Due to the overwhelming success of last months special offer on .EU domains we have decided to continue the offer. We have also received great feedback and would like to thank you all for your support.

How do I register a .eu domain name?

We have designed a website purely dedicated to selling .eu domain names. We have tried to make the process as simple as possible, so it only takes a matter of minutes to secure your new .eu identity. We are continuing the introductory offer of 50% OFF ALL .EU DOMAINS, so registration is ONLY £8.75!

Why should I register a .eu domain?

As the launch of .eu took place such a short time ago there are still highly desirable names still available, so it is important you register your own identity at the earliest opportunity. In the early Internet years when .com was the first TLD to explode onto the Net, many speculative domain buyers bought many of the top .com domains and in the following years made vast amounts of money selling them on or using them for their own ventures. Make sure you don't miss out this time around!!!

Visit www.Euro-Reg.com on and secure your .eu domain instantly!

Understanding your Site Statistics [top]
 

If you have a Unix based hosting plan then you can get access to site statistics. Site stats are ideal for analysing your site traffic. Who visits your site, where do they come from, what is your most popular page, what time of the day, month year are users visiting? To understand what the statistics mean here's a brief description.

Hits/strong>
Any request made to the server which is logged, is considered a 'hit'. The requests can be for anything... html pages, graphic images, audio files, cgi scripts, etc... Each valid line in the server log is counted as a hit. This number represents the total number of requests that were made to the server during the specified report period.
¼br> Files/strong>
Some requests made to the server, require that the server then send something back to the requesting client, such as a html page or graphic image. When this happens, it is considered a 'file' and the files total is incremented. The relationship between 'hits' and 'files' can be thought of as 'incoming requests' and 'outgoing responses'.
¼br> Pages/strong>
Pages are, literally just pages. Generally, any HTML document, or anything that generates an HTML document, would be considered a page. This does not include graphic images, audio clips, etc... This number represents the number of 'pages' requested only, not images or anything else included in the document featured on the page.
¼br> Visits/strong>
Whenever a request is made to the server from a given IP address (site), the amount of time since a previous request by the address is calculated (if any). If the time difference is greater than a pre-configured 'visit timeout' value (or has never made a request before), it is considered a 'new visit', and this total is incremented (both for the site, and the IP address).
¼br> Sites/strong>
Each request made to the server comes from a unique 'site', which can be referenced by a name or ultimately, an IP address. The 'sites' number shows how many unique IP addresses made requests to the server during the reporting time period. This DOES NOT mean the number of unique individual users (real people) that visited, which is impossible to determine using just logs and the HTTP protocol (however, this number might be about as close as you will get).
¼br> KBytes/strong>
The KBytes (kilobytes) value shows the amount of data, in KB, which was sent out by the server during the specified reporting period. This value is generated directly from the log file, so it is up to the web server to produce accurate numbers in the logs. In general, this should be a fairly accurate representation of the amount of outgoing traffic the server had. (Note: A kilobyte is 1024 bytes, not 1000 bytes)
¼br> Top Entry and Exit Pages/strong>
The Top Entry and Exit Pages give rough estimates of what URL's are used to enter your site, and what the last pages viewed are. Because of limitations in the HTTP protocol, log rotations, etc... This number should be considered a good "rough guess" of the actual numbers, however will give a good indication of the overall trend in where users come into, and exit, your site.
