Visitor or message read counts on Y! Groups?

Question

Is it possible to determine how many views or visitors I get in my yahoo discussion group? I'd like to see how many people find my group and how often each posting is read.

My group is located at http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Improve_Healthcare/

Thanks

Answer 1

you can add a free hit counter.  Here are a couple.  Just paste the HTML codes into your welcoming message and they will work.

Answer 2

you can add a hit counter to your group, however it will only reflect the hits but not actual people who visit. all you need to watch out for is the HTML code, which you insert into the description area. the characters allowed is only 2000 I think, and you'll want to be sure you're not in the red. I have a hit counter on my groups

as for how often each post, YGroups do not offer this but programs like pgoffline will sort and provide stats. only thing is, yo have to actuall backup the group to get this info

good luck!
