Web site traffic statistics software and web log analyzers are two of the most powerful tools a webmaster has available to them. Once configured, web site traffic and usage logs are parsed by the system automatically to create complex statistics and find trends within their their web pages.

PlanetHTTP offers you one of the best log analyzers available today. AWStats is our favorite web site traffic usage statistics software here at PlanetHTTP, because it provides data in an attractive, easy-to-read format. See for yourself! Unlike the vast majority of other hosting companies out there, we allow for reverse DNS resolution in our implementation of AWStats allowing all our clients the added bonus of having geographical data about their visitors available.
