A Word About Web Access Logs

Hello, blog readers. I am the Product Manager for WebPAC at Innovative Interfaces. A quick word on web log analysis. You may have already seen the link on CSDirect, our customer service portal. If not, I would like to call attention to it:

Many people here at Innovative worked hard to make this a useful feature for analyzing visitor traffic to your catalogs. What I have tried to do is write an introduction to this feature, just to help people get over the initial learning curve. I would also like to thank the libraries that invested hours or days of time trying out the procedures. You have helped make the process easier for everybody!

I would love to hear how you are using your web access logs and I invite you to post your comments here. I also expect people to find new features within log analysis. If you want to share what you discover, we have a new for you WebPAC Wiki (password required).

Until later…

    Slightly off topic, but the Wiki — I thought it was primarily for the log analyzer and since we haven’t upgraded yet to Rel. 2007 I didn’t bother to check it out.

    I didn’t realize it was a general purpose WebPAC Wiki until I just logged in now. Judging from the small amount (but very useful) info on it, I don’t think I’m alone in not being aware of it.

    Thank you for your feedback on the blog and wiki. The wiki is a new area so I hope its purpose will be clearer as we pack more reading matter into it!
