I use shinystat.com (http://s2.shinystat.com/cgi-bin/shinystatv.cgi?L=1&USER=phpnews&NH=1) and see that it's quite cool for a small website like my blog. It have quite a lot of useful stat: page views, visits, visits/countries, referers,...I see that 30% visit form this forum ;)
But I don't want to see as a "frog under a well", If you use other site trakers, Please tell us what is the pros and cons, and what is your most favourite one?
Thanks!

I use mvtracker.com

Just takes me one click to see exactly what is happening on my site

Yeah, similar to shinystat, for example, I can click here (http://s2.shinystat.it/cgi-bin/shinystatv.cgi?USER=phpnews&NH=1)at to see the basic stat.
Can you post the link for the demo?

awstats. I love it. I guess it's not free but it's the best that I've used.

Thanks, I've just set up mvtracker to test. It's seem funny when I fill my blog with all kind of tracker, for the experimence purpose.

I use tracewatch (http://www.tracewatch.com/) and I am satisfied with it.

But you have to install it on your own server.

By the way, can I build traker code for two site with one account. If not, can I register 2 account with one email? (shinystat allows that)

Who are you talking to? If you are referring to mvtracker.com you would need to open an account for each site, but you can use the same email

Thanks fryman, In think your choice is quite great since the icon is very small and there are a lot of stats.
The tracewatch seems too be great to. I have downloaded it to test in future.

Yeah, I use mvtracker on all my sites. It also has a paid version so you can hide the icon and have private stats, and it also shows much more information, but I only use that on my main sites, on the others I just stick to the free one.
