Thanks for the insights. We’ve been having problems with reporting accuracies of Google Analytics, specifically the platform’s inability to track any bit.ly or owly links from twitter. Our numbers are off by 50% or more and I think we’re switching to Clicky since they do a better job integrating with Twitter.

Hi, and thanks for the comment!

Yeah, there’s a second part, as well as a follow-up to Clicky, which lists all of the other stuff, too…

Let me know when you get to part 2, I’d definitely be interested in seeing how well it works out for you.

I guess part of my concern is that using a free service is always risky when using the data for a “real” business, since they don’t owe you anything and could go down with your stats at any time.

I’ll probably use it as a “latent” source of stats, but have a paid or self-hosted package as well as reliable source if something went wrong with the likes of Clicky.

Hello again Justin!

There’s some really nice features in Clicky,and for the new ‘blogger, it’s got plenty of power.

However, if you’re new to ‘blogging and you’re into tracking your news feeds, your money would be better spent with FeedBurner.

So in that sense, Clicky need to add much more value to their offering.

By the way: there’s a part two to this review…
