    Hey,

    I'm not just doing this to pimp my little boy's site.

    My traffic calculator from my hosting company has been down all day. I was checking out some Google Adsense numbers about an hour ago and everything looked normal. Then I went back to Adsense an hour later and his fan site had a traffic spike of over 1,000 people.

    How do I find out where they came from (ie. search engine, and what they typed in the search box)? He doesn't really get any traffic normally.

    The last time this happened, I never got the information. My host uses AWSTATS, and I have never bothered to place Google Analytics or anything on his fan site.

    The page that has received the bulk of this traffic is: http://www.lsufootballfreak.com

    I don't know where else to put this thread.

    Thanks for helping!
