I am looking at awstats through cpanel for a new website. I got some visitors from google but there is nothing listed under "Search Keyphrases". Does that mean "traffic" from google is just google bot?

    From my understanding (if I am understanding correctly).. most people use https with google, thus search terms will not show up in programs like awstats

      I have been away from IM for several years. I remember with my previous sites if someone searched for a term like "blue widgets" and came to my site from Google that keyword would get listed on Awstats. On a new site there is no keywords listed on AWstats but a few hundred visits were from Google. Wondered if that is just the google bot and nothing to get excited about.

    I would highly recommend staying away from AwStats as their numbers compared to real numbers are very different. Get setup with google analytics.
