Different statistics in Google analytics compared to third party applications

witch187 · 02-23-2007, 01:33 AM

Hi,

I am currently using Google Analytics and another third party application and experiencing large differences in the statistic performance. Many have suggested that users are disabling the JavaScript in their browsers which would explain why the numbers are low in Analytics as the supplied code is also JavaScript.

BUT the third party application that I also run is JavaScript as well, yet I have not experienced any large drops in user visits as compared to Analytics.

Any suggestions?

are you going just going to monitor the traffic...? coz you can use other tools online that can monitor traffic or visitors in your site....

hi yeah I want to document traffic but ideally through Google analytics. This issue seems to be a common thing on the forums. Any suggestions?
