When you have a website online, you may want to check on how many people are coming to your website. cPanel has several built in statistic reports.
Please note: The stats may not begin working and updating during the first 24 hours.
The favored program is AWStats. This program updates every 24 hours, and also instantly updates when you click the "Update now" link. The statistics report gives details about the amount of people coming to your website, and other information like:
- Monthly history
- Days of month

- Countries (Top 25)
- Hosts (Top 25)
- Authenticated users (Top 10)

- Pages-URL (Top 25)
- Operating Systems (Top 10)
- Browsers (Top 10)
