AbleLogger Pro

Overview: AbleLogger comes in two flavors: the free AbleLogger Lite and the commercial AbleLogger Pro. Each are PHP/MySQL programs which provide a streamlined interface for logging visits to your website and tracking visitation patterns or specific users. Gone is the guesswork from marketing campaigns and tracking the effectiveness of e-commerce applications! Simply follow users as they travel through your site and see what works and what doesn't. An emphasis has been placed on making AbleLogger as "light weight" as possible, with very little processing necessary to log each page view, so as not to impact the delivery of your site content.

AbleLogger Pro adds numerous features above and beyond the free AbleLogger Lite, such as detailed graphical statistics, auto-banning of IP addresses, database management, search features, improved sorting and display, and much more. The admin script is organized for maximum effectiveness, with visits organized in intuitive fashion. These additions help take you to the next level of site management, providing you with a greatly increased overview of your visitors.

AbleLogger Lite is not intended to be an all-encompassing stats package, rather a tracking tool to provide the level of useful analysis missing in many full-scale stats packages. AbleLogger Lite is best used in conjunction with a full featured stats package such as AbleLogger Pro (or your own server stats, if available) that displays things like page views and bandwidth by month, top referers, browser stats, most popular pages, error pages, etc.
