Blog tools to track Visitors for your blog







For any blogger, checking blog statistics to assess whether more or fewer people are reading what he writes is very important. For instance, which type of content visitors are reading, which country is contributing to maximum number of users and page views. For tracking the website or blog visitors there are many free tools available on internet. The process of using these tools is very simple. Just you have to register on their site, add your blog to the control panel and then add their piece of code inside the body of your blog. I have collected information on 7 most popular blog or website tracking tools on internet. Let’s discuss one by one.
IceRocket Blog Tracker :: It is a completely free invisible tracker that will count your blog visits and other blog statistics. All you need to do is register for an account, add your blog and insert a small piece of code into your blog so after adding the code, the tracker starts gathering statistics for your blog. Then you will be able to analyse and monitor all the visits to your blog in real-time. It is very efficient tracker so I use it for my blog.












Google Analytics :: It is another famous tool for tracking website visitors by Google. It is very easy to use and has very clean interface. It provides comprehensive details of the traffic, its traffic pie charts and graphs are very effective in analyzing the growth of the website. It is one of the most widely used tracker across the internet.
Salient features of Google Analytics –
Just paste the Google Analytics tracking code into each of your website pages and tracking begins immediately.
It tracks and compares all your ads, email newsletters, affiliate campaigns, referrals, paid links, and keywords on Google and other search engines.
You can buy keywords on Google AdWords and use Google Analytics to learn which keywords are most profitable to your business.
Trace transactions to campaigns and keywords, get loyalty and latency metrics, and identify your revenue sources.
With google analytics, you can find out where your visitors come from and identify your most lucrative geographic markets.
SiteMeter :: Site Meter’s comprehensive real time website tracking and counter tools give you instant access to vital information and data about your sites audience. With the detailed reporting you’ll have a clear picture of who is visiting your site, how they found you, where they came from, what interests them and much more.
Webalizer and Awstats :: My hosting site hostgator is providing two different web stats programs on the log files for this site Webalizer and Awstats. With every cpanel hosting these trackers come free. For tracking the website you don’t need to do anything, they automatically starts tracking when your site becomes online from that server. Webalizer doesn’t distinguish between human visitors and automated requests (bots etc.), whereas AWStats tries to distinguish between the two. So in my opinion, you can rely on Webalizer stats.
StatCounter :: A reliable free invisible web tracker, highly configurable hit counter and real-time detailed web stats. Just you have to register on the site and insert a simple piece of our code on your web page or blog and you will be able to analyse and monitor all the visitors to your website in real-time.
MyBlogLog :: It is the largest blogging directory and community on internet that also provides statistics tracking to registered users of the site. Registration is free. However, the statistics provided by MyBlogLog are not as robust as those provided by other stat trackers like sitemeter, icerocket, statcounter, google analytics etc.
Out of these 7 trackers, I use all of them except google analytics and statcounter. But if you are running a blog and want a good tracker, then I will recommend icerocket’s blogtracker.
