6.9 ThreadTrack and WebTailor from Webthreads.

Description:

ThreadTrack and WebTailor are lightweight browser and server independent CGI script packages, developed under Linux, that add state to web servers. ThreadTrack is used for tracking the activity of individual visitors to a web site, and WebTailor is used to dynamically modify the content of a web site in response to a visitor's profile or actions.

WebTailor uses a simple server-side scripting language to modify the site's content. The language, targeted to non-technical web designers, is easy to learn and use. For the more technical, the CGI interface has been expanded to enable parameter passing on a per visitor basis between scripts running on different pages.

ThreadTrack tags individual visitors to a web site with a unique identifier that remains with them for their visit. Each visitor's session is recorded click-by-click, so a database of aggregate and individual activity is available for reports. Comprehensive reporting is included, and the data (dBase III) is easily transferrable to custom reporting packages.

Distribution media:

Internet (WWW).

Licensing policy:

30 Day fully functional eval available from http://www.webthreads.com

OS provisions:

Any version of Linux on x86, a.out and ELF.
