subhomoy Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Hello every body I want to track unique visitors of a website but failed to do.. first I thought of tracking their ip but ip changes very frequently. second I thought of tracking their mac address and date from which I can track unique visits but in some server tracking mac address is returning thier servers mac address instead of returning the visitors. so is their any way I can acheive it. I can easily do it with cookies but cookies can be altered by their owner so making this option as in blacklist. so is there any other way to do it... thanks in advance...

joel24 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 you can't get the mac address of the client AFAIK. You'll have to use either IP address or cookies, why would anyone want to alter their cookies for your site?

fastsol Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 Unless you're using the info for something on your site I would just use a service like statcounter They are much better at getting the stats than you will be most likley.
