    Default Re: what can I learn about my website usage?

    I just stumbled upon "awstats" on my cPanel. How come when I asked about collecting info about my website traffic, etc nobody mentioned "awstats"? Are "awstats" and "google analytical" similar or are they different animals?

    Default Re: what can I learn about my website usage?

    Ok, I am still trying to set up Google Analytics. I have my tracking code nut I am not sure where to paste it. I read that it should go in the footer and also that it should go before the <body> tag. Which is it.
    Also, it is said that I should put it in the html code. I do not know which files that is. I know where my templates are even though I have not learned how to use them properly yet. But the template files (stylesheet.css files) are stricktly stylesheets, correct? They are not the actual html files. How do I know which files to insert my tracking code into?

    The most likely looking place that I found to put my tracking code is /public_html/index.php. The onlt html tag available was </html>. I placed the code just before that but I do not think it is correct.

    I have posted to the Google Analytics forum but got no help. Can someone tell me where to find a </body> tag in a file that effects all pages?

    quote Google:
    In these cases, we suggest moving the Google Analytics tracking code to the <head> portion of your website, after any meta tags and title tags.
    going on this, :

    includes>templates>YOURTEMPLATE>common>html_header.php

    around line 132
    add your code just before /head

    works fine for me
