Analytic tools For Better Optimization Of your Blog

Everyone wants to keep track of the kind of visitors they are getting on their blog or site. So that they can improve their contents or may be able to provide targeted content.That's why adsense is getting succeded.

Know your Audience

is the funda behind the success on web blogosphere.

Various analytics tools are available on the web. Some are free and some are paid. One among the most used is google analytics . But some people are really scared of it because of its privacy intervention. If you are on a slower internet connection, you will be able to notice that each thin that you do with gooogle will be stored as all link requests pass through ssl.google-analytics.com . Google is scrutinizing each and everything on web and that's why people are getting more and more frustrated. It would be a blog or may be a whole website if I will start scruitnizing Google's privacy policy, So its better to leave the topic for some other day.

One more good tool available out there is Feedburner . This also really cool. But is limited to few stats in its free version

Recently i have found a new service by ewebcounter, The site is really cool and provide cool information about visitors. The cool thing about it is its real time stats which may not be much of use to a blogger but it can be fun to play with. You can see who's online on your website.

Isn't it cool?

It also provides IP lookup on Google MAPs. Now that's what i found interesting. Its also a toy like facility.
So If you are joining them you will get the following facilities(since I'm not a flattering kind of person so I have copied these features from their homepage, but i guess you will get much more than that):

• A 100% free web counter that be can installed on virtually any website

• A wide assortment of invisible and graphical web counter styles to choose from

• A password protected account to view your detailed web statistics

• We provide a hosted solution, so there's no software for you to install and to maintain

• Over 20+ web statistical reports with detailed logs and charts

• Monitor who's on your website with real-time streaming data

• Track page views, unique visitors, visitor paths, referrals, search engine keywords, etc.

• Get statistical reports emailed to you

One more cool thing that it provide is pie charts for all the infos (viz country, ISP, browser, Platform, activity, referral, search engine, keywords, length of the session, pages visited) about visitors to you site. It has tonnes of information about your visitors, is very easy to use and install, but is limited to only 200 reports at a time in its free version. But you can upgrade it whenever you want. If you won't believe me then check it out yourself. I bet you won't be regretting about your decision to follow my advice. Check it Out for yourself

SAS and Piracy

Google has really done a great job. Imagine a future
where there won't be any software available on your pc. Your OS won't
allow you to install anything because of compatibility issues. hehe.
or it is also possible that there won't be any OS at all. You will just have firefox installed on your computer. You login using your Google id in your SAS account. It will ask you what software you want to start and you choose... let's say MS .net, high system configuration will not be needed. All you need is high speed internet connection.

Started enjoying it? Think Again Just imagine how 'dangerous' it can be for
pirates like us. hehe. You have to buy user license for it and NO, you won't
be able to share it with your frnd. You won't be able to crack it because
application will not be available on your system, only frontend will
be accessible. The big daddy of hackers may be able to hack into google server
and create a free account, but as far as novices like us are concerned they have to fish out their money. So no privacy OOPS! piracy at all. Since applications will
be used in realtime, so the number of logons will be available to the
provider and it will be able to deny access to your friend who's
trying to use the same user id.

NO PIRACY MEANS NO PIRACY.

No one will Trust you. You want to play music? Then buy it and hear it online.
That will be so cool, huh!. Everything that you do with your PC will be monitored and moderated. We will have a "crime free" world where you can't even see your faviorite movie on your PC if you didn't buy it. So should we support SAS?

Hey one more thing, The motto of Google is don't be evil. I hope they are not preaching this to us. What if they start forcing it on us. Scared??? If Microsoft is The Satan of technolgy then If Google is the christ of technology? Who wants a goodie- goodie sort of thing. We all just want to be human. Isn't it.

Hail Google!
