So many analytics, so little time

Wednesday October 15, 2008
What analytics do you use to measure your site? I think that most people prefer Google Analytics, but there are lots of other options. Some of my favorite free tools include: Deep Log Analysis, AWStats, and PiWik. And the main advantage to them is that they all provide a lot of different things to measure. What do you measure on your site?

Just thought I’d let you know about a possibly broken or dodgy link. The StatCounter site seems to be in a strange state: clicking on any links off the home page gives a blank gif image.
It’s not my browser or firewall (or NoScript) that’s at fault here. Same results in FF and IE.
