    Hiii

    Installing Google Analytics will be nice or some other stats tracking should be used. If other than please let me know which one and how to install it.

    As Google Analytics is very easy to install. I don't know about any other tracking programs.


    Thanks in Advance.

    GA is tough to beat. The stats are tremendous and the integration with AdWords is very tight. And it's free.

    I'm running GA as well as Quantcast; from what I've seen, GA is awesome.

    Google analytics is best, because its working fine and free, but if you can pay for a tracking service, I can suggest you hit sniffer, also good.

    I like Google Analytics most. They are reliable and user friendly. I get all the informations regarding my site performance from them.

    But as i see alot in this forum, most of the questions is about the analyzer. You see, analyzing and reporting is a great and powerfull tool. It helps you understand your visitor's needs and wants in your website/landing page. But after you get the resoults, you have to apply changes on the weak links in your site. Thats how you improve conversion rate/sales.

    My suggestion will be a platform that combines web analytics and actions.
    If someone disagrees, i would love to hear from them, maybe i will learn something new :cool:

    GA is great, but I like to use Wassup also for my wordpress sites, mainly just because it updates in real-time (or at least pretty close). It can be really frustrating sometimes that GA is always a full day behind.

    Its really hard to beat GA, the statistics it pulls out are too hard to beat and on top of it its free.

    Google Analytics is free, but they notoriously do not count all of your traffic. If you do a basic web search you will find a lot of credible sources that report problems and inconsistencies with Google Analytics and other direct measure sources.
