Hello and Help -
The host of my website includes webtrends reporting. My website has many referring links as I host virtual tours for campgrounds on my site.

Under Webtrends reports for referring sites I can get the information as to what campgrounds are being looked at by the number of visitors being referred.

The Question is how do I get the information as to the number of visitors that took a particular campground's tour? I want to know the visitors that are coming through my site, not being referred through the campground's site...Currently I am looking at Top Directories total Visitors and Subtracting the corresponding Visitors coming from the referring site, but I don't think these numbers are correct.

If you need the web address to understand let me know, I am not sure it is proper etiquette to place it here.

Thanks!

I don't know exactly how your site is made, and I haven't used Webtrends since around 2000 but...

Webtrends as a log analyzer SHOULD be able to report on the virtual tour files directly (assuming they are hosted on your server). It MAY be that the file extension that your virtual files have is excluded from the reports, butu I am pretty sure that is an option, not a necessity.

If you can't see these directly, you could always link to the tours via a tracking URL... so instead of linking to tour-of-nice.wmv link to tour-of-nice.htm which then redirects to the .wmv file (or whatever extension it is).

Clunky - but should work.
