Hi,

I use Livestats.xsp for a web sute that came free with the hosting. When I check out the most polular entry page, it's not the home page, which would suggest that another site is linking direct to the page. I can't see in Livestats how to find out who is linking to the page, and Google doesn't return anything when I enter the pages url in.

IS there any way I can find out who's doing it?

Is there a better stats program available that does what I need above?

Is it not necessarily linking to the page which is forcing the page to be the entry page?

So many questions, hope someone can answer some please?

A URL to the page supposedly being linked would help...also, did you just run a regular google search, or did you use a backlink search?
I'd love to change the world, but they won't give me the source code.

awstats is a free stats program that help determine this. Your best bet would probably be to look in the raw access logs for the site.
