Where Is AWStats On Lunarpages?

That’s the question I’ve been wondering about ever since joining Lunarpages – How Can I Access AWStats?

On all of my other web hosting packages with numerous different web hosts, I have been able to use my favourite stats package – AWStats.

AWStats, in my humble opinion is the best stats package out there. Not only does it produce “pretty” stats that are easy to understand, it also provides detailed information on how visitors found my site, specifically which search engine they came from and what keyword they used to find the site.

So I decided to check the stats for this website and I went inside my Lunarpages cPanel, clicked on “Statistics” and got the following screen:

As you can see, AWStats isn’t listed as one of the stats packages to use!

I found this a bit strange as it had been included in my other hosting accounts that used the cPanel, so I contacted Lunar Pages support and asked if it was possible to enable AWStats for my hosting account.

I received a prompt reply, but unfortunately they said that they didn’t provide support for AWStats.

I did a bit of digging around and found some other Lunarpages customers talking about AWStats on the Lunar Forums, the official response from Lunarpages was that “AWStats is too resource intensive and slows the servers down”.

So I guess there’s not much I can do, there are of course other stats packages offered by Lunarpages:

• Analog
• Webalizer

But they both have nothing on AWStats, I guess I’ll just have to use Google Analytics to fill my statistical desires!

The Free $775 Lunarpages Bonuses

As a bit of an incentive to entice people to sign up for a web hosting plan, Lunar Pages have started to offer some “free” bonuses to all customers, if you were to purchase these items on the open market then they would set you back around $775!

And before I continue, please do remember that everything I write on this site is correct at the time of writing, if you find any of my information is out of date then please do let me know

Anyway, back to the freebies! Just take a look at what you can expect to get if you decide to become a Lunarpages customer:

The bonuses do look really tempting, but as with most things there is a catch. A lot of the items that Lunarpages offer you for “free” are actually only free trials for a certain length of time, you would then need to pay to continue using the services.

Welcome To My Lunarpages Review Website

Hello everyone, thanks for stopping by on what I hope will turn into a very useful resource for any current, or potential Lunarpages Hosting customers.

The aim of this website is to collect as much information as possible about the popular web host “Lunarpages” and then document my findings on this website.

To do this, I’ll be signing up with Lunarpages as a “real” customer. This will allow me to monitor the uptime of my website, as well as being able to discover the Lunarpages “vibe” first hand

As I mentioned above, I’ll be monitoring the uptime of my Lunar Pages site, and to do that I’ll be using an independent 3rd party uptime monitoring service that will check the status of my website (this one!) every 5 minutes, it will then log any down time and give me a nice pretty report at the end of each month that will be published on here.

And I think that is pretty much it…I’ll really be making it up as I go along, each time I find something interesting I’ll document it on here, so who knows what could be in store for this site, only time will tell!

Hope you enjoy the site, and do feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Regards,
Dan Thompson
