| 1315274 | 2012-11-29 00:10:00 | So nobody on site has any experience with this organization and what they are offering? I have been asked to give my opinion on whether or not it is a good deal but of course I too have no experience with this company so far. |

| 1315275 | 2012-11-29 01:09:00 | Are these for ad (affiliate) links to track? The free Google Analytics can track links, unique visits, referals, time on site, etc and much more in real time. But requires intial setup, including appending codes for link tracking. But can also set up custom variables, advanced segments, intelligence reports and their commonly used by businesses/marketers the popular event tracking. GA also has graphs including visitor flow chart. (support.google.com) | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||
| 1315276 | 2012-11-29 06:22:00 | The people that are asking me for my opinion are using Google Analytics at the moment and they are not getting the results they require which are basically the ability to drill down through the site reports to see how many cumulative hits any particular element on the site, ie a .jpg, over any given start and finish dates desired. Also require to know how many people actually open and click on links in their weekly email-out to customers. They used to use SmarterStats and were happy with it but their Hosting provider changed to AWStats which is not up to the task. |

| 1315277 | 2012-11-29 10:41:00 | Seems they were using the default GA, without applying their own coding tags/parameters. It depends to what extent was used in GA. GA can track anything clickable, within and linked to any site, element, downloads and any links within if you have admin access. I have tracked pdf downloads, emails, rss feeds and clickable links within them, back to my sites and blogs. Downside is you have to find the GA tags/codes to implement and test them or require coding experience. Their blog helps. But also GA handles regular expressions, onclick javascript, and the GA tags. (www.analyticsresults.com) Data can be automatically exported to spreadsheets/reports using their API. Though linktrack has an API as well. Otherwise there is the premium version, of which a GA pro tech manager is assigned along with many precoded tracking tags, custom graphing, and other metrics. Or a agency like linktrack where they do it, but surely all they are doing is appending their code to links. Then exporting to a stats report. Easy of course, as no advanced coding input by the web owner required. |
