    It's a great tool but it can take time to get started and running...I think it should be used in combination with something like awStats.

    I agree that might be a good Idea to use multiple analytic programs for different status

    I am satisfied with GA. I have only one small problem. When I want to see stats for actual day, it is not set default. Default is month stat without actual date. I must set actual date when I want to know actual state

    1. google will know your conversion rate
    2. it's quite painful setting up tracking with multiple traffic sources

    The Only bad sad about it is that it isn't real time stats, like I believe someone already mentioned other then that its a great tool. I think it was once almost real time but they ran into lots of problems when they had it setup that way.

    Just add it to the footer template so it appears before the closing body tag.

    I like to add all my analytics type things (Google, 103bees, whatever else I'm testing) in a single file that I can include. That way it's a one time edit of the template, and changes to the analytics happen outside of the template.
