HiSoftware Releases Hi-Stats™ - Web Site Visitor Tracking Solution Provides Analysis and Reporting Without Server Access

Concord, New Hampshire – August 4, 2000 – Over ninety percent of Web site owners do not have access to their web servers for information about visitors to their site. Providing server access to customers exposes Web hosting companies to significant security risks, yet customers need this essential information to successfully manage their Internet presence. Responding to this need, Hiawatha Island Software Company, Inc. (HiSoftware) today released Hi-Stats™, the first Web site visitor log analysis and reporting tool that does not require direct server access. Hi-Stats provides reporting capabilities with the depth and breadth required to meet the needs of web site owners ranging from the Internet entrepreneur to the largest enterprise customer.

“To compete effectively in the eMarketplace, it is essential to know what happens on your site, and, more importantly, to understand it,” said Robert B. Yonaitis, founder and CEO of HiSoftware. “Many web site owners must rely on hit counters, which provide virtually no statistical information on web site visitors, or their behavior. Hi-Stats provides vital, in-depth eBusiness Intelligence previously available only to organizations that own their web servers -- how visitors are getting to your site, unique and repeat visitors, and what types of information they are accessing. Armed with this intelligence, any size business can spot trends faster and compete more effectively on the Web.”

HiSoftware will market Hi-Stats directly to business owners, as well as to Internet Service Providers. “Hi-Stats makes an excellent value-added service for an ISP to differentiate itself from the competition,” continued Mr. Yonaitis. “It offers flexible reports with in-depth analysis at a very affordable price point for ISP customers.”

Hi-Stats requires no special programming or installation. It provides up-to-date, browser-based reports by the day or hour. Standard reports include:

·         Visitor behavior: Analyzes how visitors find your site, which pages generate the heaviest traffic, and where you might be losing customers. Specific reports trace new and repeat visitors by region, average number of requests and domain-tracking.

·         Site statistics: This includes URLs visited, resources accessed, total hits, size of total downloads, referring URLs, and a log of keywords and keyword phrases.

·         Errors: Provides statistics on failed URLs, hits and browser errors.

·         Advertising campaign reporting: Reports on views and clicks and affiliate link tracking.

Hi-Stats also supports virtual domains and bandwidth reporting.

Hi-Stats is available in three versions to meet the needs of small- to medium-sized organizations and the enterprise customer. Pricing is as follows for a single user license:
