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!

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 🙂
Search Engine Wars seems to count the old stat though and show it in the new stats, seems like a little bug 🙂
Using Statcounter for a while and looking to test SC4! I am in!
I’m in 🙂
Only too happy to help test! Best wishes to all StatCounter fans!
I’m in 🙂
Back to SC after a while away, it whacks anything else. Mmmm….so let’s see what this new thingamabob is.
Sure, I’ll test it out. I’ll try to make the best singing telegram feedback ever!
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 😉

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.
So I installed the Test Code. Let’s see what happens next 😛
Btw, is it a free or paid once it is released finally?
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?
Great news,
Yes please!
Great, I am a beta tester now.
Great news!
I’d like to test SC4.
Hola Andylat,

To get started:
Para empezar:
Iniciar sesión en Statcounter con la opción “remember me” seleccionada.
Despues abre esta dirección URL
