Goodbye Webalizer, Hello Google Analytics!
Google Analytics was announced today, and it’s a big step forward for webmasters and web metrics.
Urchin, which Google bought earlier this year and used as a foundation for Analytics, was a nice product. A little expensive, but the reports were definitely a step ahead of the competition. The installation was hideous, though, [...]
