Traffic Analysis Software Packages

[handicappedpets]

I'm looking to invest in a traffic analyser program. I've looked at several and would like to discuss choosing the best.

I want the full feature set with log analysis, PPC campaign, spider, and clickfraud

Clicktracks - EXCELLENT!! but $3,500 and license limitations.

Surfstats - Seems to do everything that Clicktracks does for $995 with no license problems, but documentation is so sparse I can't figure out how to use it.

123Log Analyzer - $149.00 - Claims to do it all, but I can't get it to work.

Your experiences, thoughts will be appreciated.

Handicappedpets,

with analytics I recommend you start with a basic package and work your way up the sophistication chain. Only then will you know what features you'll really need and prioritise.

I'd alway recommend Statcounter. It's great for real time analysis of search performance. You can try it for free and then buy packages for as little as $15 per month.

I don't know if you want to rent or host your own solutions?
