Better than Google Analytics?

. Statcounter

Statcounter is a tool similar to Google Analytics, in that it is used for tracking your visitors and the traffic on your site.

However, I think it is easier to understand and use than Google Analytics.

The layout is a lot easier to navigate and undertand,(i know google can be confusing sometimes)

Ready to put this into action?

I especially recommend this for "beginners". You can see a ton of information from this site, including exactly where your traffic is coming from, what keywords are ranking for you best and which search engines are giving you the best results!

They also include what pages are most popular on your blog or website.

An awesome key i like with this free site is where your visitors are clicking from to leave your site, and many more!

I started using this tool when I first began blogging because of it’s simplicity, and I still continue to use it even today, in addition to Google Analytics.

They send me a weekly detailed report in my email here is an example:
