| Anyone know anything about monitoring software and servers? I am building some websites which I plan to use as portals. I was thinking of buying some website monitoring software so I know how many people have logged onto my websites and when.
I was thinking of using a monitoring software called Whos Visiting but I could not download it because I needed Internet Information Server 4.0.
My questions is do you recommend any monitoring software and servers? In order to answer my questions you do need to consider certain facts:
1. I will have about 12 websites, these websites are not big they just acts as a link to other websites. Some websites are just one page.
2. I am trying to start up a business and eventhough I want a decent server I dont want to spend too much.
3. The tools I am using to build my websites are provided by certain companies and they will also put my websites on line and host it. If my websites are being hosted by someone else apart from me this means they are using their server to host my websites. If I buy a server and the monitoring software will it be impossible for me to use them on my websites since my websites are already being hosted by someone else? I hope these questions make sense basically I want means of verifying traffick on my sites just in case these websites providers try to rip me off.
Lastly is it possible to use monitoring software without a server? If you can help I would really appreciate it. |
