Some really do more things better than others (data correlations, display, ease of use, etc.), but no package I’ve seen or used couldn’t be augmented by features of another. These assumptions are part of the differentiation - still, they are assumptions. All need to make certain assumptions about what should count as what, and what should not. They need to differentiate in order to prove they’re better or at least a better value. They are each pioneers and titans in the field of web analytics, and these books are fantastic.Īs for why different analytics packages don’t match up - they really don’t want to. Thankfully there’s plenty of alternatives.Ĭheck out the books Web Analytics Demystified by Eric Peterson and Web Analytics by Jim Sterne. Call me paranoid but Google does already know enough about me and my sites. I would be reluctant with Google Analytics. Rather expensive too (last time I looked at it), but it adds a fun element and does a pretty good job at showing patterns too. You might even want to look at Visitorville. They not only help you to streamline your page, but also do a great job in identifying vistor trends.
#AWSTATS MONTHLY SOFTWARE#
Have a look at Clicktracks – they even have a free software nowadays. It’s all about humans and patterns nowadays. Hits – especially pagehits and not visits – are 20th century stuff to impress suits to get a larger budget. As somebody mentioned before, it’s not about hits anymore, it’s about conversions. However, you seem to have missed a paradigm shift.
#AWSTATS MONTHLY UPGRADE#
However they charge you based on traffic, and once I crossed the first threshold (and needed to pay 600 EUR for the upgrade plus 80 EUR for the mandatory maintenance) it seems I reach more and more traffic faster and faster.

They take a split approach with setting cookies and tracking IP’s. Webtrends does a pretty good job on differentiating between hits and visits. I’m using Webtrends for years, though they are charging an arm and a leg for their software (PLUS the latest release needed outrageously expensive hardware to run on ).
