Audience Profiling
Hi, I'm currently planning a project that requires Audience Profiling. Basically the administrator of the website will be able to track the user's movement, like the most frequent visited pages of the site, number of times the user used a certain facility, etc. Any idea how do I go about doing that using CF ?

Re: Audience Profiling
Depends on what do you really want. BTW you can see www.atg.com about Dynamo server. It has "personalisation" server.

Re: Audience Profiling
It's less programming and a lot of back end crunching at the end. For every page view, record the cgi.http_referr string, the current cgi.querystring and/or cgi.scriptname, and/or other additional parameters such as the userid/ip address, time, etc...as much unique data as you will need in the long run... once you have the 2gig database sitting idle on the server, use some other environment, not cf, to access the databse and crunch the data and spit out classifications of the user and other stats and possiblity back to another "personalization" database. Also, you have tried weblog analyzers? If all you need is tracking general movement then just crunch the weblogs. xing - Original Message - From: "Roger Lim" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: "CF-Talk" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 27, 2000 6:48 PM Subject: Audience Profiling Hi, I'm currently planning a project that requires Audience Profiling.
