Hey everyone, been a little while
Since Google Analytics only allows 5 accounts/sites to track, I wanted to ask if somebody has an alternative. |
I have no access to the logs files. And webtrends is not free :-). So no Awstats, webalizer, webtrends... |
Try Performancing Metrics. It has (almost) real time stats.

I was wondering whether this would work:
Since you can assign additional Administrators to any profile in your site, I was wondering whether you could simply create another Google Account, add it as an Administrator, remove the original account's access and then create more profiles...? I doubt it would work because I'm sure even if you remove the original account's access, the profile would still be linked to it.
It's a bit of a faff and I've therefore not tried it, but it might be worth a shot... |
but Tony this (Urchin/Analytics) works meta tags correct ?? So that tag is asscocated with a verification process to the Account. Now if you swap accounts how does one change the assoication of that site with an account ??
I don't think that Admin changes will work, but if it does--then thats a good hack ..!!
If anyone experiments, pls feed back some insight. Thank in advance :)_ |
/pd: Yeah, that's the reason I doubt it would work. The ID used in the JS tracking code is the original account's ID (from what I can tell), so whilst you can remove Administrators' access from the profile, I don't think it would separate the profile from the original account... |
Also, the additional Google Account you're adding has to already have Google Analytics setup otherwise you'll need an invitation code. I know because I just tried it and I fell at the first hurdle... :-) |
Tony – did you try the hard key method :)-
ServiceLogin?service= vs NewAccount?service=
the prepending protion of the url you know :)- ... |
I've been able to add 10 sites to track before it stopped letting me add new ones... |
