Default Traffic

I am curious to see what our members use for tracking their traffic.

I currently use Statcounter, its free and it provides a customizable counter and even allows you set it to invisible. It also has pretty good reports for a free script.

What do you use?

I have seen some people use urchin from Google but have never seen what types of reports it provides etc..

I use Awstats. I've tried other things but Awstats is the best in my opinion.

Default Re: Traffic

It gives everything, unique visitor counts, all the basic info, what browser people are using, how they go to your site, through what search engine, by what keywords, etc.

I use extremetracking and awstats and they give much different numbers. The awstats numbers are always much higher than the extremetracking numbers. I don't know which is right.

Ive tried extremetracking and at first didnt understand it so just left it. The first one I tried was statcounter but they only have a 100 size for logs which is too small for websites getting a lot of traffic. In the end I always go back to AWSTATS. cPanel comes with it from what I know.

Awstats. I don't like any other tool to track traffic, unless I get a better one than awstats.

agree with mabel01. That's what I use too, and I like their features. Been using it for over a year now.

I've been using Statcounter for over a year now and it's, I must say, one of the best out there. But then again I haven't used many either. I used to use something with thousands sets of customised images, and extremetracker (or something like that) but stopped after days of figuring things out. Statcounter is very nice and I would recommend it to anyone. It's really good.

Google analytics is the way to go! Awstats is good as well but I have never had much luck configuring it to work on my own server. Works great in cpanel though lol...
