What other web analytics tools people use other than google analytics?. ...
Anyone know any server side analytics tools? I've heard of awstats, webalizer, and urchin. The last of which is expensive. Are awstats/webalizer really the only free tools out there? It seems like there's an incredible hole in the analytics market, which the clientside market so saturated and the server side... not. Suggestions? Thank...
I am working on a project using Ruby on Rails and I need to monitor web requests to generate traffic analytics (hits, unique visitors etc), but I have been instructed that using an external service, such as Google Analytics, is unacceptable (don't ask me why, I may break down and cry). I can however, use a plug in or anything else which...
My understanding is that Google Analytics (the tool I'd normally use for website analytics) cannot be used on a MySpace page, because MySpace doesn't allow you to embed javascript. But my client wants to track usage of her MySpace page. Has anyone found away around this? I'm looking for a different web-based, third-party analytics tool...
I need a hit counter for my various pages, but I can't use google analytics (my client isn't ready for cloud computing) and I can't use anything that requires access to the IIS logs (the server administrator owns them and doesn't want to give them up) What resources are there for user usage tracking for what is essentially a hosted ASP....
I'm trying to determine why an enterprise wouldn't want to use Google Analytics. Here are the main reasons I've seen mentioned: Inability to track clients that have Javascript disabled. Lack of ownership of the statistics - Google owns the data. Most of the web clients with Javascript disabled will probably be bots/spiders. This ...

I need to track every human visit if possible because this will affect the amount of money i have to pay. I will need to download site statistics for all of my pages with an acc...
I cannot use Google analytics because of their limitations on the API. They will not allow me to query more then 10,000 entries in one day. Since I have more then 10,000 pages Google Analytics will not work for me unless there is a way around that 10,000 limitation. I need to pull statistics on all my pages daily and it will be over 10,0...
I need to record in "real time" (perhaps no more than 5 minute delay?) how many unique visitors a given page on my website has had in a given time period. I seek an "easy" way to do this. Preferably the results would be available via a database query. Two things I've tried that failed (so far): Google Analytics: Does the tracking/repor...
I've created a web tracking system that simply insert an event information (click or page view) into a simple SQL server table: Column | Type | NULL? ------------------------------------- RequestId | bigint | NOT NULL PagePath | varchar(50) | NOT NULL EventName | varchar(50) | NULL Label | varchar(50) | NULL Val...
Hi, i have a page with a list of items. Each item has a print now link (a.printMe) to print each item. At the end of the list, there's a print all link (a.printAll) to print all items. I want to track number of times an item was printed. If a.printAll link is clicked, then i will send all the item's tracking value to Omniture. I added t...

Where if a unique visitor comes monday, wednesday and friday they would be added into the 3 days a week bucket regardless of how many times ...

Web server log analyzers (e.g. Urchin) often display a number of "sessions". A session is defined as a series of page visits / clicks made by an individual within a limited, continuous time segment. The attempt is made to identify these segments using IP addresses, and often supplementary info like user agent and OS, along with a session...
