Anyone reccomend good stats service?

[dreaminginspiration]

Hey,

Im looking for a free stats service that provides clean and clear stat tracking so i can monitor my unique visitors. I dont want however a stat tracker that has a button ad on a text link is ok but nothing else.

Thanks in advance

Google Analytics has a PERFECT free stats service. They bought Urchin and made it a free service, up to 50 million pageviews per month (it used to cost $165 no matter what per month).

Webby: http://www.google.com/analytics/

Trial: gimme your Google Account Email address, you can see my site's analytics - yes, they've got user control too.

I agree with cs409, google analytics is very good BUT it has it's drawbacks, firstly it's not accepting any new signups and also it only updates data at selected intervals. I personally use google analytics in conjunction with statcounter.com, both are invisible to users. Google Analytics is especially good if you have an adwords/sense campaign and is also very good for tracking search behavious but for unique visitors, browser stats etc. i would recommend statcounter.

tracewatch.com is very simple and effective.

I third the Google Analytics suggestion, however signups are disabled right now.

If you want, you can install Awstats instead, or if you have CPanel, it's usually installed as well.

i might be changing servers alot so i need to monitor stats externally.
