Well done! Good to see you hard at work.

Allowing others to access individual charts would be good…

I am a very recent new member to StatsCounter and while visiting the site today happened to click on “Blog.” From the stories about Adnohn to the 3rd Party Cookies Fiasco to the Recent Update I want to say how refreshing it is to be a member of a company that is very obviously one of the few “Good Guys.”
Very rarely does a business model include staying true to your values.
You are proving that you really can “Do No Evil” while succeeding at the same time.
Hats Off!

I’ve been using Statcounter service since 2003…and what can I say?
This is a great tool without a doubt and the most important: you can really trust them.
Keep walking…

Statcounter is the best.
Thanks for increasing the log size for the freebie accounts. The extra is a real help.

I’m still relatively new to blogs and stats. I have noticed though that IP addresses in the UK often report the user as coming from a completely different city - hundreds of miles away - than their true location.
Is there any guidance on how to gauge the accuracy of the reported IP address locations?

I’ve noticed that the recent visitor page does indeed load a lot faster, however the programme does seem to have trouble resolving the host details now. It sometimes takes over a minute to get this information.
StatCounter Team Response:
Thanks for pointing this out Alan!
This should be loading super fast now.

The service that is provided by Statcounter.com for free is in my mind the best value service on the internet. If you are serious about marketing online you have to know where your traffic is coming from and what they are doing on your website.
Statcounter.com is the easiest tracking system to integrate into any website that I have come across. Once again I thank you from the bottom of my heart for this invaluable (although free) business tool.
Regards,
Gary

I’m a recent Statcounter user too and I also have another free stats logging system provided by my host. I have to say that yours is a far better & more useful implementation, although there’s just one useful thing the other system provides and that’s a ‘who’s logged on now’ function.
You may not like this one, (o:), but I downloaded my 500 log the other day and I thought, “wouldn’t it be useful if there was an option to clear the log space back to 0 at the same time…..”
October 2nd, 2007 at 12:06 am
Brilliant, always good to see improvements to one of my favorite website tools.
October 2nd, 2007 at 9:33 pm
Great stuff, keep them coming and continue to make this excellent service even better.

You constantly prove you’re the best in the field of free stat trackers and you certainly deserve it, so my congrats folks. Keep up the excellent work.

I would suggest that statcounter should show PPC stats separately. This make the job even easier…
Rest is fantastic…
October 4th, 2007 at 12:49 pm
providing a link to show stats to public would be good and littile bit focus on banning IP address too.I think it not working well with dial up connection.
October 4th, 2007 at 10:31 pm
the “email report” previously really got many problems, hope it can deliver now
October 5th, 2007 at 6:14 am
Cheers guys! You make the internet a fun place to be! Keep up the good/hard work!
October 5th, 2007 at 11:48 am
this is the best web counter..
October 6th, 2007 at 6:50 pm
show ip in the same page of visitor path
October 7th, 2007 at 6:37 am
Is there any way to trace the ads clicked on a site? Currently, I check them with mybloglog statistics, which tells which ads were clicked and how many times.
October 7th, 2007 at 2:28 pm
I have just tested “recent visitor activity” and “recent pageload activity”, pages load really faster.
I load pages from Vietnam (Asian country).
Thanks Statcounters!
October 8th, 2007 at 4:16 am
Just getting set up on Statcounter and its nice to see that Statcounter provides a nice and smooth method to generate user feedback. Thanks.
October 8th, 2007 at 7:55 am
Dear Stat Counter crew,
I thought that your site was the best stat counter on the net, and now you are improving it…
Thanks for keeping it up.
October 8th, 2007 at 11:43 am
Wow, sounds great.
I didn’t know such updates.
Thanks for a great tools
October 10th, 2007 at 10:05 am
good work guys. maybe now try speeding up the search engine wars page :p
October 10th, 2007 at 6:51 pm
great tool; had no idea where my visitors were coming from till now. Would love to be able to clear the log, which i polluted with my own working setup visits.
StatCounter Team Response:
Hi there,
Go to your project, click the wrench icon and then click ‘Reset Stats’ - this will clear all the stats for you.
October 11th, 2007 at 1:18 am
I love the improvements you have made to the site. It’s takes much less time to load the recent visitor activity stats after the upgrade. Keep up the good work!
October 12th, 2007 at 12:27 am
Have found your site the easiest, best and fastest to use, even compared to Google Anil….. which takes more time to go thru and learn. The improvements on this site are great and thanks for this outstanding tool from a great company and crew. Your the best !
October 12th, 2007 at 6:42 pm
The email report sent to me always goes to my Junk mail. Any idea how to correct it ? I am using yahoo mail.
October 12th, 2007 at 10:53 pm
that is fantastic
October 13th, 2007 at 8:12 pm
I would love this if there were more integration with livejournal. I do like it though, keep up the good work!
October 17th, 2007 at 8:59 pm
Everyone says here that the log size is 500 for free projects, so why is mine then still limited to 100?
StatCounter Team Response:
Since May of this year, ALL free accounts get a log size of 500. Check out this post to find out how to adjust your log.

OutClicks - measuring where they went to once leaving the site
October 18th, 2007 at 2:05 pm
First off statcounter is a great tool, beats the competition hands down , well done.
Its Easy to set up easy to navigate and few clicks to get to what you need.
which brings me neatly to my suggestion:
If they are anything like me each user probably has one go-to report that
they check if they are not doing any serious analysis. For me its the recent
visitor activity.
If that user has multiple projects they probably want to check that report on each
project, at the moment that means going to the report for a project, going back
to projects choosing a new project and going back to the report again. the clicks
add up.
be nice to be able to switch the project context from within the reports
(maybe its already possible and I’m just missing something!)
October 20th, 2007 at 11:44 am
I am using the free version for now and it is great.
My suggeston for now - can one delete log?
October 25th, 2007 at 3:00 pm
Hey!…Man i love reading your blog, interesting posts ! it was a great Thursday
November 4th, 2007 at 8:44 pm
Great update, really usefull :). Now it’s really much faster.
November 6th, 2007 at 1:55 am
Great update!
I have been using statcounter with 100 log size for a long time, and it really helped with my websites.
After the update to 500 min, I found that the “Come from”, “Recent Come From” and other statistics did not work at all. Anyone can help me out with this?
StatCounter Team Response:
Hi!
We had a quick look at your website - you have the html only code installed. This code does not collect “came from” information. You need to regenerate your StatCounter code and this time, DO NOT tick the option “OPTIONAL - HTML Only Counter”. If you install the new code, everything will work fine.
Hope this helps!
November 7th, 2007 at 12:57 am
It works now!
Thanks a lot for rapid response.
November 15th, 2007 at 4:16 pm
Wow! You guys know how to take care of your customers. Thanks.
November 17th, 2007 at 3:56 am
Awesome! Thanks for the improvements. Keep up the good work! I have been enjoying StatCounter for a long time now and it keeps getting better.
November 22nd, 2007 at 7:04 am

Si necesitan delegación en España, contactenos!!

I have been seeing some problems with the Recent Visitor Activity page. I have many stats showing Visit Lengths as “Multiple visits spread over more than one day” and the Entry Page Time is the first date/time of their entry on my site even if that entry was days/weeks ago from the most recent entry.
Say this one’s recent entry is November 23 but the stats show:
Number of Entries: 87
Entry Page Time: 14th November 2007 08:14:39 PM
Visit Length: Multiple visits spread over more than one day
Browser: MSIE 6.0
OS: Windows XP
Resolution: 1024×768
And the returning visits is 0.

At this level is difficult to give now idias. Maybe to now here visitors are clicking on the site it will very helpful.
Statcounter are logging clicks inside the site for other pages of the same site, not for other sites.

April 6th, 2008 at 3:26 pm
