Site Analytics
Having received a great link back from Gyutae on his website regarding my previous post, it suddenly dawned on me that I don’t currently have any analytics software configured to track my visitor numbers on this website.
Looking through my options I have decided to go with Google Analytics. It is simple to see what data I need and I am used to the layout, having used it on various other websites.
There was one other major contender for use on this site, Mint. I currently use Mint on one other website and the statistics it provides are extremely useful and presented in a way that just makes sense. There are two things I really like, the first being the expandability of Mint, people are actively encouraged to use the API and develop their own peppers (plug-ins) for others to use. The other feature is that everything is displayed on one page and any navigation is performed via AJAX so you never actually leave the first screen.
As this website is in its infancy and I am trying my best not to spend any money, I’m shying away from the $30 price tag that comes with it. Although, give me a few weeks and I’ll probably go ahead and give it a whirl on here.
