You can get quite a bit of information about your visitors without having to use a third party tracking software. I'll outline the PHP commands you can use to capture some of this data. The details you capture can be saved into a database, and retrieved later to check your site's performance and user details. The following information is captured using the server variable ($_SERVER) which is available from PHP 4.10 onwards.

Capturing click data is useful when you want to look at trends such as pages that are looked at the most, or amount of traffic.
To do this you would need to call the function below each time a page is loaded to capture the click data such as user ip, page title and url. Ofcourse you can capture more info here, for example date.
Further on you would need to save the click data in a database or text file (for example a csv file ready to be viewed in excel).

Learn how you can create a small and simple PHP script to log your visitors activity into a file. You just need to add 1 line to each of your page to enable logging and the statistics will be collected in a html file so you don't have to setup any database for this task.
