RapidWeaver FAQ - Statcounter and Google Analytics
I want to track my site visitors on all pages, and I'd like to use a service that tells me which pages visitors are looking at and what links they click etc. Is this possible with Rapidweaver and how?

CHAPTER 1: Statcounter
1.1 What does Statcounter provide?
The stat counter can be visible or invisible, you can make sure it doesn’t count you in when you visit your own pages, and it also provides fantastic information like:
- number of visitors
- which page did your visitors come from
- where they live
- how long they spent on each page
- how they navigated on your site (visitor path)
- which browser they used
- which system they are working on
- you get a graph showing the page loads over a week, month, year, ...
- popular pages
- and a lot more
Best is that it’s all real-time. Whereas with Google Analytics you have to wait for the day after to know how many visitors visits you got the day before.
I think one of the most useful things is that your can create a blocking cookie so it will not log your visits
Statcounter is a must have and it's FREE
1.2 Intro
Note that it works for both publishing to MobileMe and publishing to a server other than MobileMe via FTP.
Go to Statcounter.com and once you’ve signed up and created a project they will give you an HTML code to implement into the pages of your website.
1.3 How can I add Statcounter to my website?
Go to Setup => Advanced and paste the code you get when creating a project in Statcounter to the “Google Analytics” field.

Will be added soon....
