For the Views (“Pageviews” as you call them) you probably won’t have too much data / behaviour to group in a base class but you still can. You would define a class that inherits from System.Web.UI.Page and place all the common logic there.
Then in your code behind files for the views (in ASP.NET MVC 1.0 there is no code behind file BY DEFAULT for the view but you can create it) inherit the view class from this common class.
For the controller you can create a class that inehrits from System.Web.Mvc.Controller and put all the common things in it. Then derive all your controller classes from this class. There’s no restrictions on namings, namespaces and file location.
