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 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.
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

Keep up the good work.
When will the testing be over?
One suggestion.. on the main page “My Projects” it would be nice if those were VISITORS and not PAGELOADS… Just an opinion…
http://www.north-outlet.com is more than happy to be a beta tester!
Looking forward to the final release! Good Luck with the finalization of the project!!!! StatCounter Rocks!

Prefect, I can’t waiting to try it
Nice , will be of more help . . . gonna give a try on my all 50 blogs . .
great! i’ll give a try 😉
great news.
I’ll give it a try later on.
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.
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
