How do you ppl track spiders? I mean wirthout directly looking at logs. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Google Analytics - www.google.com/analytics This is the best way to track "visitors" via keywords, referring sites, etc. Most valuable analytics tool availiable. You can configure it properly to track spiders as well
If you want to get detailed information about your website statistics you need to keep an eye on the logs unless it's a small website then if it's running on Linux go ahead and get an add-on called "Awstats" get this add-on for your cpanel and you will have a full report of the Spiders visits to your site, other wise if you was really asking for the visitors tracking and looking for a simple way to monitor your website traffic then i agree with the Google Analytics, it's helpful, full of features and after all it's simply FREE! Hope i was helpful, REP would be really appreciated ?
