See http://analog.cx/docs/webworks.html for reasons why Analog does not
count visits. If you have something in your log files (like session
cookies) that count visits then Analog can count those cookies. Usually
you would do this by creating a custom log format where you assign the
session cookie to the user data in Analog and then enable the User
Report (USER ON).

Subject: [analog-help] Question about Analog's data vs. Webalizer's
"Visits"

 

Anyone,

 

I am a new Analog user, and have been searching the FAQs and other
places for the answer to this question.

 

I am trying to get data from Analog that can compare with the "Visits" I
used to get from Webalizer, so I can estimate a "conversion" to web
orders on my website.

 

Looking at the Analog report headings:

 

Number of requests

Number of page requests

 

it seems that the ratio of "Number of page requests" to "Number of
requests" (about 25%), is about the same as the ratio of Webalizer
"Visits" to "Hits" that I saw previously using Webalizer.  

 

Therefore, I plan to use the "Number of page requests" as a proxy for
the "Visits" I previously used from Webalizer, for comparison purposes.

 

Does this make sense, or is there something I can do that is better?

 

Thanks!

 

Orion
