Configuring Log File Analysis Hybrid Mode

“Hybrid mode” mode means Logaholic uses data from log files supplemented with javascript tracking. This means you will be able to use Cookies to identify unique visitors and collect some additional data such as such as color palette and screen resolution.

To use Hybrid Mode, you need to do 3 things:

1. Make sure cookie information is logged in your log file.

2. Select “Cookie based” as the “Visitor Identification method”

3. Place the javascript tracking tag on your site.

Step 2. Select a Log File Analysis Method

Select the Data Collection Tab from Edit Profile

Select either Log File Analysis (Local) or Log File Analysis (FTP).

Click “Save” to save the changes you’ve made.


Step 3. Set the Unique Visitor / ID Method

Select the “Advanced” Tab from “Edit Profile”.

Set the “Unique Visitor / ID Method” to Cookie based.


Step 4. Copy JavaScript

Copy the Javascript code from the input box and paste it in the web pages you want analyzed. In case of a dynamic website (CMS) it is sufficient to paste code once in the header or footer of your Web Page Template.


Tip: If you have pages that are very dense, complex, or long, place the javascript tracking code near the top of the page so you don’t miss those fast clickers.
