I'd like to collect data from the people who visit my web site and collate the information. How do I do it?

What you're basically thinking is a survey, where you have a bunch of questions that you want your users to answer, and a way to collate the data to make it meaningful.\n\nThe application I use is SurveyMonkey http://www.surveymonkey.com . For $19.95 a month, I can put in a survey (either as a popup, a link on the site, or even as email to my subscribers) with all the questions I want. SurveyMonkey collects all the information exportable in various formats in REAL TIME. For open ended questions, SurveyMonkey simply lists the responses received. You can opt to get demographic info of the respondent or not. \n\nThis is the CHEAPEST way to do market research online.

I am using a technology for using spreadsheets on the web.\n\nIt's like you keep your stats on the web and everybody can see them or if you let them they can modify the data.\n\nI asume you are going to type them yourself and you want to share the info with the rest of the players.\n\nOr perhaps, every player types his stats.\n\nDrop me a line. I have exactly what you need.\n\nI use this for my company.

Nothing until you have something to offer them in the way of stats - how many hits you get per day/week/month and at least basic demographic info on those hits (e.g. what web browser a majority of your visitors use).

Use information on source

the only way would be to add a counter/tracker. this won't tell you their name or ip number but it gives you other info. just paste the code they give you in your profile in the safe mode.\n\nhttp://www.sitemeter.com/

You can use software such as:\n\n1. Your own web log. Ask your webhost to give you access to your web log -- you'll see the IP address, what pages they are accessing and their source traffic in real time\n\n2. Use softwares such as\n\nHBX http://www.websidestory.com/\nGoogle Analytics http://www.google.com/analytics/ (free)\nWebTrends http://www.webtrends.com/

not everone who visits will comment, but it should tell you how many people have viewed the site. the easy way to connect to more people is to go to a friends page click on a picture eother of someone who left a comment or a friend that'll take you to that persons site leave a comment or hit add or both, then click one of their friends you can go for hours that way and generate some interest then word of mouth and recommends from your peeps will take care of the rest. you're doing great!

This is kinda difficult.  You need a script to process the results and email them to you on your server that's hosting your web page.  The script can be in perl/php/cgi/python/etc., but something needs to do the processing.\n\nThere are free scripts available for forms processing.  Check google for form processing script and you might find some.

Good idea\nI would say, collect good information and divide into many groups according to different tourist attractions (safari, nature, walks, beaches, snow, sports, religios etc). YOu can either make the site on Microsoft frontpage and launch it or got to geocities in yahoo and get a free website (although with few restrictions).\nThat is all I have to say with a generalised question like this.\nCheers\nAndy

Beats me!  I'd just be happy to know how they get the info, like from what source on-line or otherwise!  How about you?

Wouldn't you rather create something for yourself rather than just do data entry for someone else?\n\nUSE the Internet.\n\nThe Internet is a second home. It's the easiest, most flexible, and most convenient tool for finding information now. \n\nThink about your favorites or bookmarks. You probably have a huge list of sites (sorted, if you're lucky, into folders!) about gardening, news, holidays, recipes, shopping, Christmas, family health, games, tips, TV, finance or whatever else catches your fancy. \n\nAnd the reason you bookmarked those sites? They gave you useful information. \n\nNow think about all those other people out there on the Web. Who are they? \n\nMoms, dads... single parents, grannies... sporty types, couch potatoes... teachers, homeschoolers, music freaks, would-be chefs. They all seek the same thing. And that is, of course, quality, relevant information for their kids, gardens, home projects, hobbies, and the list goes on and on. \n\nSurfers love Web sites that reflect the owner's passion about a specific topic (i.e., painting, dogs, travel, scrapbooking, etc.) They are excited to find articles, advice, and ideas that respond to their needs or fuel their dreams. And when they discover a site that appeals to them, they will return frequently. \n\nYou too can do this too. \n\nWhat is your passion? What information, based on your experiences (life, education, employment), could you share? How could you help someone else? \n\nEverybody knows something about something. Identify it and then write about it! There are thousands and thousands of people who want to read about it - and spend money on it - now. \n\nMy site was created just like this. I love to help others and I know a lot about resumes, so I created a site about that. A link to it is below. I make money on my site and so far, I don't sell a thing. That will come as my site continues to grow.\n\nBelieve me, if a 40 year old mother of two children can do it, you can, too. \n\nIt's an honest business because I created it myself. I will not do anything to "rip off" anyone else. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I did that. \n\nThe first link is to my site. The second link is to the site that I created my web site with. \n\nNot that it matters, but I live in the Dallas area. When we moved here from OKC a few months ago, this was the perfect business because it goes where I go.
