Many products of this type are free and can be downloaded from the internet. These come in two forms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Standalone Solution:<\/strong> Where software is installed directly on the computer that hosts the website and then analyses its activity logfile, e.g. WebTrends.<\/li><li><strong>Application Service Provider Solution:<\/strong> Where measurements are gathered over the internet using \u2018tags\u2019 that are placed into every page on a website, e.g. Google Analytics.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.softgridcomputers.com\/contact\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"740\" height=\"140\" src=\"https:\/\/www.softgridcomputers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/softgrid-blog-Banner_1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1201\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.softgridcomputers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/softgrid-blog-Banner_1.png 740w, https:\/\/www.softgridcomputers.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/softgrid-blog-Banner_1-300x57.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Website Feedback Monitoring <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a process for regulating and responding to communications from your site\u2019s visitors in a controlled and timely manner.
