Hi there,
What is the best way to record the bounce rate on a website using php? Also how do you record the exit pages on a website?
I have noticed google analytics uses javascipt. What is the best way to record hits?
Thanks

Re: bounce page hit counter php
'Bounce rate' and 'exit page' are concepts that exist at the level of analyzing traffic patterns in an abstract way. They are not some kind of event you get a notification of; in fact, both represent a negative event (a user not requesting any more pages inside an arbitrary timeframe or behavioral context constituting a 'visit'). You can as readily use your plain old server access logs as some wacky sort of JavaScript-based tracking for the raw data. PHP is only relevant by way of being a possible (if probably suboptimal) language for implementing your behavioral analysis in.
