Free Web Analytics -- SlimStat
I've been lucky enough to have reasonably decent statistics available through my host for most of my sites. But last week I set up a site at a new host, and the stats package they offer totally sucks.
My first thought was to use a free 3rd party stats provider, but why give them access to my stats info if I don't have to? I don't need 'em if I just install my own stats package on my server. But I wasn't really sure how to go about it. Then I found SlimStat.
I downloaded the software, uploaded it to my server, and followed the fairly simple instructions to get it installed. Took about 5 minutes to create a database, set a few variables, and then another 5 minutes to add a line of code to each webpage on the site. And that was it! I was done!
