I find it useful to override some of cPanel’s default webalizer configurations. There can be a lot of misleading or unnecessary data when you don’t ignore traffic that is being referred to from your own site.
Create the following file:
vi /home/username/tmp/webalizer/webalizer.conf
HideSite *example.com HideSite localhost HideReferrer example.com/ MangleAgents 4 TopSites 10 TopKSites 10 TopURLs 10 TopKURLs 50 TopReferrers 250 TopAgents 15 TopCountries 10 TopEntry 10 TopExit 10 TopSearch 20 TopUsers 20 # Usually you want to hide these HideURL *.gif HideURL *.GIF HideURL *.jpg HideURL *.JPG HideURL *.png HideURL *.PNG HideURL *.bmp HideURL *.BMP
Replace example.com with the domain you are working on. The next time webalizer runs it will not be clogged with useless referrers generated by your site. To force webalizer to run(in a cPanel environment), execute:
/scripts/runweblogs username
