Hello, everyone. In this video I’m going to show you how to view website statistics in cPanel using AWStats. What we need to do is we need to first go to AWStats and select it. You will find AWStats in the Metrics panel. Once you’ve located it, click on the icon or the link. This will take you through to an area where you select which domain you’d like to see the statistics for. You will have a list of domains here for all the websites that you have registered on your hosting. As you can see we just have our MO cPanel URL so we will use that.
Once you’ve located the URL that you would like to see statistics for, click View. On the left hand side of the AWStatistics page, it will confirm the URL it’s showing the statistics for. Underneath that is a large list of metrics and options you can use to adjust, filter, and enhance your statistics to what you want to see.
In the main content area, we are met at the top here with a summary of the most useful and used information that you would need to know about your website. As you can see we’ve had 46 unique visitors. The number of visits has been 54. Our page visits says I have 258 hits, 258, and it shows our bandwidth as well. It also gives us dates and the date period for the information this is showing. We can adjust this accordingly.
The information that is shown in the summary is then shown in graph form and in much more detail underneath, and the further down you go the more it goes into detail. We go into hours of the day that the websites are visited. Also we can go further down to browsers, top pages that are visited, and operating systems your users are running under.
As you can see AWStats is a very powerful tool and can really give you detailed information on the traffic that’s coming to your site, when it’s coming to your site, and where it’s coming from. I recommend that you study the figures for your website after it’s been up and running a few months, and use those figures to enhance yourselves and customer satisfaction.
That’s it for this lecture, guys. I hope you liked it and I hope you have a lot of fun and make a lot of improvements, adjustments, and more money with AWStats. Thank you for watching. I’ll see you in the next video.
