Hit counters powered by Google Analytics

Tag: Google Analytics WidgetsKarthik @ 11:54 am

This is the third widget in the Widgets for Google Analytics series.

There are hell a lot of sites that offer hit counters for free. But I bet you this is the first one that is powered by Google Analytics (GA). Why would you let other sites to track your traffic when GA already does that extensively. So lets make a site counter out of GA…

Here it is,

This widget has a similar UI as the subscriber counter widget offered by FeedBurner. It pulls the number of visits/visitors/pageviews from your Google Analytics profile. This widget takes two parameters as input: statistics whose count has to be shown and a date from which the count has to be calculated. All you need is a GA account and a free registration in the Widgets for Google Analytics section. Create a widget, paste the embed code in your side bar and let your visitors know hit count of your site.

    Ravi,
    I think, the count Google Reader shows is the number of subscribers in Google Reader and not the whole count. To get more statistics about your subscribers, you got to burn your feed with feedburner. There is no other way.

    But it’s a good idea to create a widget out of the GR’s subscriber count. I will try that out.
