How to View Website Visitors in cPanel

Check your website traffic stats including page views, visitor counts, and popular pages.

cPanel includes built-in analytics tools so you can track how many visitors your site gets and what pages they view.

Option 1: AWStats

Log in to cPanel → Metrics → AWStats. Click on your domain. AWStats shows:

  • Monthly/daily/hourly visitor summaries
  • Top pages and URLs
  • Entry and exit pages
  • Referring sites and search keywords
  • Visitor countries and browsers

Option 2: Webalizer

Log in to cPanel → Metrics → Webalizer. A simpler tool showing monthly summaries of hits, files, pages, and visits.

Option 3: Raw Access Logs

Log in to cPanel → Metrics → Raw Access. Download the compressed log files for a detailed, line-by-line record of every request — useful for debugging or advanced analysis.

Option 4: Google Analytics (Recommended)

For more detailed tracking, add the Google Analytics tracking snippet to your website. It tracks behavior, conversions, demographics, and more in real time.

Tips

  • AWStats and Webalizer count bot traffic, so numbers may be higher than real human visitors
  • Google Analytics filters bots and gives more accurate human visitor counts
  • Raw logs are useful for finding 404 errors and identifying abusive IPs
