I tend to agree that the site duration information is a little pointless, but it's unavoidably required by the client.
Can you think of any way possible that I can customise Analog to produce this information? Otherwise I will have to opt for WebTrends, but I really want to avoid this if there is any other way!!! Because I really like Analog and WebTrends can be a little slow and annoying! Is there any way I can get Average Visit Length information from Analog...? How easy would it be to customise the code to enable this report...?

The key question is - what difference does it make to you as the site owner? What will you do differently if it counts as 12 visits per day, or as one 24 hour long visit? He's not using exactly the same resources no matter which definition you choose. > > If you don't plan to do anything about it, then it's not information, it's just noise. > > Aengus > +------------------------------------------------------------------------ > | This is the analog-help mailing list.
