    Can I use Awstats to figure out how customers move around my site? What page that came into and where they go from there? If so how do I do that?

    I prefer using Real Tracker, the deluxe version. It sorts stats into dozens of categories, with a click here or there. It is quick, painless, and there is nothing to learn, install or archive.

    I can compare things like how visitors surfed on this monday, last monday, last friday, the last weekend of the month, each with only one click. The variations are vast. I have been using it for numerous years, and find it the best program for visitor stats on the market. That is based on the number of stat options you have that are only one or two clicks away, the ease of getting them, and the time it takes to get them.

    Yes, you can find out the most popular entry page, exit page, page surfing combination...

    I back it up with Statcounter, which lets me compare trends within all sites I own on a single page. Real Tracker will not do that. So, this is a faster way for me to see if a traffic change is me only, or internet wide, affecting many sites, without having to load page after page of stats, for individual sites. Very handy for answering that burning question, "is it my site, or the web?"

    There are advantages to both, so I use them both. Time is money in this industry, always use the quickest, when all other things are created equal. For quick, I like Real Tracker.

    Awstats is a free tool that is very poor in its statistics. It consistently overinflates numbers by a large number. Webalizer as well. You'll have to invest 50 bucks into a better analyzer.

    No, Awstats doesn't have that functionality. You'll have to use something else to analyze your log files, such as ClickTracks or Google Analytics. ClickTracks just recently released a free version called Appetizer.

    On a related topic. What features does AWSTATS have that I can't already use/see in Google Analytics or IndexTools? The only thing I see AWSTATS has and the Analytics doesn't have is the Robots/Spider counter....?

    Awstats is fine - a little basic but i prefer this than webalizer which never seemed to provide any consistancy.

    I agree with previous comments, you do get what you pay for, but as a free tool, awstats is pretty neat. You can gain a rough prospective on who is seeing what, where and when by looking at the duration time % and grab an overall prospective on what pages are entered and exited. If 80% are staying for less than a minute, then i'd work on the quality of the site before I invested on a "per page" stats program.
