    I am using Google Analytics for my site. It is not showing many of the traffic not only twitter. I thought there is some problem in analytics. I used Awstats as alternate, it is working good. Everyone need google's communication to solve this.

    You're not the only one to notice this! There's a definite disparity betweet google analytics and twitter - you only have to look at statcounter/bit.ly/tweetmeme stats to notice differences. It's something google really need to work on

    There's an insightful post on this on searchengineland here:

    Always Stat press shows more views and visitors(even IP address , pages, their system config) than G Analytics :mad:

    It shows the traffic stats from external traffic sources the problem can dodge anyone because GA will count Twitter traffic under Reffering Sites! only will display in referral numbers

    I think that it is not a job of Google analytics to count visitors - this program counts traffic, as I know.
