Building Your Web Site

Measuring Your Site's Traffic with the E-List.Net control panel

Once your site is up and running, you'll want to learn which pages get the most traffic and which get overlooked. The E-List.Net control panel gives you those statistics.

Knowing how much traffic your site receives and what pages get it can give you a clear idea about what changes you should consider making to your site's organization, design, and content.

For example, if you find that a particular page gets little or no traffic, you might place links to the page on other, more well-trafficked pages. You might also alter your site's navigation to make the page easier to find, or change the page's content to make it more interesting or accessible.

Among the statistics that the control panel shows you are, the most visited pages on your site for the current month and the number of hits each page received. It offers more extensive statistics as you study the pages and click around.
