So it's been bugging me for a while that Sitemeter registers hits to my main page, but not to individual entries. Like if somebody linked to this here post you're reading right now, and you clicked on it but didn't proceed to the main page because I suck, it wouldn't register as a hit. I'm not all that interested in the raw numbers, which will never be very high, but it's always fun to see who's linking to you and what they're saying. Well, not always.
Anyway, is there something I can tweak so that a hit to anything under the jimtreacher.com domain gets counted? Or is there some other web-counter that would do the job? Thanks in advance.
Update: Okay, I think it's fixed. Thanks, Ken!
Posted by Jim Treacher at January 14, 2004 10:29 PMDude, just take that sitemeter code and put it at the bottom of your template for "individual entries" and any other templates you got -- archives, whatever.
I just stuck 'em all at the bottom of all my template deals, right before the /body /html deals. I've got regular stats through the server, but sometimes they go out, and sometimes sitemeter is shit, but between the two I have a fairly semi accurate idea of traffic, broken links, dead pages, etc. (Er, now if I'd only pay attention to these things, maybe I wouldn't have a million dead / wrong links and pages all over my stupid 1999-era site.)
Posted by: Ken Layne at January 14, 2004 11:34 PMYou lost me at "Dude." No, just kidding. But not by much, because I'm a big dolt when it comes to this crap. Well, there's the Main Index and the Master Archive Index. I'll add it to the Master Archive Index and see what that does. Thanks, man!
By the way, I just got the Corvids album today. Review to come.
