    I am currently using Google Analytics and it says that i dont have a lot of hits, but when I use Statcounter, it says i have alot of hits


    Who Is Right?

    Why are they different?

    What is the best Free Counter out there?

    I use analytics and awstats - I find the figures to be quite close. Analytics for me has better graphics but awstats is cool also.

    There is likely that the figures are false googles.

    No 2 sites ever give the same stats even within Google - thats the frustrating thing about SEO. The only place I use for Analyics is Google Analytics. BTW can anyone recommend this book "Outsmarting Google: SEO Secrets to Winning New Business" at www.books-for-everyone.com

    Analytics is probably far better at detecting real visitors and not spam bots or whatever. Also it may slightly underestimate your traffic due to javascript blockers.

    I don't know guys I believe your code is not placed correct within your pages. Check your ID as well.. It's sounds impossible to me that google analytics does not show any hits if u already got any.. :( strange.

    I have also noticed this and I think GA doesn't count all the hits and it's not a good idea to use it on low traffic websites.

    I prefer Google analytic account for the reason that Google analytic is better than Statcounter Tool....

    Google analytics seems to have as many friends as enemies, so far, it seems to be working alright, but I think it's good to see what other software has to say about such an important part of any internet business, Market Samurai?

    Google Analytic results of links is in close approximation to the results.So I find better to use the Google Analytics then any other service to analyze my backlinks
