The motigo webstats counter analyzes the website traffic of the page where the counter code is inserted (this is usually the index page, where most visitors arrive in your site). However, if you are interested in measuring the total traffic of every single page in your site, you can do it also, adapting the webstats statistics to your personal needs. Here are two examples of how to use motigo webstats.
1) You want to see traffic numbers for all pages of your website in one statistic page:
In this case, insert the same counter code on all pages of your website (one simple way to do it is to insert it on a template which is used in all pages, this avoids the work of inserting the code manually in every page).
Using the counter this way, will show total number of visitors to your website in your statistic page (the traffic of all pages will be measured).
2) You want to have detailed statistics about every page of your website:
If you need individual statistic details for different pages of your website (for example, if you want to compare traffic between the pages), just create a different webstats counter for each page. Make sure that you insert the different counter codes on the different pages. This way, each page is measured individually and you get detailed information about the visitors of each page (where do they come from, how did they find the page, etc.). To compare traffic volume between the pages, you can use the option “compare counters” on your webstats overview.
PS: You can only use the same counter on different pages of the same website / domain (eg, on www.xy.de, www.xy.de/page1, www.xy.de/page2, and so on). It is not allowed to use the same counter on different domains (e.g., to use the same counter on www.xy.de and www.vz.de as this would falsify site statistics).
In the Admin Area of your guestbook you will find 5 different options to personalize your guestbook and make it look exactly like you want it to.
Select Layout: Here you can choose a template for your guestbook that will set its basic colours. Motigo offers you more than 15 colour combinations to choose from. Just click on the template name for a preview.
Customize layout: Once you have chosen the basic colour set of your guestbook, you can start the fine-tuning work (of course, if you are happy with the template you have selected before you do not have to use this option). This option allows you to customize basically every aspect of your guestbook individually (from font size to link colour or size of the message boxes). You can change your guestbook’s layout anytime.
Icons: The motigo guestbook comes with icons for e-mail address and homepage of the visitors. These icons can be replaced by your own icons, matching the design of your website. Here you can upload your icons to your guestbook.
Smilies: Would you like to give your visitors the possibility of using smilies in their messages? No problem. Here you can upload as many smilies as you like to your guestbook.
HTML-Areas: Your motigo guestbook has two HTML-Areas (top and bottom of the guestbook page). Here you can use your own HTML-Code and insert links, images, banners, logos, widgets… You can also use the HTML areas to give your guestbook the same background image or style as your website.
