GA is far superior to the WP ‘stats’ –it’s a silly comparison. But
since it’s not allowed, I compensated years ago with independent
stat counter; this year added link to use Google’s Webmaster Tools.Between the two: I get all I need to know. Who cares, really
which os -connection (???) lol, readers use, but what IS way valuable: Keywords
Both tools give in-depth answers to:
-WHAT is being read
-How LONG it was read
-How reader found my material. –All I need.Example: one day “WP stats” said only 9
I could look it up –saw: not only did far more readers that day,
but the “9” –ALL from Plano, Texas. –Huh? I have Texas fans???
Nope: all nine –WP BOT, lol, way DIDN’T do any “reading.”BTW: I’ve had Google Analytics on two of my non-WP sites since
the begining of GA; it’s gotten better –and worse, in various ways.
Webmaster Tools are simpler, more useful –and allowed on WP.WP won’t add any thing from a vote, so just add the WT link and find
a free independent non-java counter to get good in-depth info –without
asking anyone for ‘permission’/help.Also: last week-end Google added VERY cool tool –stats on
EACH blog/post –luv it. It has a few flaws, yet, but it’s sooo good -
I appreciated your posts about other analytics tools with static code. I even tested for one month Click and SiteMeter. Excuse me for my honesty, but GA is by far the best tool, even better for sites which uses AdWords and AdSense. Have you ever tried GA?
I don’t know if WordPress has something against Google tools or Google folks. Can anyone explains what can make WordPress ignore so many requests? Any architectural restritions? I know that GA uses JS, but this is not a good excuse. WordPress would put a field where I just type my GA code, and, voilá, problem solved.
I would pay for this kind of funcionality.

It would be nice to have this helpful tool. It would make blogging better. Hopefully the community would improve too as a result of adding this wonderful tool.

I do not want Google analytics since I boycott Google. They seriously worry me with their tendency to collect data…

I would like google analytics. It is useful, widespread, and I do not understand why it hasn’t been included months ago.

I have used Google Analytics with and the wordpress.org software for years on my own host, it would be a great feature to have on wordpress.com, or at least the opportunity to have the option regardless of our personal opinions with the software.
