Hi,
Under $100 US. www.mach5.com . FastStats is a downloadable program. You must also download your "raws" log files to your PC. You then run FastStats on the log files. There is some initial setup. How much depends on you. Basicaly you can setup include or exclude filters based on the information you need. I've been pretty happy with it. You can get more robust programs but for me it came down to my budget. I tend to shy away from imbedded hit counters/embebed stats programs as you normaly have to reley on a third party server. When the third party server gets swamped it can delay your page from displaying.

Corel, you may also like to take a look at www.thecounter.com, which I have used with great success. They have a free hit counter, or for around USD 15 per year you can get full statistics. I have found this very reliable and worth having.
Good luck
Handsome Ian

Hi Corel
After hunting high and low for the last of the 'FREE' web stats online, I came across addfreestats.com and it has opened up a new view of my sites. I have utilised thecounter.com but now find them good but basic (so Ian, play with this one also)
At first the coding for each page seemed overkill,(took 10 mins to stat 6 pages) but I now find that several of my "child" pages are entry pages (not mentioned or recorded in thecounter stats) and this is leading to a bit of redefinement of those pages.
Time on site, exit entry pages,and the keywords used for those pages.
And a small button on the site !!
THere are several free stats out there (still), but this one is worth a try.
Cheers from the Outback

If your budget permits, I'd recommend looking at Web Trends or Live Stats. Most hosting companies these days offer a statistics program of some sort. Did you check with your host to see what they offer?
