I'm trying to more accurately track visitors on one of my sites. Most of
the visitors are from offices where they share an IP address. So, from one
IP address, there might be 10 or more individual users. Instead of tracking
unique IP addresses, I'd like to be able to track:
the number of unique vistors per month
the number of first time visitors (first time ever) per month
and then page hits per month for each individual page as well as the site
total
When it comes to tracking users, the Apache logs seem to track only IP
addresses so 10 users sharing the same office IP address only seem to
register as 1 unique visitor. I was using cookies to track individual
computers, but if the user does not accept the cookie, the counts start to
go way off.
Hopefully someone has some ideas on how to more accurately count individual
computers rather than just individual IP addresses.
Thanks
