Google Analytics

Two days ago, I tried using the new Google Analytics for this website. I was impressed on the first day when I saw all the good features on this tool. You'll find full featured dashboards that aids executives, marketer, and webmasters. But on the second day, it just stopped working. But first of all, some of you are still probably asking what is Google Analytics?

Google Analytics tells you everything you want to know about how your visitors found you and how they interact with your site. You'll be able to focus your marketing resources on campaigns and initiatives that deliver ROI, and improve your site to convert more visitors - Google.

This suite of application is what normally big website owners pay for thousands of dollars. And it's all free from Google! But I guess the large number of site owners who started using it made Google Analytics unstable. There's already a lot of reports that it stopped working for a number of users. I guess we just have to wait until Google fixed it.

UPDATE: I now see the rest of my Google Analytics stats! It seems Google have fixed the problem or maybe there's just a few days delay. So for those who removed the tracking code, put it back! I think the issue is just the frequency of the analytics update. Google is still collecting the data.

I just tried to use it. After logging into my google account I was told they are no longer taking new accounts because of heavy demand.
