You install a simple tag into your website like at the bottom
It’s probably less then this since this is an older code I used, lol.
Anyway it scans who goes onto your site and directly places it into your free analytics account listing where people come from, such as if they come to your site from a link. And other useful stuff such as where they quit your site, or which pages they viewed most etc.
Webalyzer is almost 30x as infotic so I personally use that..
