Hi,
Anyone know a free third party stats tracking service that doesn't require me to put a huge and ugly banner on my site?

I know bout HitBox, but they want me to show a banner on my site which I find both too big and too animated. I'd prefer something with a small and non-animated button....

Any suggestions?

I've been using YTrack (http://www.ytrack.com) .. Love it! :) No ads. :)

I use YTrack too.

I use SiteMeter (http://www.sitemeter.com)

Just place a small box at the bottom of your site. Or you can place a counter. They don't put any ads.

YTrack look good. It's my first time heard of them. I do heard of sitemeter. Pretty nice stat too.

Yes, YTrack is quite good. Especially with their promise...

I've been happy with their service.

Why don't you install your own tracking script, we use pphlogger http://www.phpee.com It has everything, and a very good traffic monitoring tool

Well long time ago when we needed some statistics, but didnt wanted to show huge counters/banners, we just used the 1x1 pixel strategy, but heh it is illegal, you know ( bad, bad) and today we use webalizer :)

I use stats4all and extremetracker.

Not using this tracker anymore , since I just use my own server stats, but have used them for many years, they're great ;)

While I haven't used them for some time, I remember being very pleased with their service

I use to use http://www.extreme-dm.com/tracking/ a fair bit, still do on some of my sites. I've always liked it.
