Search engine and referrer tracking: Web-Stat was developed to help you understand how visitors find your site.

The 'Referrer Tracker' records the number of visitors sent each week to your site by all search engines and referrers. It allows you to see how your referencing/marketing strategy works over the long haul.

On the example graph below the blue line shows the traffic sent by Google to our sample site, week by week, over the last year ; dark red is the pay-per-click engine Adwords, light red is Yahoo !, and so on.

The referrer tracker automatically detects any referrer that links to your site (for instance a search engine, an outside site with a link to your URL, a particular newsgroup, email, etc). It also detects and records keywords used to find you (see example keyword report, above on this page)

In the case of search engines, Web-Stat will also record automatically the keywords that visitors used and allow you to duplicate the searches that lead to your site. It will then give you a summary, by search engine, of your most popular keywords.

Geo location of all visitors: With its geo-location tool Web-Stat pinpoints the exact location of all your visitors, down to the country, state, city and zip code. The results are then presented on clickable maps of the world, Europe, North America, South America, Africa and Australia. Note that Web-Stat geo-location is by far the most precise available in the industry today.

Ease of use: We aim for stats that make sense, that are simple, and that can be read and understood in a few minutes. Look at our sample stats page to find out in one quick glance all you need to know about the state of your traffic.
