Track user interaction


BeanoEFC

Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone,

 

I am developing a website, and I would like to know information about the users interaction.  What I mean is tracking which pages on the website the user visits and the time they visit it.  This will enable me to evaluate how efficient the website is.  For example, how long would it take the user from login to buy a Transformers DVD?

 

My question is how would I go about implementing this into my website? 

 

Any links to relevant sites or books would be greatly appreciated so i could do some background reading.

 

Thanks in Advance

Regards,

-Beano

Why re-invent the wheel? I'm sure you can just use Google's analytics tracker, or an Apache logging parsing software such as AWStats. It basically does more than PHP can, atleast in the scope of one programmer for analytics and should display most viewed pages, exit/entrance pages etc, well, actually hundreds of useful tidbits, many are free.
