Statcounter Software

For the purposes of tracking the activity on my relatively simple website, this app gives me everything I need. The website is comprehensive and the iPhone app is convenient.

I have been using the computer desktop version of this app for many years, and I find it superior to Google Analytics in many ways, although each have their strengths in regards to tracking visitors to a website. I can track several projects (i.e., different websites) in a free account (limited to a log of 500 entries per project), and the data tells me—in real time—who visited my site, when they visited, what pages they touched, how long they hung around, what keywords were used, what browser was used, what their IP address is, what country/state/city they come from, and a whole raft of other useful information. I am very appreciative that the developers have gone ahead and applied their expertise to developing an app for the iPad and the iPhone (and other mobile devices). Anyone who wants to track traffic to a website ought to check out both the desktop application as well as this mobile app. It’s a winner.

This is a GREAT app for tracking website traffic with entry and exit pages plus so many other great features! However I like to track “daily” traffic patterns and with redesign the default is “7 days”. And to get reports, it takes so much more time to have to set “daily” for each result I am tracking. Developer needs to offer customization for default timeframe in settings. Do this and I’ll give app a 5 star rating!
