Specify usage analysis settings

About checking Web site usage

With Microsoft FrontPage 2002, you can view reports of how much your Web site is being used. You can see the number of visits and hits in daily, weekly, or monthly summaries. To view Web site usage information, use FrontPage 2002's Reports feature.

You can use the Site Administration pages to specify how long usage information is kept, whether it is processed in full-day increments, and which administrators (if any) will be notified after usage information has been processed. 

  1. On the Site Administration page, under Configure Usage Analysis Settings, click Change usage analysis settings.
  2. In the Additional Usage Analysis Settings area, do any of the following:
    • If you want to retain usage data for a certain number of months only, click Automatically delete stored usage data after, and then enter the number of months that you want usage data saved.
    • If you want the information processed in 24-hour increments, click Process log file data for full days only .
    • If you would like one or more administrators to receive e-mail notification when usage analysis has completed, enter the administrator e-mail address(es) in the space provided.
  3. Click Submit.

Notes

  • Logging some usage information requires changes to the server software settings. See your site administrator or ISP for information on what types of usage information logging are enabled.
  • If you don't see the Change usage analysis settings option, you are probably in a subweb and need to navigate to the top-level Web site of your server or virtual server. See your network administrator or ISP for more information.
  • Your server administrator must specify an SMTP e-mail server for your Web server to use before you can use the e-mail notification feature.
