Free website stat counter?

[367squadron]

I've been using statcounter for a few months now to track which websites people visiting mine have come from, which city accessed from and so on. The free statcounter is only for the first 500 logins.

 

Does anybody know another free one where i can track these sort of results and it's invisible on my website.

 

Would be grateful for any suggestions.

 

Cheers,

Gary

Does your host not provide you with cPanel or something similar?

 

http://www.yourdomain.com/cpanel with your username and password, then you have access to awstats etc, all free. Aussuming your host provides it of course.

google analytics here also - but make sure you chose the newer code - the old one ?urchin? is being phased out

 

The new one promises to have "great new features"

for a javascript free solution, you can always use slimstat, which uses php and a mysql database.

if you have php you can write a very simple one of your own

Or a very complex one if you're experienced in php:thumbsup:.

 

You can also dl and install AWstats onto any domain odf your choice:)

The free statcounter is for the last 500 accesses, not the first, so it will always contain the most recent activity. I like statcounter, but 500 can be a bit limiting...

Be careful with awstats if you decide to use that, if you use it in any way other than cron jobs to generate static stats pages it's apparently quite insecure.

 

If you have proper server access & anything Red Hat based webalizer will already be installed, it's like awstats except not quite so pretty.

 

Awstats & webalizer both work from the apache server logs, so the information they give you is pretty much identical. But they may not be so easy to install if you only have normal ftp access as you have to specify the full path to your site's server logs.
