Logfile Analysis
Infovis on the pitfalls of analyzing log files: Summarising, attending just to the logfile analysis, you can't really know the number of visitors, the number of visits nor the identity of the users. You can't establish reliably the paths they have followed within the website. As a corollary of this you can't know for how long they have been reading a web page either. Although this information could be incomplete, you can reach a great deal of conclusions just by studying a logfile. For example.- Which concepts that aren't present at the web are being sought after by our users
- Which concepts that do exist aren't found.
- Which zones of our web site are most probably the most active ones.
