Question

Friends I have created a mysql table to get the page visits for my website.
My table is like this

statistics_table(stat_id,visited_page,visit_count)

Where the visit_count is incrementing by one for every visit.This works perfect. But now i need to to save all statistics in a different table each an every day to my traffic monitoring purpose.

like follows

2012/12/15-->page1-->100 visits
2012/12/16-->page1-->180 visits
2012/12/17-->page1-->200 visits

because statistics_table incrementing its value every day,so i can get how many visits per day using

(2012/12/16-->page1-->visits)-(2012/12/15-->page1-->visits)//80 visits

At the moment i am using an another table with same schema+date and update it everyday using cron job.

Is there any way to make this work rather than my way? I mean easy/better way to do this.Thanks for any advice.

You can use the following query statement to insert datas to another table,

INSERT INTO Table_name(stat_id,visited_page,visit_count)
SELECT stat_id,visited,visit_count_page FROM Exist_Tablename WHERE <condition>;

DELETE FROM Exist_Tablename 
WHERE <condition>;

Like this you can try,

This may helps you.
