My first thought is Woopra is not catching "cached pages".<br /> I use activemeter as my other stat provider and my stats are higher on this counter than Woopra. We're probably never going to get 100% not with a script based stat/counter.<br /> I would be much happier to run a program right from my server then find away to have google,aol, and all the other page cachers to cough up their stats. </p> http://www.woopra.com/forums/topic/woopra-is-unbelievably-innacurate#post-6066 Mon, 10 Nov 2008 16:20:04 +0000 tarzan007 6066@http://www.woopra.com/forums/ <p>eeeksss... that hurts man </p> http://www.woopra.com/forums/topic/woopra-is-unbelievably-innacurate#post-6057 Mon, 10 Nov 2008 02:31:33 +0000 Black Label 6057@http://www.woopra.com/forums/ <p>Okay,</p> <p>I've confirmed this through another source.</p> <p>I am looking at the affiliate numbers for the page that I put up.</p> <p>Number of impressions for ad: 418</p> <p>Number of page views according to Woopra: 230 </p> http://www.woopra.com/forums/topic/woopra-is-unbelievably-innacurate#post-6054 Sun, 09 Nov 2008 17:04:15 +0000 Black Label 6054@http://www.woopra.com/forums/ <p>Okay,</p> <p>So I've been using Woopra since the beginning.</p> <p>In fact, I actually completely stopped using Google Analytics in favor of Woopra.</p> <p>Well today I read an article that said google analytics damages your search engine rankings... so I decided to remove it.</p> <p>Before I did, I looked at the analytics just for kicks... and discovered that the difference between GA and Woopra are insane.</p> <p>Google registered roughly double the visits/pageviews/unique visitors that Woopra did.</p> <p>The tracking on the search engine results shows COMPLETELY different stuff.</p> <p>Search engine terms woopra was tracking: 226</p> <p>Search engine terms google picked up: 654</p> <p>Now, if I look at the traffic by referrer, the ranks all stay the same, but google of course tracked A TON more visitors for each.</p> <p>So... there is a HUGE portion of people visiting my site that Woopra is not tracking but google does.</p> <p>What gives? </p>
