I don't care for my web host's stats counter. I have installed a free counter I found online, http://www.statcounter.com/ but am starting to question just how accurate it is. Can anyone suggest another counter?
Statcounter is pretty good. I use it on nearly all my sites, mostly out of habit. I find that it generally tells me everything I need to know. I have Google Analytics running on some of my more popular sites, but I barely ever look at it. There's nothing to stop you running Statcounter AND Google Analytics at the same time. Then you can compare the results (if you've got nothing better to do).
Search for Clicky or Woopra.. I have used Google Analytics some time ago, but I seems to like Clicky way better
I am using Google Analytics along with Google Analytics. I tried real time stats services like woopra. But I am very frustated about their service. They are a bit costly than Clicky. Now I am trying Clicky. Woopra doesn't have any web stats you have to use their client application to see the stats but looks like clicky has it.
