How do I get good stats (unique visitors) on each page of a website in a format that is easy to share?



User: Daniel B. 11 years ago
Howdy,

I am truing to start a coupon website. Local businesses pay me (hopefully) to host their coupon online. (The website is here: here! (Very much a work in progress. Click on "Mr. Pfranks to get the idea.)

I want to be able to tell clients (businesses that bought coupons/ads) "x number of people viewed your coupon online last month." That's it. I have no need for anything else. I just need to give them a concrete number like that.

So, how do I do that?
-my web host has a variety of stats, including Awstats, which is open source. I have found no way to access that data though in a way that's easy to show clients.
-I'm on Google Analytics (new to it) and the data is there, I'm sure, but I wouldn't know an automated way to get it to clients.
-I've been playing with some free stat counters, thinking they could be tiny and unobtrusive on businesses' pages. The idea worked for a minute, until I found out that the counters counted the whole site. Statcounter looks promising https://statcounter.com/pricing/

Anyway, that's where I am! Any guidance would be very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Dan

With or without Everweb, you may want to search for solutions.

I used these words to search :

show counter viewed pages on webpage with google analytics

And :

google analytics api to extract visited page

Use your own keywords.

Once you found the answer, paste the code in a HTML Snippet.

Wouldn't it be a lot easier to create a hit counter for each page using one of the many free online services? Then you would have a counter like this...

http://everwebcodebox.com/widgetbox-demo/counter.html

... and the client would just browse to the page containing their coupon to see the number of hits.
