I have been using http://www.statcounter.com for quite some time, and i think it gives pretty much everything here….allowing multiple website tracking from the same account….and its FREE as in free beer. I am not sure if i am missing something.
good review tho’. Thx.

yeah, did that. oh well. Guess I’ll either have to wait for that and American Idol and see which happens first.

you just need to go to http://www.google.com/analytics/ and sign up when they finally reopen signups. they were ill-prepared for the demand when they made the service free and have shut down new registrations until they finally scale up.

How do you get an invite to Google Analytics? Is it like GMail where you need someone to invite you?

MeasureMap RSS Feeds

Just a quick followup to my MeasureMap, Google Analytics, SiteMeter extravaganza: I just noticed today that MeasureMap rolled out RSS feeds for your site data. In other words, I now have 3 feeds in my aggregator that give me a quick view of what hap…

This is great information. I have seen a lot of articles on Google analytic, but I haven’t seen one until now that compares it to other sites. This has been extremely helpful!! Thanks!!

Malicious Traffic

I have a t-shirt that says, “83% of traffic on the Internet is malicious.” People look at me oddly when I wear it. My experience is it’s wrong. It should read 92%! Let me explain. My traffic here has increased,…

Great write-up! I’m looking forward to the follow-up in a couple of months. I’m leaning toward Google Analytics myself. Free is hard to beat, and I know they will get the scaling stuff solved sooner rather than later. Also, I’m a AdSense user – I’m sure they will (at some point) do some type of interesting integration here too…

Yeah, I didn’t add Mint because I didn’t know about it before I started writing this, which is embarrasing, I guess. After I knew about it (after I started writing this), I saw that it required software installation on the server, which isn’t an option for many folks.

Oh, and it cost $30.

I can give it a runthrough at some point, though. It does look pretty cool from the movie and screenshots.

What, no Mint??? Mint trumps all three of these stats packages, in my opinion.

As far as I can tell, they don’t measure visits but only measure unique visitors.

In other words, if you came to my web site from your work computer three times over a day, that would be three visits but only one unique visitor.

I suspect they capture this data, but no report makes it available at this time. I can see pros and cons to reporting both numbers, but if you’re truly just trying to answer “How many people visited my blog today,” unique visitors is what you’re looking for, not visits.

I could be wrong, and if anyone from Measure Map is reading, I hope they can clarify it.

There is one thing I don’t understand from the comparison table; the column ‘Visits’ does not have a check for Measuremap?
Does this mean that Measuremap is not measuring the actual number of visitors that visit your blog? I think this is quite an essential item.
