The New Google Analytics Rocks

17 May, 2007 (20:15) | General Information, HTML Tips | By: Erik

I’m definitely not the first to say that google analytics is new and improved. The word has been spreading about them taking urchin site tracker to the next level.

My Google Analytics account has just been switched over to the new look and feel and I have to say that it is Googlefied to the max. It gives you more information right at login that it ever did so you don’t have to go digging through all the crazy sidebar items. Speaking of which, the sidebar options have been majorly trimmed which is great!

The nice thing about the streamlined version is that it’s not really streamlined at all. I still see all the information it used to have just now it’s much easier to find and know it’s there (I even found stuff that I didn’t know analytics tracked.)

What do you all think of the new look?

Not bad, it’s an improvement sure, but I think it’s harder now to compare time periods. A bit more cumbersome IMO.

Hey barry- Guess I didn’t notice that too much. I didn’t really use it a lot before and I still use my stat counter account due to ease of use while looking at multiple sites.

The new look and feel is pretty nice thought. Very user friendly and easy to nagivate through.

Aloha,
Erik

I think there is no big difference. But it became harder to compare time periods. However, there is some improvements…Thanks for the news
