Well I'm working with a small sized website, maybe 1000 hits per week.  I'd
like to track which pages are being viewed, which is about it.  I thought
about just incrementing a count in a DB or text file with each page view...
I dunno.  That's why I was asking the group.

*  Advice.....  hhhmmmmm......
*  
*  First off, list out exactly what stats you want and get them 
*  manually from
*  the logs you will be using.  Get an evaluation copy of Web 
*  Trends if you
*  want to get some other ideas.
*  
*  I am assuming that you will be working with the raw logs 
*  from your web
*  server.  My advice on that is DON'T!!!  Use CF to convert 
*  the logs to an
*  ODBC database.  If you have it converted, then great.  That 
*  will make things
*  a lot easier.  Also make sure your web server is set to the 
*  fullest logging.
*  With that you can get more detailed tracking of your users.
*  
*  Other than that, everything will be SQL queries.  But to get your own
*  statistics that make sense will take a lot of work.  
*  Planning will be very
*  in-depth for this project.
*  
*  Oh, one last bit of advice.....
*  
*  "Measure twice, cut once."
