We recommend Google Analytics for tracking website activity.
Google Analytics is a free service offered by Google that generates detailed statistics about website traffic and visitors. Google Analytics will work for all pages of your website. This information can help you improve your website’s return on investment (ROI).

How much traffic can I have?
We do not have a limit on the number of website visitors to your site. However, there is a physical limit to the amount our network can handle.
There is no way to determine the maximum number of visitors your site can sustain. Each site is different, and the amount of traffic you can handle depends on the resources each visitor consumes.
What about huge and unexpected spikes in traffic?
If there is an unusually large spike in activity that consumes resources from other servers, your site will be constrained. This is a very unlikely scenario.
But I thought it was unlimited?
Just because you can have an unlimited amount of something does not mean it is physically possible to consume an infinite amount. Unlimited does not mean infinite.
It is not possible to use an infinite amount of the server, since there are other limits in place, such as how much CPU you can use at once, how many processes you can have open at once, how many emails you can send in an hour, etc. Certain rules are in place to prevent a single user from monopolizing a server in a shared account environment, thereby preventing other customers from using it.
Based on today’s standards and Webtools’ architecture, any limitation is very unlikely. However, if resources are being consumed via FTP or the web at an extraordinary rate, VCG reserves the right to restrict your online traffic to 10 gigabytes per month. Should this problem arise, you will be contacted by Customer Support to help resolve any issues.
