I sometimes like to explore Google Analytics. It can be quite fascinating what information can be gathered from that program alone. It might be nice to share some of the information with you. I’m not talking about content information but visitor information, information about you.
Some information could give clues on where the Ghacks visitors come from, what browser and operating system they use, the speed of their Internet connection and if they brush their teeth every morning.
Google Analytics is almost the default free service for any blogger, and for good reason. It’s a solid service, essential for anyone needing to track visitor statistics and create a successful blog.
The biggest complaint I hear around however is over the fact Google Analytics doesn’t have any kind of ‘live tracking’ functions, statistics refresh just once per 24hours which can become a pain with time.
