Calling all Volunteers!!
Hi Folks,
New StatCounter System - In Beta
We have been working on the new and improved StatCounter SC4 system…now we need your help to test it.
A lot of changes have been made ‘under the hood’ and won’t be immediately apparent; however some of the immediate benefits include:
- Faster Loading Keyword and Country Stats
- Exit Link Stats
- Download Stats
MOST importantly the new system paves the way for other exciting new features … so watch this space!
How do I try out SC4?
It’s easy!
You need to create a new test project. This code should be added underneath your existing StatCounter code.
Note that you should retain your existing StatCounter code for now… Once the new system is fully operational we’ll convert all projects over to SC4 automatically.
To get started:
- Login to StatCounter with the “remember me” option
- Point your browser at this URL
http://my.statcounter.com/project/standard/add.php?sc4=1 - If successful the form should now read “BETA TEST SC4 PROJECT SETTINGS” then proceed as normal to install this new code below your current code.
(Note that if you logout and login again you will be directed back to the current StatCounter system.)
Thanks for your help with this - and we’d be delighted to have your feedback posted to the comments of this blog post.
UPDATE: Thanks for all the feedback so far. As the comments are getting a bit crowded we’ve created a new forum for you to discuss your ideas. Please click here to get talking about SC4! (Note: you need to register a forum account in order to post.)
Let the testing begin!

I offer to beta tester
PD: would you like I traslate the instrucction for spanish?
November 23rd, 2007 at 4:29 pm
Good to see Statcounter going forward. I’m happy to participate in the beta test.
November 23rd, 2007 at 4:38 pm
Hola Andylat,
Aqui tienes la traducción de las instrucciones.
Un saludo,
Alex
To get started:
Para empezar:
Iniciar sesión en Statcounter con la opción “remember me” seleccionada.
Despues abre esta dirección URL
http://my.statcounter.com/project/standard/add.php?sc4=1
Si lo has echo bien, en el formulario debería poner “BETA TEST SC4 PROJECT SETTINGS” si es asi, continua normalmente para instalr este nuevo código debajo de tu código actual.
(Ten en cuenta que si cierras sesion y vuelves a entrar, te mandara de vuelta al sistema de StatCounter actual.)
Gracias por vuestra ayuda con esto - esperamos recibir vuestros comentarios.
¡Que comience el testeo!
El equipo de StatCounter.
November 23rd, 2007 at 4:48 pm
Great news!
I’d like to test SC4.
November 23rd, 2007 at 4:52 pm
Great, I am a beta tester now.
November 23rd, 2007 at 4:55 pm
Great news,
Yes please!
November 23rd, 2007 at 4:57 pm
I will be glad to help my favorite statistics service. I am doing it now.
I have a question: Do we have a benefit from this new application?
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:06 pm
Btw, is it a free or paid once it is released finally?
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:10 pm
So I installed the Test Code. Let’s see what happens next
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:11 pm
I am ready to start testing SC4! Nice to see Statcounter is going forward. It will be good if you guys can provide Stat History too.
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:20 pm
http://www.askTheAdmin.com is more then happy to help out our favorite stat program!
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:25 pm
How would you like us to give you feedback? Email, blog comments, Flickr photo pool, singing telegram?
StatCounter Team Response:
Hi Jen,
No need for the singing telegram - but thanks for the offer
You can post your feedback to the comments here!
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:30 pm
Sure, I’ll test it out. I’ll try to make the best singing telegram feedback ever!
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:32 pm
Back to SC after a while away, it whacks anything else. Mmmm….so let’s see what this new thingamabob is.
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:33 pm
I’m in
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:42 pm
Only too happy to help test! Best wishes to all StatCounter fans!
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:52 pm
I’m in
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:53 pm
Using Statcounter for a while and looking to test SC4! I am in!
November 23rd, 2007 at 5:57 pm
Search Engine Wars seems to count the old stat though and show it in the new stats, seems like a little bug
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:08 pm
It will be nice to get exit link in the drill down for a visitor too eventually. this is a nice feature and seems to work very well
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:14 pm
Interesting, just now under “recent came from” a visitor from this blog page was recorded in the OLD counter but not in the NEW one even though the code is right below. Otherwise, 19 came froms where recorded in the New one, with 21 recent came froms counted in the new one, for the same time frame.
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:19 pm
Love the Exit Link feature — I’ve always wondered whether anyone was bothering to click through all the hyperlinks I embed in my blog posts.
A few items that need to be tweaked:
* The IP Blocking does not appear to be working properly when an IP range is entered using asterisks. (I entered the blocking range the exact same way it appears in a current SC3 project, where it continues to work successfully.)
* “Search Engine Wars” link in left navbar appears to point to stats from existing project in SC3, rather than project tracked with SC4 beta code.
Thanks for the nice work.
P.S. Heads up, everyone — there appears to be a Chinese bot scanning this page for links.
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:25 pm
hi we configured the beta counter [invisible] + [public] stats with plans to post the beta statcounter url link in our sidebar styled “statcounter beta’ for visitors to click on and see the new beta features. (we have our regular statcounter configured the same way) however, the url is not allowing visitors to see the stats - visitors are seeing the ‘not logged on’ prompt instead.
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:32 pm
Will test it and give the most accurate feedback. Good luck, you are doing a great job
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:36 pm
we added &guest=1 to the end of the url and it seems to work for visitors:
http://my8.statcounter.com/project/standard/stats.php?project_id=3187425&guest=1
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:38 pm
Exit links will make statcounter number one in my book. will this be available in the free version or are we demoing paid version features? We will give this a go for a few days and post a review @ http://www.askTheAdmin.com . we have used many different programs but have always came back to statcounter!
we are really feeling these improvements!
One.
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:41 pm
Yes I test it also.
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:42 pm
best wishes.
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:52 pm
Im in!
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:54 pm
Looked interesting, so I signed up, and put the Beta code in a separate “space” on the bottom of some of my pages.
Visitor Map says I’m in Texas…
I noticed, while configuring my counter, that the example counter wasn’t showing up…
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:55 pm
I am beta testing.
I have noticed 1 problem already - the “block IP address” is not working in beta. I added my current IP, but beta is counting me each time.
November 23rd, 2007 at 6:57 pm
I’ve translated tthe instructions in french
Appel à volontaires
Salut la compagnie,
Nouvelle version de statcounter en beta.
Nous étions en train de travailler sur une nouvelle version améliorée de Statcounter SC4. Maintenant nous avons besoin de vous pour la tester.
Beaucoup de modification ont été faite à l’abri des regards et ne seront pas apparents immédiatement. Malgré tout les améliorations immédiates incluent: temps de réponses meilleur pour le chargement des statistiques sur les mot-clés et les pays, des statistiques sur les liens de sortie, des statistiques sur les téléchargements.
Le plus important est que le nouveau système pose la pierre pour de nouvelles fonctionnalités très intéressantes. Faites-y un tour !
Comment puis-je essayer SC4
C’est enfantin !
Vous avez besoin de créer un nouveau projet test. Vous devrez alors ajouter le code en-dessous de votre code actuel dans vos pages.
Conservez votre code actuel pour le moment. Une fois que le nouveau système sera complètement opérationnel nous convertirons tous les projets en SC4 automatiquement.
Pour démarrer:
* Connectez vous à statcounter avec l’option “remember me”
* Allez à l’adresse suivante
http://my.statcounter.com/project/standard/add.php?sc4=1
* Vous serez alors dans un formulaire pour construire le code à ajouter à vos pages. Une fois le code généré, collez-le dans vos pages.
Remarque: si vous vous déloguez et que vous vous reconnectez, vous reviendrez au système actuel de Statcounter.
Merci de votre aide et nous serons ravis d’avoir votre retour en commentaires sur ce blog.
Que les test débutent !
Equipe statcounter

November 23rd, 2007 at 7:08 pm
I am beta testing on one of my many sites.
November 23rd, 2007 at 7:21 pm
Glad to be trying out new changes with statcounter. Always like to see “new and improved”
Chuck from rebeltraders.net
November 23rd, 2007 at 7:25 pm
So the exit links are not working 100% and the search engine results are WAY off. What else should I be looking at thats new?
November 23rd, 2007 at 7:28 pm
The exit link feature is a great thing.
I agree that it would be wonderful if we could see the exit link in “drill down for a visitor” when you check the visitor paths for example.
November 23rd, 2007 at 7:30 pm
I am going to test it now!!!
November 23rd, 2007 at 7:30 pm
im in
November 23rd, 2007 at 7:42 pm
Hace mucho tiempo que uso su servicio y no me ha decepcionado nunca, entonces cuenten con mi ayuda.
Saludos
I’d been using your service for a long time, and never disappoint me, so count me in.
Greetings from Argentina
November 23rd, 2007 at 8:04 pm
hmmm,
Okay,
Let me test SC4
November 23rd, 2007 at 8:12 pm
Despite entering my IP address my visits are being recorded
November 23rd, 2007 at 8:19 pm
quero ser beta tester!
November 23rd, 2007 at 9:25 pm
go for it
November 23rd, 2007 at 9:32 pm
Additional data about the issue with the * “Search Engine Wars” link in left navbar — the numbers have skyrocketed in the last few hours. The results are listing search engines that haven’t linked to any of my projects.
It looks like these are the aggregate search engine returns for everyone who has installed the beta code, rather than just for my own project, as I get with my existing SC account.
(Perhaps this is not a bug, but a Buddhist “be-at-one-with-the-universe” feature?)
Thanks for looking into this.
November 23rd, 2007 at 9:41 pm
looks like statcounter team is making a good job..
keep it up guys!
November 23rd, 2007 at 9:42 pm
yes ip block is not working in our beta either. tried entering ip number for blocking in beta project and by clicking block in all projects.
also drill down for exit links … clicking the magnifying glass for a specific exit clicker returns:
Database Error
The ip number [removed] is no longer present in your log of the last xxx number of pageloads.
most everything else seems to be working fine.
November 23rd, 2007 at 9:42 pm
I agree that the IP blocking feature doesn’t take effect.
Otherwise, it’s fine for me.
Thanks again StatCounter for this very cool tool.
November 23rd, 2007 at 9:55 pm
I’m in too! This is gonna be fun.
November 23rd, 2007 at 10:07 pm
My code seems to be in the right place etc but not tacking at all yet even my own hits.
probably user error
will go compare codes and see if it got muddled in the copy/pasting part
November 23rd, 2007 at 10:13 pm
Hi folks …
I’m in.
Glad to help you.
Thanks for all the improvements.
To avoid user confussion, for the second counter I’ve selected StatCounter promotion button.
Best regards …
Marco.
November 23rd, 2007 at 10:57 pm
Loaded code and its counting my visits so I added the blocking cookie and immediately instead of the counter I have a block of text saying
Statcounter - Free Web Tracker and Counter.
Disable the blocking cookie and it goes away and the counter shows again - and logs my visits!
November 23rd, 2007 at 11:02 pm
I am using the beta and I noticed that when I block my IP so it doesn’t show up on the counter, my IP still shows up.
Thought I would let you know it doesn’t seem to be working.
November 23rd, 2007 at 11:04 pm
Ok, i am testing now
November 23rd, 2007 at 11:10 pm
Oh and having picked a horrible colour for the background of the counter its not letting me change or update that either
November 23rd, 2007 at 11:11 pm
Opa,
Vamos testar também esse novo serviço…
PS: Espero que vocês também passem logo a dar suporte em Português (do Brasil)… vejam como é chato ler um texto fora do teu idioma natural?
Abraços
November 23rd, 2007 at 11:34 pm
This is exciting. I have been waiting for exit link stats. Good job StatCounter!
November 23rd, 2007 at 11:46 pm
Only to happy to help out with the beta test you guys have looked after me for years and all my sites.
November 24th, 2007 at 12:01 am
Chevere! Mucha suerte!!!:)
November 24th, 2007 at 12:17 am
Good job statcounter. I will be beta tester =)
November 24th, 2007 at 12:25 am
I’ll help out.
November 24th, 2007 at 12:32 am
The example counter isn’t showing up so you cant see your changes if any when you try to change the look of the counter
November 24th, 2007 at 12:38 am
Just installed the script.
2 own hits resolved wrong - as appeared at the ‘Recent Pageload Activity’.
(Germany, Nordrhein-westfalen, Cologne
instead of
Greece, Attiki, Athens)
November 24th, 2007 at 1:36 am
great to have exit clicks finally, but seems the IP exclusion doesnt work .
November 24th, 2007 at 2:54 am
count me in!
November 24th, 2007 at 3:07 am
It is logging visits from me, rather than excluding them. I double checked the ip number I excluded and it correct.
November 24th, 2007 at 3:08 am
Sure, you guys have a great counter already. I’d be more than happy to help!
I just added it. I’m also seeing the “IP Blocking” isn’t working.
November 24th, 2007 at 3:44 am
I am added new counter and till now found already mentioned problems - IP blocking doesn’t work and “search engine war” shows SC3 statistic.
November 24th, 2007 at 3:56 am
When I use this I get an image at the bottom with a “X” (showing it can’t be found). How do I remove this image?
November 24th, 2007 at 3:56 am
I found that if I block the cookie then the counter doesn’t show; only a link to Statcounter shows. However, if I don’t block the cookie then it shows pageloads. But, it also shows mine. So I just kept it blocking my original counter only, and I’ll have inflated pageloads until y’all fix it!
November 24th, 2007 at 4:01 am
“Exit pages” shows wrong time. It looks like it picks up wrong time zone.
November 24th, 2007 at 4:35 am
In “Search Engine Wars” drill down doesn’t work.
November 24th, 2007 at 5:00 am
I have just installed, checking all options.
November 24th, 2007 at 5:38 am
I’m looking forward to testing the beta version! I use stat counter on at least ten sites and have found that people are searching for me on the internet…probably trying to find dirt. But oh well!
Happy Holidays everyone!

November 24th, 2007 at 6:02 am
great program you guys have here. Would love to be beta tester any time
November 24th, 2007 at 6:08 am
Look good…. other then the problems already listed by others i think that a little bit of info on the new pages like what is on some pages for example if you click into ‘Recent Keyword Activity’ if shows a little info including:
How can the Recent Keyword Activity help me?
Why does the same search term appear again and again with the same ip address?
All those things explain what that feature is a little which helps those who don;t know what is what….. The Exit Links page and the other new ones could do with this sort of info.
Otherwise it’s all looking very good…. Great to see StatCounter coming forward in leaps and bounds.
November 24th, 2007 at 6:22 am
Good news for me bro. Bravo statcounter!
November 24th, 2007 at 6:32 am
Specialists helping specialists helping people make decisions . That’s my kind of community team spirit.
November 24th, 2007 at 6:39 am
with this beta statcounter, i can’t block my own visited..
November 24th, 2007 at 7:06 am
Cool we will test it too if its for great improvements for the future.
Statcounter is always the best.
But I wonder if it could include more graphical statcounters on our website to display maps of visitors.
Best wishes to all.
November 24th, 2007 at 8:08 am
hi,
i would love to be beta tester…
in the link “Visitor Paths”.
when we see the urls visited.
earlierly these urls linked open in new window. but yesterday it was opening in the same window.
kindly check and update.
thanks
Santosh
November 24th, 2007 at 8:20 am
A great feature (if possible) would be on the Exit Link results page to be able to filter for domains (i.e. show only the exit links to those matching the search) and/or even to show all visitors who clicked a certain exit link/matching string.
November 24th, 2007 at 8:29 am
WONDERFULL
November 24th, 2007 at 9:03 am
Awesome stuff!
Will the new SC4 have a visitor online feature perhaps?
November 24th, 2007 at 9:13 am
Hey there -
Look forward to trying out the new features.
Just installed the code on my new site… http://searchquilt.com
I noticed the same issue as a previous commenter.
When I create the blocking cookie, even with the invisible counter and link removed option, I still see the text “StatCounter - Free Web Tracker and Counter.”
The text does not appear once I clear the blocking cookie.
Either way, thanks for the great service.

I’ve just installed the extra code for SC4 beta, but it seems to mess up other JavaScript code I’m running. I’ve got a script that opens certain images in a new, custom-sized window. When I use the SC4 code, this doesn’t work anymore. I may be able to fix this at my end, but then again, the “old” StatCounter code doesn’t mess up my script.
This is the working version of the webpage with the old code. Click on the small picture of the cage on the right, and a popup will open with a larger image.
http://www.taletn.com/rats/
This is the webpage with the SC4 code added. Again Click on the small picture of the cage on the right, but this time no popup is opened.

November 24th, 2007 at 10:20 am
Sure! I want to test it out!!!
November 24th, 2007 at 10:25 am
i’d love to, but now im at my office, wait at 7 pm im online at my home… sute im want to test it out too…!!
November 24th, 2007 at 10:27 am
its great see that our favorite analytics tool growing bigger, go ahead statcounter we always with.
From bottom of my heart we welcome SC4
November 24th, 2007 at 10:27 am
I would love to test it but how do you get back to see the results over you have installed the code ? Do you just use the same url as above again ?
November 24th, 2007 at 10:44 am
I joined! I hope I can help out.
November 24th, 2007 at 10:52 am
I joined!
The Exit Links is a FANTASTIC addition to the service and will come in enormously handy. However, is it possible to filter out certain domains from the results. (ie: Those that aren’t genuine ‘exits’, more than they are our Image Hosting Services)?
Having to sift through hundreds of ‘Click To Enlarge’ results, to dicern the genuine ‘Clicked to go elsewhere’ results, rather diminishes this otherwise BRILLIANT addition.
Otherwise… No bugs found at all & all seems to be working fine. Thanks!
Thanks!
November 24th, 2007 at 10:55 am
here i am
November 24th, 2007 at 11:07 am
ideasmoney.blogspot.com is now going to test BETA
November 24th, 2007 at 11:23 am
Am testing it on my blog….. great to see expansion of one of my favorite programs. Will report any issues.

November 24th, 2007 at 11:24 am
The Search Engine Wars on my beta project is WAY off.
It’s not just counting the old project’s stats as others have said, but it is thousands off. Currently it says there are 4000 plus hits from Google, 300 plus from Yahoo, and a few each from many others.
It may be getting stats from other accounts and adding them together, that’s my only real thought.
November 24th, 2007 at 11:46 am
support-support and a lot of happiness 2 all-of-ya
November 24th, 2007 at 12:25 pm
Hi! Apparentlly I have the same problems as the others that are trying out SC4. The Search Engine Wars really put a big smile on my face, but then I read this section
. Hope you fix them soon.
Also, as a suggestion, it would be great to make a list with all the improvements and changes, new features, … that you plan to implement, as detailed as possible. I’m relatively new to SC and at least I would, possibly others, would find it useful. If there is already such a list, I apologize and please point me towards it.
Keep up the great work!

November 24th, 2007 at 1:14 pm
When using magnifying glass on the Exit links, it sends me to the login page, but I’m not logged out.
November 24th, 2007 at 1:44 pm
If I use “Stop logging my visits” the “Statcounter image” is no longer present on the concerning webpages.
November 24th, 2007 at 1:53 pm
Very nice. Best feature is that I’m picking up hits that I was missing before.
Did a quick run through of all the features and everything appears to work fine for me.
November 24th, 2007 at 1:57 pm
Sounds great, hope it gets released fast.
November 24th, 2007 at 2:03 pm
Clicked on Exit links, then clicked on magnifying glass to drill down. Got a message that there was no IP number and the log in page showed but I’m not logged out. Confirms problem previously reported by others.
November 24th, 2007 at 2:13 pm
SECONDS BETWEEN CLICKS (’SBC’)
One real bonus would be the addition of ’seconds between clicks’.
Currently I see this:
22nd November 2007 21:21:36 URL of Page 1
22nd November 2007 21:22:59 URL of Page 2
22nd November 2007 21:24:31 URL of Page 3
22nd November 2007 21:26:19 URL of Page 4
22nd November 2007 21:30:23 URL of Page 4
22nd November 2007 21:30:24 URL of Page 4
22nd November 2007 21:31:12 URL of Page 5
But this makes so much more sense:
22nd November 2007 21:21:36 83s URL of Page 1
22nd November 2007 21:22:59 92s URL of Page 2
22nd November 2007 21:24:31 108s URL of Page 3
22nd November 2007 21:26:19 244s URL of Page 4
22nd November 2007 21:30:23 1s URL of Page 4
22nd November 2007 21:30:24 48s URL of Page 4
22nd November 2007 21:31:12 URL of Page 5
(I can’t right-justify the ’seconds’ column in this blog; but you see the idea).
I know the data is already there, and you can import to Excel and do the maths, but seeing ‘number of seconds’ is so much more immediate than seeing the timestamps, and mental arithmetic in base sixty is a bore …
Just a thought.
What do you all think?
November 24th, 2007 at 2:15 pm
Maybe this looks better:
22nd November 2007 21:21:36 83s URL of Page 1
22nd November 2007 21:22:59 92s URL of Page 2
22nd November 2007 21:24:31 108s URL of Page 3
22nd November 2007 21:26:19 244s URL of Page 4
22nd November 2007 21:30:23 1s URL of Page 4
22nd November 2007 21:30:24 48s URL of Page 4
22nd November 2007 21:31:12 URL of Page 5
November 24th, 2007 at 2:15 pm
Err. No. Well, just imagine it was still in a neat table.
November 24th, 2007 at 2:29 pm
great..:) i think statcounter wil be better …
November 24th, 2007 at 2:29 pm
I have now the new code, and I had a green bar on this project.
statcound is alive that is good.
Thanks

November 24th, 2007 at 2:47 pm
Still no conversion tracking?
November 24th, 2007 at 3:05 pm
Got the code on the page, and it seems to work well. Will know more in a little time. Just wanted to say that the exit links feature, especially, will come in very handy.
November 24th, 2007 at 3:18 pm
Hi there this no singing telegram but we see these issues:
1. almost 50 percent discrepency between our real project and beta. im talking 50 percent - thats huge
2. Magnifying glass in certain portions log me out but not really - they prompt for a login though.
3. Strange numbers from search engine wars still here after 24hrs.
4. Not all exit links are registering.
but on the bright side
it is ALOT faster and we love the exit links.
this has been an update from http://www.askTheAdmin.com
November 24th, 2007 at 3:25 pm
Hi, It will be really useful to have the option on entry pages (as in popular pages) to see visitors in detail by: recent visitors, recent visitor map, came from and so on, and visitor map
November 24th, 2007 at 3:41 pm
its perfect i like it.. great job.

I’ve installed it on one of my blogs. I think Statcounter is great as it is so I’m looking forward to seeing the improvements.

Hi
I have configured an invisible test counter.
W/o blocking cookie (or a blocking cookie which was only valid for my other projects) everything is fine.
After updating the blocking cookie, now including the test project, my own visits are blocked but on the page I see a symbol for an image which was not found (in my case a blue rectangle with a “?”) linking to http://www.statcounter.com
keep up the good work

Hello, again! Back for more.
I’ve encountered a few more issues with Exit Links. They seem to be centered around timestamp conversion and log counts.
* While a SC4 subscriber’s pageload and visitor activity is displayed according to the subscriber’s local time (as customized in the Timezone pulldown in Project Settings), Exit Links are still displayed in GMT. A little tricky for those of us over the pond!
* Although Exit Links appears to be storing exits from the last 500 hits, when I drill down (using the magnifying glass icon) to learn more about one of the oldest exit link users, I receive the following message:
“The ip number 107******* is no longer present in your log of the last xxx number of pageloads.” [asterisks substituted to protect privacy].
(Perhaps you’re working on this as I type? I was previously getting a message that read “last 100 pageloads”.) Could this be set to match the subscriber’s pageload limit? Also, if there’s an error message that presents IP address information, could it be masked back into xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx format?
* While drilling down on a short series of Exit Links that were all grouped within an 11-minute window, I received the following message: “There was no IP number to search for.” I’m pretty certain from reviewing the Pageload information (plus an accidentally misdirected link in my project) that the user was a friend of mine with a static IP address. There’s never been an issue with capturing the IP in the Pageload info, so it’s notable that there seems to be a problem with capturing it through Exit Links.
Keep up the outstanding work! Thanks again for crowdsourcing with a public beta. [Lifts a virtual glass Dublinward]

Stat Counter rules
I can not figure out why anyone even uses google analytics over StatCounter. I use both, and I think google analytics (formerly Urchin) sucks compared to Statcounter.
November 24th, 2007 at 5:04 pm
I would really like to see SC remember me in Firefox. Please fix that.

November 24th, 2007 at 5:57 pm
exit links doesn’t seem to log anything for me
November 24th, 2007 at 6:14 pm
I just installed this on my blog a few seconds ago and I visited it using a proxy…
I’m so happy to see that SC4 has _finally_ detected that my browser is Safari 3.0 [and NOT Safari 1.2] and that my OS is MacOSX.
Since I was using a proxy [250.eu], it didn’t detect the proxy’s hostname [only its IP address] nor my screen resolution.
Anyway, so far, so good.
I’ll be on the lookout for more bugs. Thanks again for this great service. 
November 24th, 2007 at 6:20 pm
after resetting beta counter, exit links information is not being deleted.
November 24th, 2007 at 6:29 pm
Unfortienately I cannot access the necessary files for all my sites from work, and I will not have time to do much before x-mas. To gain more features in SC sounds promising to me, and I am more than willing to test your future versions. I use SC together with a few other loging systems to check the effect of various changes I do on my web pages.
And now a request for SC5, could it be possible to get up a page with statistics for all projects? Like compare OS traffic, national traffic and so on between projects?
November 24th, 2007 at 6:45 pm
Installed, but I see a real serious problem with the numbers. The new tracker is telling me that I’ve had 131 visitors so far today. And of those 131 visitors, 6,367 came from Google, 436 came from Yahoo, and 106 came from MSN.
November 24th, 2007 at 8:14 pm
Also experiencing a few glitches, search engine wars numbers are very high, and possibly a small discrepancy due to IP blocking, although I was buggering around with that this morning, so maybe it’s something I did.
Nothing to do with the beta test, but my recent visitors map says my ISP is somewhere in China, with an IP address registered to an Australian company (I’m in South Africa), so either something’s incorrect, or my ISP is lying to me (probably, the overcharging bastards) & buying things cheap & selling them to me expensive! Ha ha, anyway, SC’s a fascinating & useful product as always.
November 24th, 2007 at 9:11 pm
Count me in.

November 24th, 2007 at 9:18 pm
I’m in.
November 24th, 2007 at 9:41 pm
Just found out that in the regular project, “Visitors path” (my fav. overview page) I had a visitor with “No referring link” and no landing page.
This visitor was missing in the SC4 test project.
(Same difference under “Recent visitor activity”)
I hope it is a bug and not a new feature ;-))
johan
November 24th, 2007 at 10:13 pm
I’m liking it so far. I also experienced the huge mismatch between visits on normal and beta… until I discovered that I had not put in the IP activity block on beta, so it was showing my own and my team’s hits. Since fixing that, it’s been in sync.
Exit Pages does have a few flaws but that’s why this is in beta. For one thing, it does not appear to use the same timezone as general visits.
November 24th, 2007 at 10:37 pm
I use few months your counter and I’m satisfied. Now I put beta test code, to help testing. Any problems or else I’ll report.
Thx for your excellent project
November 24th, 2007 at 10:45 pm
All set up - let’s see how it goes!
Take care and thanks for always improving this service for us all!!!!
Steve
November 25th, 2007 at 12:21 am
Yes….would try the beta
November 25th, 2007 at 1:33 am
Will give it a try. Thanks for up grading the system
November 25th, 2007 at 2:32 am
I’m also having issues with the new code destroying my own javascript, as someone else has said up above somewhere.
With the new code added, my own function that normally opens a custom popup window now does nothing at all. There’s something with the second call to the javascript for the SC4 project that’s doing it.
That really cripples my page, so I can’t have the code on it at all.
November 25th, 2007 at 3:45 am

November 25th, 2007 at 4:14 am
Consider me to be a beta tester
November 25th, 2007 at 4:28 am
So far it seems quicker but Exit links do not seem to be working for me.
November 25th, 2007 at 4:55 am
I’ve noticed that when I go to “drill down” a visitor it logs me out..it never did that before.
November 25th, 2007 at 5:33 am
Invisible counter doesn’t work. I see just an image placeholder. I also put it on my personal blog at http://www.sharkgirl.us It does the same thing there too.
November 25th, 2007 at 6:54 am
I’m in
November 25th, 2007 at 7:05 am
I have also installed and used in my sites. If anything goes off the track, i’ll definitely inform you.
I also tried to install in my blog http://www.sangesh.com.np/blog but again thought otherwise not to reveal my visitor stats.
Cheers.
November 25th, 2007 at 7:45 am
I’m in.
November 25th, 2007 at 9:57 am
I cannot access to the beta tester.
My firefox cannot save the cookie.
How to test the beta?
I’d like to try the beta
November 25th, 2007 at 11:45 am
One Doubt/PROBLEM!
The doubt is at 12midnite the pageviews counter closes for the day and the next day opens. so the previous and the beta will start with 0. i checked for pageviews this evening and found the beta counter having 200 pageviews less than old!!!!!!!!!!
November 25th, 2007 at 12:22 pm
Finally, exit links
It works great!
It would be even better if the exit links are visible under “visitor paths” , “drill down” and “magnify user” so that we can see if someone clicks a few exit links..
November 25th, 2007 at 3:09 pm
Hi!
I was happy to try out the new beta code, but it instantly makes my site incredibly slow to load. The status bar read ‘reading statcounter.com’ and seemed to be bottlenecking the normal page load. I’m running a wordpress based gallery which is very image intensive, so I can’t afford slow page loads and have had to remove the beta code.
I’ll maybe try it again in a couple of weeks to see if you’ve ironed it out some by then, until then I’ll stick with the tried and tested version
November 25th, 2007 at 4:05 pm
As usual I only concentrate on Recent Pageloads since that is the log itself. Anything else can be fine-tuned later, as long as the logging is the same.
I see 3 main issues right away:
1) There is an apparent time stamp difference of about 1 minute between matching hits for servers c3 (my old ttracker) and c34 (my beta project) with c34 being earlier than c3. I placed the beta counter after the one on c3 so the difference isn’t due to the beta counter loading later in the page - in any case 1minutes is a long time difference for what would be at most a second.
2) I have some hits that I see in the regular counter but not in the beta one and vice versa, sufficiently far apart (and different IP’s and countries) so it’s not a server clock difference. I wonder if it’s possible some visitor have c3 blocked and other have c34 blocked in theri hosts file or other security settings, but not both.
3) I seem to have more hits recorded with the beta tracker for the same IP address than with the old tracker
I have a nagging feeling that to be able to test more accurately we would have to have the 2 projects on the same server, but using different scripts, so as to eliminate discrepancies due to visitors blocking one server but not the other.
Another little thing is that exit links don’t seem to be part of Recent Pageloads information. I can see there would be some difficulty in figuring out how to carry a blank line for all hits form one visitor for the purpose of maybe showing eventually some info for the last hit whre an external link might have been clicked - and with that a different time stamp.
November 25th, 2007 at 5:14 pm
Was the project name “test” supposed to change automatically to “BETA TEST SC4 PROJECT SETTINGS”? Mine continues with the name “test”!
November 25th, 2007 at 5:36 pm
Hey there folks.
Let me start by saying I am an avid fan of Statcounter, and my web guy said this is the best out there in the current market, and I trust his judgement. I certainly want to stay with Statcounter unless I can get better customer service somewhere else.
I just read the comments above, and I’m definitely a process improvement geek, and I am always willing to volunteer for a good cause. Apparently, Christina, above gets it on many levels, and has had the guts to speak her mind honestly. So my comments are sent to you with pure intent (not strings attached) and for the purpose of helping you help me. So here goes. This is my wish list.
1. I am not a computer whiz. I can barely log in properly to look at my stats and see if I can make sense of them. My webguy set this up in a few minutes, and I have to go back to him to add each new page to my website. That can take a few days, because he is busy, and as fast as I am making process improvements to my website, a couple of days means a lot to me.
2. With the above in mind, can you put up a tab for STATCOUNTER for DUMMIES, that will outline everything a newbee needs to know to set it up themselves? I will agree to test the beta for that, but I will be brutally honest with my comments.
3. I see all the lines beside an entry, but like some of the folks above, I am not sure how to read what each line means. I see that there is a pop-up when you hit a subject on the left hand column, but is doesn’t give enough info for a newbee to know what it really means. Is there a way to either add more to the pop-up, or have it take you to a more indepth definition?
4. Someone like me needs a glossary of terms that you use throughout the tutorials etc. I am not familiar with what some of the abbreviations mean or how they effect what I might try to do. Along these same lines, the tutorials need to be labeled with universal words. I put in search words that many times come up with –nothing found.
5. My key purpose for having a counter is to see if the universe is getting the messages in my book. I would love to not sweat the details, but there is an assumption that all the details/statistics mean something that, at this point, I don’t know whether people are getting the messages, or I am just entertaining myself with my own words.
Whoever can help me with the answers to the questions above will be my hero of the week. And I hope if you really are into customer service, I can get a personal reply. I will beta test from a dummy standpoint after I have a comfort level that I won’t mess up the data that is already there. Quite frankly, I wouldn’t know how to fix it by myself anyway.
Hang on to me Mary
November 25th, 2007 at 6:45 pm
Can’t wait to test some of the new features, keep it up statcounter!
November 25th, 2007 at 7:20 pm
For more then three years now, Statcounter has been the favourite piece of code for all my webpages across various sites. Yet again, I have installed the same in my latest venture, http://www.securedotasia.com . I am more then Happy
to participate in the new development at the our loved statCounter.
I wish you a good luck.
November 25th, 2007 at 8:03 pm
I don’t see any issues/bugs/problems so far (only a few images/graphic that are broken, but I am not sure if it has something to do with the beta test, I have the same issue with the actual one)
What I think will be really useful is to have the amount of visitors per exit link. It is useful in terms of knowing how many visitors used the same exit link. It could be another feature: “Popular exit links”
November 25th, 2007 at 8:06 pm
I love the new beta, i wish much success with it.
November 25th, 2007 at 8:43 pm
It seems my own IP address keeps showing up despite the block in place. Other than that, this is a sweet improvement all around!
November 25th, 2007 at 9:04 pm
statcounter.com gerçekten çok kaliteli hizmet veriyo tüm çalışanlarına teşekkürler.
November 25th, 2007 at 9:57 pm
Folks you are losing sight of what this blog post is about and what is beta testing.
Please don’t bring up irrelevant side issues and other features you want to see here.
This is strictly for testing the beta tracker’s basic functionality. As I said the basic functionality is getting the log straight. All other things are reports (filtering the log data by this or that criterion) and can be tinkered with later. If the log is 100% correct then reporting can be improved on LATER.
It is not about learning how to build web pages, how to add code to your web pages, nor how to interpret the statcounter stats.
November 25th, 2007 at 11:26 pm
The new beta version is better than old one If I use “Stop logging my visits” the “Statcounter image” is no longer present on the concerning webpages. The fact is every one know about statcounter. Is it a bug or is it fixed
November 26th, 2007 at 12:11 am
var features = null;
function goWin( url )
{
features = “status=no,resizable=no,scrollbars=0,menubar=no,addressbar=0,width=620,height=675″;
win = window.open(url, ”, features);
}
I’m using this script in my new site at:
http://faro.ttaxi.pt
still in construction and I did install the new code put then the script stop working.
It works with the old code.
Any one know if I’m doing something rung?
Thanks.
November 26th, 2007 at 3:13 am
So far it seems to be significantly more accurate in reporting browser, OS, and resolution data. However, I too have noticed that it still tracks my “blocked” address (i.e. my own ip), inflating my stats, but since my website is merely a blog, no biggie there until you get it fixed. I am also confused, as are many users above, about finding the exit links feature… where is it?
Other than that, looks great. Great work, keep it up!!
November 26th, 2007 at 6:37 am
Its great News that statcounter is improving day by day. Its great to be part of beta test.
November 26th, 2007 at 7:24 am
can’t wait to try this out…thanks for all your hard work
November 26th, 2007 at 8:45 am
Yes, I Will be more than willing to test the new SC4 Beta!

I would love to participate in Beta testing.
November 26th, 2007 at 1:32 pm
When attempting to add the new SC4 code to our vBulletin forum, it stopped the forum navigation links from working.
For example; it changed:-
http://www.dhimagelicensing.com/forum/memberlist.php
to
http://www.dhimagelicensing.com/forum/index.php#
Any ideas why this was happening?
November 26th, 2007 at 1:54 pm
I’m seeing different numbers for my old statcounter code and the new one. The page views were different by about 40% yesterday and 50% today. And yes, I created the blocking cookie for the new project.
Otherwise, it looks to be reporting pretty well. The downloads is a great addition, though I wonder how the downloads are being tracked.
November 26th, 2007 at 2:04 pm
i hav inserted Code lets see How it works
November 26th, 2007 at 2:05 pm
its good

November 26th, 2007 at 3:26 pm
I can’t make the beta version to stop logging my visits.
November 26th, 2007 at 3:48 pm
@ smb2007,
I noticed the same. I added my IP to the IP Blocking, but this doesn’t work.
November 26th, 2007 at 5:22 pm
Seems more accurate in the reports than the existing StatCounter. It does log my visits no matter what, same as others have said here. All the reports seem to work. Again, I love the exit links view, and the downloads view is a pleasant surprise that will definitely be useful.
November 26th, 2007 at 6:56 pm
I love the new report. For some reason I can’t see any information on the exit links nor downloads view… Please advice.
Thank you,
Juan
November 26th, 2007 at 8:07 pm

TRADUCIDO AL ESPAÑOL:
Log Size - un aviso para todos los Voluntarios!
Hola Amigos,
StatCounter - Nuevo sistema de la versión beta
Hemos estado trabajando en el nuevo y mejorado StatCounter SC4 sistema… ahora necesitamos de tu ayuda para probarlo.
Muchos de los cambios se han hecho “en la sombra” y no son inmediatamente visibles, pero algunos de los beneficios inmediatos son:
Carga más rápida de palabras clave y de los países Stats
Salir Link Stats
Download Stats
Lo mas importante es el nuevo sistema allana el camino para otras funciones nuevas… para ver este área!
¿Cómo puedo probar SC4?
¡Es fácil!
Lo que necesitas para crear un nuevo proyecto de prueba. Este código debe agregarse debajo de las existentes StatCounter-código.
Ten en cuenta que debes conservar su actual código de StatCounter ahora… Una vez que el nuevo sistema esté en pleno funcionamiento vamos a convertir todos los proyectos a SC4 automáticamente.
Para empezar:
Entrar a StatCounter con el “recordarme” opción
Apunta tu navegador en la siguiente dirección URL:
Http://my.statcounter.com/project/standard/add.php?sc4=1
Si el éxito es ahora la siguiente forma “BETA TEST SC4 PROYECTO DE AJUSTES” continuará su procedimiento normal de la instalación de este nuevo código debajo de tu código actual.
(Ten en cuenta que si al cerrar la sesión y vuelves a conectarte, este te llevará de vuelta a la actual StatCounter-sistema.)
Gracias por tu ayuda con esto - y nos encantaría contar con tus comentarios publicados en los comentarios de esta entrada del blog.
Que comience el ensayo!
StatCounter Team

hey..
well done all..
totally dig the new features you’re adding…
I think it’s already been mentioned..
but the code screws up my other javascript…
I have a pop-up script that doesn’t work after I install the SC4 code..
keep it up
November 27th, 2007 at 10:17 am
You guys are awesome and your product is excellent! Gladly added it to my site http://www.heart-of-zion.com
November 27th, 2007 at 11:31 am
I tried the same in my tech blog (beautifulminds.in) and its working.. but..! the previous stat and this new stat is showing a difference of 5 Hits… The new code is showing (Old code hits + 5).. Either the new one or the old one is responding badly.!
November 27th, 2007 at 7:58 pm
I don’t see anything interesting about the SC4 beta so far.
How about increasing the log size a little bit more, and redesigning the interface to make it more usable and faster.
Look at Google Analytics interface for example, it’s much better, no offense of course, just a thought.
November 28th, 2007 at 1:00 am
ok, installed the new one, now you guys hit on my website if you want me to comment on this new script
November 28th, 2007 at 1:53 am
hey — that’s not funny, I installed the invisible counter but it shows as text now
November 28th, 2007 at 2:03 am
Hi! I can translate anything you guys need to Brazilian Portuguese!
Henryk
November 28th, 2007 at 3:35 am
Maria, if you have a blocking cookie set it turns the counter to text and visible, its a glitch
November 28th, 2007 at 3:38 am
oops, well it did do - seems they fixed that one!
November 28th, 2007 at 3:48 am
It’s all good!
November 28th, 2007 at 3:49 am
Can we get a graph showing visits by time of day??
November 28th, 2007 at 5:16 am
The map data are all wrong: Returning Visits is showing the browser version. Visit Length is showing the originating URL, a slash and then the word seconds - no figure. Exit and Entry Pages are the opposite way around. Entry Page Time is displaying the screen resolution. And so on … every field appears to have the data from a different field.
November 28th, 2007 at 9:21 am
Yep; count me in too.
November 28th, 2007 at 3:26 pm
Stats appear to load faster. Will test on other sites.

November 28th, 2007 at 9:37 pm
In the Opera 9 browser but not in IE7 the counter for the new version still shows “StatCounter - FreeWeb Tracker and Counter” in place of the counter whenever the Blocking cookies are set.
I tried making the counter invisible and tried using one of the banners in place of the counter but it still shows the same
The counter for the present version works fine, only affects the new one
November 28th, 2007 at 9:40 pm
I have also installed and used in my sites. If anything goes off the track, i’ll definitely inform you.
I also tried to install in my blog http://www.dentalblogging.com but again thought otherwise not to reveal my visitor stats.

The “invisible” option has suddenly become visible on my webpage… The only way I found to fix it was to delete the whole bottom section of code.
November 29th, 2007 at 2:47 am
In the Forum under SC4 Beta it says
“RESOLVED: Use of Blocking Cookie causing counter not to display”
But it isn’t fully resolved see my message above
Also having logged into the Forum I’m not allowed to post or reply to posts or quote??? So all I can do is read it??whats that all about??
StatCounter Team Response:
Hi Themefrom,
Thanks for helping us with the beta test. The StatCounter User Forum uses software from vbulletin. This means your StatCounter username and password is not integrated with the forum. You need to register for a StatCounter User Forum account to post.
Thanks for the feedback - I’ve added your bug report and we’ll get it fixed.
November 29th, 2007 at 11:28 am
The Search Engine Bar-Chart is not displaying properly. Please check. Thanks for your free service.
will be good if u enhance the look and feel.
Also, provide functionalities to display visitor map in web-pages along with website-counter.
cheers, keep going…
November 29th, 2007 at 11:59 am
I am quite a veteran member of Statcounter & think it’s a great service.
I would like to try the beta but every time I click on the link I get a log in request.
I am using explorer 7 and it accepts cookies, so what is wrong?
November 29th, 2007 at 1:36 pm
Any improvements are worth the effort. It sounds like it might be worth a try. If it is half as good as the existing system it will be worth it.
November 29th, 2007 at 1:39 pm
I was about to write an article on stat counter but will try the next version then do a write up.
November 29th, 2007 at 4:31 pm
May I ask if SC4 will include the possibility to display the counter without incrementing it? I’m facing a problem with a site where *I WANT* to display the counter twice and with current SC it count twice so useless stats for this project.
Thanks
November 29th, 2007 at 6:46 pm
Had to delete the beta code last night as it was showing on my web pages as a hyperlink.
November 29th, 2007 at 6:57 pm
for the same project, I am getting a gap between page loads on the new version (4 pageloades less) and the old one.
November 29th, 2007 at 9:27 pm
Hey i am getting the exit links.its rocking!!Thank you statcounter!!

I’ve just installed the beta code. Looking good.
November 29th, 2007 at 10:42 pm
I set up a single-page project. I get the following in the ‘Browser’ stats:
203 99.51% Default Browser 0
1 0.49% IE 6.0
Mind you, the page happens to be accessed almost exclusively by the Lobo browser, but I hadn’t seen this before with StatCounter. I believe Lobo is usually assumed to be IE by StatCounter, since its User-Agent indicates that.
November 30th, 2007 at 1:18 am
trying the new counter now…
November 30th, 2007 at 4:28 am
I notice Statcounter is a PR10, congratulations, where do you go from here?
November 30th, 2007 at 4:19 pm
Statcounter is a wonderful service. I will be very glad to help test the new features during the coming week.
November 30th, 2007 at 4:33 pm
I’ve tried it. It does what it promises, so it’s great.
December 1st, 2007 at 2:00 am
Statcounter is really great, but I could not fix this new one. And… still some bots not recognized or no referal site and not showing my own url in the logs.
Weird?!
December 1st, 2007 at 4:08 pm
why no hebrew in the Keyword Analysis ??
i don’t understand any of this…
December 2nd, 2007 at 12:19 am
Hi, Ive got both the beta and original statcounter on my pages, and the beta’s results are much higher than that of the original. (Which of course im happy with.) Some days its been almost double.
Love the exit link touch, saves me having to track my own links.
thanks
December 2nd, 2007 at 7:35 am
I just added the SC4beta to my site. So far seems to be working fine.
I love the exit link!! That was one thing I was hoping to have in the current system. It’s great!!
December 2nd, 2007 at 1:37 pm
Will I lose any of my old logs?
December 2nd, 2007 at 2:06 pm
Yes, I am on, Just added.
Wising you success in this Beta testing result.
Blessings

December 2nd, 2007 at 2:53 pm
With this post I say that I am in.
December 2nd, 2007 at 2:55 pm
With this, I am in.
Best of luck StatCounter Team.
December 2nd, 2007 at 3:33 pm
I’m in (I think). But I have not yet tested if it works
December 2nd, 2007 at 11:48 pm
I’m fairly new to all this tracking fujumyflip, but what the heck - here goes - in for a penny, in for a pound!
I’ve set up two more or less identical projects (one on the old system and the other on SC4). It should be interesting to see what kind of results they yield.
December 3rd, 2007 at 8:24 am
We would love to test it out..
December 3rd, 2007 at 10:05 am
I love you StatCounter!!!
December 3rd, 2007 at 2:49 pm
one of the best tracker !
December 3rd, 2007 at 4:41 pm
I’m ready for a volunteer.
Thank you for great stat counter.
December 4th, 2007 at 1:39 am
CooL
December 4th, 2007 at 2:00 am
volunteer for new stat counter
December 4th, 2007 at 4:45 am
Alright, there’s at least a difference of four entries between my regular project and the beta. Also, I visited my blog via Google’s cache and only the OLD StatCounter project detected it. The new one never picked it up.
I’ll be back if I see other such discrepancies.
December 4th, 2007 at 8:48 am
Thats great news! I want to be in too, but no success till the day.
Thanks
December 4th, 2007 at 10:58 am
My dad used to say, “Never volunteer for anything”!
I’ll make an exception for this though as I’m curious to see how it works.
December 4th, 2007 at 1:13 pm
I would like to become a test team member.
December 4th, 2007 at 7:09 pm
i offer myself
December 4th, 2007 at 10:06 pm
its very good
December 4th, 2007 at 10:12 pm
Iam beta tester
December 5th, 2007 at 1:23 am
Upload to test it now.
December 5th, 2007 at 5:30 am
Hey count me in too. Thanks
December 5th, 2007 at 11:46 am
What the heck, always game for a challenge, let me at it!
December 5th, 2007 at 4:02 pm
The address that the beta is using continues to fail out, preventing some of my site pages from loading. The count different varies radically - some days beta is far higher than the regular number, other days like today, the beta is far lower. Just giving feedback.
December 5th, 2007 at 10:05 pm
I am not sure that I am getting into the new version, when I log in it still says testers required, but any that programme is great what ever I am looking at, thanks
December 7th, 2007 at 3:32 pm
Ok this seems like a quite a small challange…
anyway i’m in.
December 7th, 2007 at 7:15 pm
I include your Offer of Testing !
Would you like to have affiliate program on my blog?
http://larkana.blogspot.com/
December 7th, 2007 at 8:29 pm
Good job, but it will be even better if we have the following stats as well:
1) the language of the operating system the visitor is using
2) visitor’s time zone
3) visitor’s time
December 7th, 2007 at 10:41 pm
I took the option to be a tester and just wondering: is it no more working?? While the “old” counter is showing visits etc. the new one no more….
Seen it in particular with a Shark video that creates some traffic on my blog.In general thanks for a great free service. I try several different ones but you are the best for a “weekend-warrior” like me…
December 8th, 2007 at 12:21 am
@Paceon:
same here… the old counter is showing a few houndred page loads, and the new one is showing only two page loads.
December 8th, 2007 at 3:54 am
I’m testing it now. will report for anything..
Good job SC team!
December 8th, 2007 at 11:09 am
This shows you are a really great company. Always thinking an improving yourselves.
December 8th, 2007 at 11:33 am
Same is happening to me for the last 2-3 days, the new one (EG, today) has so far only shown 4 visitors while the original one has just over 50.
December 8th, 2007 at 1:01 pm
My visitor count for the beta is significantly lower than for SC3. This is very concerning as I would hate to report back to my team that our visits have dropped by 20% when they haven’t (or worse, that they were actually 20% lower!)
December 8th, 2007 at 1:09 pm
the beta version is not working since thursday
December 8th, 2007 at 1:17 pm
My beta counter did a good job the first few days but since a day or 3 to 4 the difference with the old one it shows a few hundred to a few thousand visitors less than the old counter!!!!
I compared it with Google Analytics which I also use for comparison. The old Statcounter was closer to Google totals and the new one was really not even close!
Today (Saturday) my entire site was messed up because all of a sudden the new script seems to want to show text; a sort of hidden image and hyperlink in every page. We wanted an invisible counter but alas.. We had to remove the beta counter script in order to keep measuring. The layout of a lot of pages was stretched (statcounter script used for ‘alt’)
Best thing I like are the new extras: the exit links and downloads!! I just hope you will be able to fix all bugs soon so we can use it without worries..
December 9th, 2007 at 7:07 am
I’m in. I know how hard it is to find beta testers, so I’m all for it!
I’ll let you know how it goes! So far, the normal counter is awesome!
December 9th, 2007 at 7:11 am
Ok
Installed the code. The Large and Stylish fonts are not selectable, when I do, and click “update” to preview the counter, those settings are missing.
Also, the transparent background seems to be missing.
December 9th, 2007 at 3:26 pm
I’d like to test SC4 ^^
December 9th, 2007 at 4:54 pm
Code installed and new account created, but all the counters at 0. Seems that it doesn’t work.
December 9th, 2007 at 5:47 pm
Hey My counter went dead or it only seems to record half the counts but if I refresh this post I made http://senseless.livejournal.com/243355.html it doesn’t get recorded although it worked fine a couple days ago. I have a standard Statcounter counter in the post before it and that one counts just fine.
I think this has been going on for a few days because the standard counter shows lots of page hits before and after this post but nothing on the post with the new breed of tracker. I added a second tracker to another post after the SC4 and I get duplicate hits at the same time which means most people are reading my blog from the main page and not as individual posts. I get my standard traffic but the SC4 is only recording a handfull of hits everyday.
I hope this makes some sense. Is it a bug?
December 9th, 2007 at 6:30 pm
First of all, I’d like to say that I’m glad you not only add new features (the current ones are enough for me), but keep improving existing ones. Good job!
Senseless, you might want to report that to them on forum.
http://forum.statcounter.com/vb/
There’s a part for bug reporting.
December 10th, 2007 at 1:13 am
thanks for the information… keep up the excellent work
December 10th, 2007 at 3:06 am
All right now. It rules
December 10th, 2007 at 3:28 am
I have major discrepancies between my old counter and the new. The old is showing 100 hits, and the new only 4. It’s been getting steadily worse, since Saturday.
December 10th, 2007 at 8:15 am
I’ve just included the new code on my pages, and found that:
Even though I ticked off for the “invisible” option, the code I received included the parameter “invisible=” set to 0. I changed this to 1, and it now seems OK.
I loaded a few pages from a client not in my exclude list, and the hits show up on the old counter, but not in the beta.
Thanks, Egil
December 10th, 2007 at 1:33 pm
A request, bring StatCounter in Dutch! I am volunteer to translate
December 11th, 2007 at 2:03 pm
The French translation of the instructions is full of grammatical errors and jokes, just so you know..
December 11th, 2007 at 6:32 pm
I second Sonja.Bakker fan ♦ A Dutch translation would be great.
I also volunteer for testing.
Rob
December 12th, 2007 at 8:38 am
It’s obviously reporting less visitors, page loads look ok (reporting 0 visitors and a number of page loads, checked right after midnight). other than that, no bugs so far. Thanks for the improvements
December 12th, 2007 at 10:15 am
I want to add the new counter to our website
December 12th, 2007 at 9:53 pm
I have the code for both the old and beta counters on one page and I have been getting different results? Am I missing something?
December 13th, 2007 at 4:43 am
Hello! I would like to volunteer, but every time I click on the link, it takes me back to login and it says “login failed”.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thank you!
December 13th, 2007 at 3:54 pm
My friend asked me to use Statcounter’s service. Today, I visit Statcounter site, forum and blog and I believe Statcounter now. I will try out your new counter.
December 13th, 2007 at 7:06 pm
Whatever was causing it not to count for a few days seems to have resolved itself.
December 14th, 2007 at 3:22 am
nice to see the new addition
December 14th, 2007 at 5:08 am
great addition… thanks… keep up the good work
btw for xmas can you guys up the cache
:) thanks
December 14th, 2007 at 7:21 am
I am in for this test code…
really happy to see you guys moving ahead!!!!!
December 14th, 2007 at 9:03 am
my statcounter is not counting visitors and only pageloads.
December 14th, 2007 at 12:29 pm
I am pleased to be offered the opportunity to participate in this beta test and hope my involvement will help StatCounter continue to develop its excellent service.
December 14th, 2007 at 8:03 pm
Hi, It’s greate to see the new version, I’m in for the test….
Nice job
December 14th, 2007 at 11:30 pm
I´m glad to test this Beta. Congratulatios, you´re doing a great work!
December 15th, 2007 at 9:21 am
I am really eagerly waiting for this new SC4 version . I am already using statcounter for all my websites and really enjoy the results.
Thanks again.
December 15th, 2007 at 3:09 pm
Great - More productivity down the Pan checking my stats. Its nearly as bad as having a Facebook account!
Only kidding! Cosybike.co.uk loves to know where her visitors are coming from and just needs Antartica, Greenland and Iceland to complete a visit from every major landmass. However I would actually prefer it if they actually came in person, with loads of cash! (This feature will be in SC 5 BTW!!)
December 15th, 2007 at 3:56 pm
Cool, I am taking part in this beta testing
December 15th, 2007 at 4:38 pm
Great, keep it up!
December 15th, 2007 at 5:11 pm
To get started:
* Login to StatCounter with the “remember me” option
* Point your browser at this URL
http://my.statcounter.com/project/standard/add.php?sc4=1
* If successful the form should now read “BETA TEST SC4 PROJECT SETTINGS” then proceed as normal to install this new code below your current code.
***********************************************************
I’m following these directions but the form does not say “Beta Test SC4 Project” so I’m not sure I’m doing anything other than creating another project in the old version. Any thoughts?
Thanks
December 15th, 2007 at 10:50 pm
I put 2 beta codes but they did not send any info. Old code shows 7 visits today but any of beta codes show no visits.
December 15th, 2007 at 11:03 pm
My beta project is counting logs and some times new visitors but the number of visitors is going down to 0.
It looks that the beta project is counting much more logs then the old one, but at the moment the problem is the visitors number going null.
Thanks
Baptista
December 16th, 2007 at 1:09 am
A week after, it seems work, but no exit links and not downloads
Regards.
December 16th, 2007 at 3:15 pm
I have tried out the new and improved StatCounter SC4 on one of my sites for two weeks. It done excellent job.
Thanks!
December 17th, 2007 at 4:11 am
I know that I’m a bit late for this but I’ll participate.
I’ll put the code onto my site tonight.
December 17th, 2007 at 8:36 am
no istructions for Firefox browser there…
December 17th, 2007 at 5:32 pm
I always like this statcounter which will show the excellent statistics of the website.
Thank you statcounter team , i hope more things are going to come and hope very good widgets and good links to the bloggers also soon.
thanks
i use this in
http://teluguswan.tripod.com
http://teluguswanhot.blogspot.com
and more thanks once again for providing this free also
December 17th, 2007 at 9:31 pm
The new counter looks good, I like the increased log size and keyword analytics are improved. I do wonder about the difference in number of visits between the old counter and the beta version. Sometimes the beta shows higher visitor numbers a day, sometimes lower. It’s hard to find out about the differences, I do hope both versions will get more closely related in number of visitors before the new code will be brought to alpha stage.
December 18th, 2007 at 4:26 am
great news.
I’ll give it a try later on.
December 18th, 2007 at 5:32 am
great! i’ll give a try
December 19th, 2007 at 6:11 am
Nice , will be of more help . . . gonna give a try on my all 50 blogs . .
December 19th, 2007 at 9:42 am
Prefect, I can’t waiting to try it

Looking forward to the final release! Good Luck with the finalization of the project!!!! StatCounter Rocks!
December 20th, 2007 at 7:07 pm
One suggestion.. on the main page “My Projects” it would be nice if those were VISITORS and not PAGELOADS… Just an opinion…
December 21st, 2007 at 10:23 pm
Keep up the good work.
When will the testing be over?
December 22nd, 2007 at 12:38 am

December 22nd, 2007 at 1:20 am
i have tryed, ist very good
December 22nd, 2007 at 10:32 am
signed for testing.
old - id - 3108166
new id - 3276377
Is this correct or did i do a mistake during the sign up process ??
December 22nd, 2007 at 12:59 pm
You made a mistake @ techweb. .. lol joking!
December 22nd, 2007 at 10:32 pm
Statcounter is inproving but not prefect wet.
December 23rd, 2007 at 1:16 pm
I have 2 counters pointed 2 the same place - one of them is from the testing program,
today test counter dropped 4 visits - something goes wrong?
Thanks
December 23rd, 2007 at 5:12 pm
I also have 2 counters, old and beta, on the same site. Old is now 77 today, beta is zero(0)! Until yesterday both was almost equal.
December 23rd, 2007 at 8:10 pm
I am a new subscriber and I want to know how beneficial this will be to me.
December 23rd, 2007 at 8:11 pm
Can you make me know if I really have a website that will be recognised by everyone.
December 23rd, 2007 at 8:19 pm
pls remind me my code
December 24th, 2007 at 9:33 pm
Loading the beta counter in the footer has slowed down graphics loading on my site. This is a new problem that I had not encountered before.
Also, I am also getting 0 on the visitors for the beta as compared to some on the SC3.
Thanx.
December 25th, 2007 at 4:00 am
Hey, it’s great!
December 25th, 2007 at 9:30 am
Great Job :-bd
December 25th, 2007 at 10:13 pm
I like the fact that the beta offers 500 for free rather than last 100 visits saved, but like others, I’m finding it’s missing a lot of visits. Today, for instance, the old statcounter project is showing 8 visitors while the beta has only caught one of them.
December 26th, 2007 at 4:38 pm
Keep up the good work……..all success for your project
December 27th, 2007 at 12:57 am
Hi Statcounter team. Really thanks for your good work. I would like to participate to the beta testing but at this moment I can use internet very rarely so my help would be very useless
Again many thanks to the team and all beta testers!!!
December 27th, 2007 at 6:40 am
Today I have equal hits by old and beta 16-16, same IP:s. Yesterday 140-136.

i have always loved statcounter, infact the very first day i used statcounter it guided me a new direction. as fars as sc4 is considered i’m willing to use it on one of my website to see the difference…:)
December 28th, 2007 at 9:13 pm
I like this idea but am always paranoid it\’ll cause problems for my site.
December 28th, 2007 at 10:16 pm
count with me
December 29th, 2007 at 12:13 am
As noted by others I am seeing stat differences between the two versions. I have 1000 entries set for sc3 and the standard 500 for sc4 which could explain a difference when searching but as I understand it will not affect the actual stats????
December 29th, 2007 at 4:31 am
selectcreditcard.com and its partners will test the new statcounter.com asap. Will we loose the old stats? Our credit card partners rely on this program tremendously. Thanks Again
Happy New Year!!

January 4th, 2008 at 8:57 pm
Gotta love new development… I look forward to the improvements on an already great stat counter. Thanks for all the hard work!
January 6th, 2008 at 7:13 pm
Which is right? My beta counter is show 2-times the hits of my old counter? This has been happening for days.
January 7th, 2008 at 2:48 pm
hi,
i am using the new statcounter but why does it seems to count less than the “old” one ?
January 7th, 2008 at 3:56 pm
Best of luck to Stat counter team. All the best.

Exit Links counter does not appear to be working on Beta test.
January 10th, 2008 at 6:59 pm
When is the testing finished? is there still a chance to suggest other improvements? or would that have to come in another release?
January 11th, 2008 at 2:22 am
When is the test of beta finished? Anyone recommend switching to SC4 now or shall I wait for the finished product….
January 12th, 2008 at 7:26 am
Gutes Neues Jahr 2008.!
January 12th, 2008 at 9:10 am
Why there is some different number page views betwen the old statcounter and this beta statcounter ( i put 2 kind of statcounter in my site )? any way thanks for great service and keep it free
January 14th, 2008 at 1:31 am
I don’t understand the discrepancy between the page views in SC3 and SC4. Is it due to user settings on their computer?
January 14th, 2008 at 9:40 pm
Not really sure what should happen with the Exit Links - I haven’t had any entries here since I installed the BETA version a few days ago. Are these for links on my site that leave for an external site? I only ever use ‘_blank’ property, so will I never see anything here?
January 15th, 2008 at 6:02 am
testing the SC4.
January 15th, 2008 at 6:59 am
Great effort to enhance the functinality.
Thanks to statecounter Team.
January 16th, 2008 at 6:56 pm
Great effort… I need to try this new StatCounter SC4 ASAP, but my site is still under construction and I hope to put the code within this month or early next month.
Thanks for the good effort been done… I love the current statcounter and hope the new version statcounter much better then this.
January 17th, 2008 at 4:42 am

January 26th, 2008 at 11:26 pm
I would like to hook-up to the new beta set-up. There has got to be an easier way. I’m old school. Couldn’t a fill-in and click be set-up with authouization etc.
January 27th, 2008 at 7:32 am
The Beta is really bad. never the same as the site counter
January 28th, 2008 at 1:31 am
I just installed both the old and the SC4 counter on my brand new site. Let’s see what happens next. Keep up the very good work at SC. Cheers
January 28th, 2008 at 4:28 pm
I just installed the beta counter on my site. Let’s see what happens next.
January 28th, 2008 at 6:47 pm
I have installed the Code on my Home Page!!! Will update you with the latest stats
January 29th, 2008 at 10:35 am
I notice that the IP Blocking does not seem to work yet on the Beta Counter. A gap is being digged by me between the two counters (standard and old) correctly configured for blocking my own IP.
January 29th, 2008 at 2:09 pm
It is blocking well, and the beta counter is improving a lot.
thanks
January 30th, 2008 at 4:47 am
We’ll join the gang when get a bit time…maybe this week allready
January 30th, 2008 at 7:00 am
Now i am also a beta tester with my blog: http://mondolibero.wordpress.com/
January 30th, 2008 at 7:43 am
Blocking my own IP still doesn’t work! Since yesterday.
January 30th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
I’m now a tester, i hope you’re so glad to upgrade my account for more than 100 visitors.
It woud be great!!!, and.. i wanna know if my old staticst don’t loss when you start the new system.
Bye
January 30th, 2008 at 7:46 pm
I’m now a tester as well thanks to statscounter
February 1st, 2008 at 1:41 pm
I haven’t been beta testing, just checked in here to see what might be the problem with the regular version. For about two days now I can no longer get Statcounter with Firefox, my usual browser. Instead I have to use MSIE.
February 3rd, 2008 at 12:57 am
A great improvement !
February 4th, 2008 at 11:28 am
I guess the new service will be really cool. I am glad to help with some testing.
February 5th, 2008 at 3:43 am
I’m a tester, tnx
February 5th, 2008 at 5:31 pm
Installed Beta yesterday.
Today at this time the existing counter shows 104
The beta shows 166 ????
Maybe a problem.
February 5th, 2008 at 6:40 pm
We started the new statcounter today on our web site http://www.findnetdeals.com

Seems the Beta counter does not record visitors on my site.
February 7th, 2008 at 3:14 pm
Hello Webmaster,
The percentage off the old counter and the new counter are not the same. I’ts now 12:7 ???

Greetings from the Netherlands,

February 10th, 2008 at 1:44 am
I’ve joined the beta testing. Looks better than the old counter.
February 10th, 2008 at 3:58 pm
With the BETA version, the Downloads report does not show those who download by using “Save Target as…” — it only shows a record of those who directly click on the link. This is not so helpful, as people want to save the PDF that we are offering on our site. Will this be changed to incorporate these people too?
February 10th, 2008 at 10:36 pm
I will be glad to help with testing and improving of BETA version.
February 12th, 2008 at 12:02 am
I think I am testing the beta version as well since 15 minutes.
Thanks, very interesting, everything you can do with the ‘old’ version already, just installed that one a couple of days ago
February 12th, 2008 at 2:09 pm

February 12th, 2008 at 2:11 pm

February 12th, 2008 at 3:29 pm
I like it a lot! Nice site, I will bookmark!
February 12th, 2008 at 6:00 pm
OK, I encountered the first problem/strange thing.
In the ‘old’ StatCounter I get two visits from Mountain view
In the beta I get two visits from New York and than one from Mountain view.
The times are the same in both.
Another thing is, in both systems, the visit time that is given is the time in between the first and the last visit, and not the time people spend at your site!?
February 13th, 2008 at 2:27 am
Hi Again,
I also got 2 different IP-addresses for the same person!!! How is this possible??
Of course on the same computer!
February 13th, 2008 at 2:29 am
sorry the website was wrong
February 14th, 2008 at 12:44 pm
Hi
Started new site and placed both counters there. Wait now for the visitors.
February 15th, 2008 at 9:19 pm
sc4 is now loging the double on my site.
This is great as I double my visitors from the sc3 to the sc4.
Thanks for your suport.

February 15th, 2008 at 10:48 pm
sc4 stopped loging today at 17:43 (Brussels time) the SC3 is still loging!
How do I resolve this?
February 17th, 2008 at 2:04 am
I installed the beta a week ago and now it’s not working. In the last 2 days the counter freezed. It worked well before?
February 17th, 2008 at 2:05 am
And also all the counters show that i have visits for just 5 sec
February 17th, 2008 at 9:55 am
i just installed the code then went to my site and went to another site linked from mine and then checked the stats and it doesnt show that there was any traffic ?? ? ? ? ?
February 17th, 2008 at 12:34 pm
The new code doesnt work now?????????
February 18th, 2008 at 1:44 am
I too established approximately one week ago, and now does not work…
February 18th, 2008 at 8:46 pm
Beta died !!!! No hits being recorded, old one is still going strong …. whats up with that ???
February 19th, 2008 at 5:58 am
The Beta counter is not logging since friday, they are working on it
Everything is logged though, you only can’t see it (yet), like I said they are putting everything back in order.
Take a look at the forum for more updated info
February 19th, 2008 at 8:26 am
Added code today
February 19th, 2008 at 1:06 pm
More than happy to be a Beta Tester.
February 19th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
Everything is not LOGGED Goemie, I’m running the old and new BETA counters and the BETA version only shows HALF the volume of the hits from yesterday ….
but seems to be inline so far today …. but visits over the past few days are def. skewed ……
February 20th, 2008 at 11:32 am
Can i use it in my existing project.
thanks in advance

Cannot wait for the new statcounter release. Have been using current one for over a year now and I love it. It is an addiction… I am wondering if you can use the old one and new one at the same time or it just would not make any difference.
March 1st, 2008 at 1:21 pm
I added the beta code as per your instructions. First day showed to function perfectly giving me some lectures beside the old one but on feb 29 did not work at all. Give no reading at all!.

March 1st, 2008 at 4:58 pm
This sounds like its going to be better, I use nothing but statcounter for analyzing my traffic. I will be putting the beta on my sites.
March 2nd, 2008 at 4:32 am
I added the beta code below my standard code about a month ago. I always see both figures! Mostly, it has worked well.
At first the count of the beta code lagged behind the standard. Now it is quite even in its count.
Two days ago there was no count at all, but now it is normal, and the total count is appropriate — so it must have been counting in the background. I like it and it is interesting and helpful.
March 3rd, 2008 at 8:44 pm
great, i will try this beta.
March 4th, 2008 at 3:12 am
great…. i’m in… good work…
March 4th, 2008 at 5:21 am
Glad to be of some help to Statcounter for a change. Love the features and options - can’t thank you guys enough for letting us all use your program. http://www.crittergetteronline.com is forever indentured.
March 5th, 2008 at 3:21 pm
I offer to be a beta tester. Thanks again for the free tool.

it is nice to know that our statcounter are improving day by day
thank god
March 7th, 2008 at 8:51 am
I suggest you should also add the url when the browsers or visitors visit the site since it is a tracker.
More power to your endeavor.
March 7th, 2008 at 10:41 pm
It’s working great!!!
March 8th, 2008 at 6:08 pm
I’m willing to try out the BETA version to help improve StatCounter.
March 9th, 2008 at 5:15 am
Can Someone tell me,
after I copy the code to the wordpad and save it,
how can I “PUBLISH” it?
I don’t know and I can’t use it at all…
March 9th, 2008 at 7:49 am
The count for the SC4 is normally less than that for the previous stable version. Sometimes, the counter doesn’t show any hits in a day.
March 9th, 2008 at 8:01 am
The option where to show “Every Pageload” as counter is not working. It is still showing unique visits.
March 10th, 2008 at 4:43 pm
I’m happy to participate in the beta test. Include me!
March 10th, 2008 at 6:32 pm
Hi
Have tried to load the SC4 test but the page to get the code will not open.

I install the Beta yesterday an am amaze that beta is getting 47% more page views that standard statcounter and I did not but beta on all my pages. Many of the addition pages are the entry page. Only about 1% can be attributed to the exit URL. I am ready to migrate my data to the beta and use it on all my sites.
March 13th, 2008 at 8:56 am
Tried to add my site to beta but cannot gain entry. Cookies are allowed in browser but it keeps saying “you are not logged in” Help
March 13th, 2008 at 8:59 am
Tried to add another site to beta but with same results as above.
March 13th, 2008 at 8:45 pm
Great stats, i am using it everyday.
I added a new site from blogger and it does not count yet…?
March 14th, 2008 at 3:13 pm

March 21st, 2008 at 5:04 pm
I’ve added different blogs using both the cut and past option and the pre-programmed option. The blogs appear in the Statcounter list of projects, but do not count. All zeros. What am I doing wrong?
PS - I use Firefox.
March 21st, 2008 at 6:39 pm

April 23rd, 2008 at 4:10 am
Testing the beta version, looking forward to seeing the exit link results. Great service… thanks!
April 23rd, 2008 at 5:35 am
SC4 looks interesting. I was wondering, once your quota of the 500 records are hit, that you simply archive the stats, email ‘em to the user’s email, and then delete the stats (the records) and reset the stat quota to 0, and keep the amount of hits still intact. That way, it’s simple and effiencent.
Other than that, I’m eager to test SC4 out.

I have noticed that there are some discrepancies between the beta counter and the original one. Today it missed a couple of visitors and about 7 page loads.
May 2nd, 2008 at 10:31 pm
Mine stopped logging any hits (including mine)…. the last recorded was on May 1st at 7:40am …. prior to that, it was me at 5:40am…..
It gets worse…. my other site has the beta stats, and it stopped logging anything as of April 30th.
Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me??? The codes are still the same… I did not do anything different to it.
Any responses would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
