the site as a
whole - uptime, page load time etc (which is not got from analog).
The stats are more useful to me by showing the demographics of where the
accesses come from, how people have found the site (search words
report). The stats are useful, but they are not a bible - more of a guidance.
