Top Ten List Referring URLs in FrontPage 2002
Using Microsoft FrontPage® version 2002, you can quickly insert a Top 10 List
that links to the Top 10 most frequent referring URLs. Referring URLs represent
where your visitors are coming from when they browse your site. Your visitors
can use these links to jump to other sites with interests in common with yours.
Also, you can use this information to better understand your site visitors’
browsing experience and improve your Web site accordingly.
Top 10 Lists use the data from the Usage Analysis feature- in FrontPage and
require FrontPage Server Extensions 2002 or SharePoint™ Team Services.
To add a Top 10 List that links to the Top 10 most frequent referring URLs,
open your Web site with FrontPage 2002 and edit it as follows:
- In Page view, click on a page where you want the list to appear and
then select Web Component from the Insert menu.
- Under Component Type: select Top 10 List.
- Under Choose a usage list:, select Referring URLs.
- Click Finish.
- In Top 10 List Properties, enter a name for your new usage list in
Title Text: box.
- Under List Style, select a list style and click OK to close
Top 10 List Properties.
- Save the page and publish it.
Tip: If you see the message, There is no data for this time period.,
when viewing the list in your browser, usage data collection may not be enabled
or configured properly.
- First check to see if Usage Analysis is enabled. To find out how see, “Setting Up Usage Analysis in FrontPage 2002”.
- If Usage Analysis is enabled, check how often data is collected. If data
should be available and is not, contact your server administrator or ISP to
make sure usage analysis is configured on your Web server to use the logging
property Referrer.
Note: Usage data is collected in log files created by the Web server
your Web site is hosted on. The usage data you have to work with depends on
the logging settings specified for your Web server. If you want the full
capabilities of the usage analysis features in SharePoint Team Services and
FrontPage Server Extensions 2002, you must make sure that the logging settings
for your Web server are configured to produce all the data you want.
