Xlogan 2.0 released

Friday, March 30th, 2007

Xlogan 2.0 has now been released and the website has been updated with lots of articles about how Xlogan can help you make the most from your website.

The articles cover a range of topics, from basic questions such as “how many visitors does my website receive?” to more advanced and specialised topics such as “do Google AdWords work for me?” and “how many of my visitors have the .NET framework installed on their machines?”

To find out more about how Xlogan can help you answer these questions, and to download Xlogan 2.0, please take a look at the new Xlogan website.

You can also find out more about Xlogan Pro 2.0 for those of you who need even more from their log file analysis software.

The next step for Xlogan’s development will be Xlogan 3.0 - please email me or add a comment to this blog if you have any suggestions for features you’d like to see.

Xlogan Pro - beta testers wanted

Friday, March 23rd, 2007

I’ll be releasing  a new “Pro” version of Xlogan shortly, which adds a number of features to Xlogan designed to help those using their websites to run their business:

Conversions
If you go to the Files report, select a file, right-click and select “Show Conversions Report”, it will give you statistics for what percentage of visitors downloaded that file, sorted by referrer, search term and entry page.

Export report to XML
You can save Xlogan’s report to XML, so you can import it into other programs. You can also load it again in Xlogan, which saves time if you want to look at the report again later.

Compare Reports
You can compare one report with another. For example you can compare the report generated by today’s log files with the XML exported for one of last year’s log files. Xlogan shows you the stats side by side, with the percentage change. This lets you easily see what new referrers are linking to you, whether you are converting more visitors into downloaders, etc.

If you’re interested in testing this new version, please email me at alex@axeuk.com. I’ll be giving away free copies and Amazon vouchers for useful feedback.

The free version of Xlogan will continue to be available.
