See where your traffic is coming from right now - Adsense Tip.

A lot of people might already know about this trick but usually I check my Adsense account at Noon and then before I go to sleap, and sometimes I notice that a certain site of mine get several clicks and I wonder where is the traffic coming from.

Well if you use Awstats from your Cpanel you will notice that it does not update automatically, it usually has a 24 hour delay, so you basically would have to wait until the next day to see where the traffic was coming from and from where did those clicks came from.

Well here is a nice trick to get instant Awstats updates.

1. Log in to your cpanel account.
2. Open file manager
3. Go to your TMP folder
4. Go to your AWSTATS folder
5. find the file AWSTATS.YOURSITENAME.COM.CONF
6. Edit that file
7. Find this line using CTRL + F
AllowToUpdateStatsFromBrowser=0
8. Change the value 0 to 1 and SAVE
9. Close the window and now open your AWSTATS
10. Now on the upper side of the screen you will see a link that says: Update Now. Click on it and YOU GOT YOUR STATS LIVE!

Like I said this is not a new trick, some people does not even use Awstats but for people that use Awstats it works great.

 

thanks dude for the very nice tricks! for who using the Awstats....this would help you guys.. thanks again netmaster123

 

nice tip, will try it now.

 

Heh, i have it by default =1 my host did it already i suppose

 

Here is another trick - if you get paid fairly well, your traffic is coming from USA/UK ;

 

That is actually very true, usually when I see .01 clicks and check my stats, my traffic is coming from other than the USA or UK countries.

Good point.

Thanks that was very helpful.

 

Aha, that's a nice tricks, but I wonder if it influence the site's speed? Anyone gives an ideal about this? My site has a huge ammount of traffics.

 

Most off the Host gives an Auto Update. Its an Awsome Tool to track Visitors

 

? Don't you guys use Google analytics? I fall in love with it every single day

 

I like Google analytics, but when I install a new site I do not automatically put the javascript, Awstats comes preinstalled with any host, so most people actually use it.

 

Great tips for newbies

Although this is old news for me Google Analytics is better because you can exclude the traffic coming from your ip
