tracking user visits for the purpose of contest

we are looking at different ways to gain traffic and are considering giving away an ipod to registered users who visit and click-through the site. for every click-through they get one chance to win the ipod.

is there a way to track user visits and click-throughs and create a system that pulls all this info together and take all those "chances" and assign a unique # to each "chance" and then have it randomly pick a winner ?

the basic premise is the more you use the site the greater your chance to win. maybe there is a script that does something for this already?

our site is php based.

 

I'm not aware of anything like that being available through an existing script. However, with a little bit of code and a database back-end you should be able to get this together quite quickly.
Are you using any kind of CMS or framework to run that site?

 

we are using an off-the-shelf classifieds/business directory script.

 

Does that script come with a members section so that users can log in? Also, does it have a plug-in interface so that you could develop the required features without modifying the actual source code?
It's kind of hard to help you with the little information your are giving....

 

yes users can login, and i don't know about the second part regarding plug-in integration. thank you for the replies... i am going to post a bid request for this on a freelancer site and see what response i get.
