How it works
Whenever someone comes to your site, a Web server records
his activity as he is surfing your site. Later this information can
be extracted from the so called log files and analyzed. This
approach has many flaws. For example, delays in reporting
and low accuracy.
HitLens, does things differently, it tracks visitors and transactions
in real time. It does not distort the statistics. A snippet of its
tracking code is embedded in your pages. This records all
information available on the visitor. This is immediately passed
to our Datacenters, where it is finally converted into analytical
reports that you can view with Web CEO.
