keyword tracking

using analog to see which search keyword was used

[madrasmarkets]

Hello People
I use analog to analyse my log files. Though I have set the reports option to 'all' I am not able to get the search words reports - to find which words customers used to come to my website. This is my log file's format :

#Fields: date time c-ip cs-username s-ip s-port cs-method cs-uri-stem cs-uri-query sc-status cs(User-Agent)

2)I am also not able to check for statistics for the month of July though the log files for that month are present.

Analog is the best.

For the Search Words report, get the whole list of reports from "big-config" or "config-big" (or whatever it's called). This list allows you to specify ON or OFF for each report. It also allows you to set the floor for each report, e.g. "-100" means top 100 items in the report, or you can specify all items over X.

On the July files: Make sure they are in the same directory as your other (June?) files. They probably are, but double-check. Then look at the "Input file" specification. I think it is YYMMDD format. If so and yours starts with "0306," then it will only pick up June.

Analog is great. It has its own logical consistency. Play with your config file, and try out different settings. The official Analog help is a little bewildering. In part, because it follows its own strict logic. I look back at my previus config files to see how I did something before.

The learning curve really is not too bad. Stay with it. It's well worth it.

From your log format I'm assuming you're using IIS web server. You are not getting keywords report because you are missing referrer in your logs - cs(Referer) . Add it, and you will get a fe more reprot like referring url's etc. Cheers
