[Tech] Web Site Traffic Measurement

Just a quick post to recommend statcounter for measuring traffic to your web site. I have been trying it for a few weeks now and like the fact that you can use it to keep track of several web sites. You can see who is visiting your site, how long they are spending on it, what key words (if any!) the search engines are using to send traffic your way etc. Its also free and does not require you to put a banner or other market on your site. It also works with blogger and the other blog services you just need to cut and paste the code into the template in the correct space, see the instructions for more detail on this.

While you are at it you might as well get on the waiting list for Google Analytics, I put my name on a month or more ago but have not heard anything. Its gotten great reviews.
