I am interested in installing urchin/googleanalytics on one of my servers. They are only allowing it by invitiation only. We have signed onto their waiting list. Anyone know when they will be sending out invitations or how to get an invitation?

Thanks,

Eric

I got my invite just yesterday, it's pretty good but I have to explore it better as it has a lot of reports/features

I don't think so, I don't see any invites in my control panel :(

If I can ask how long were you on the waiting list?

Just want to know how much waiting time to expect.

Thanks,

Eric

I just got mine a few days ago, at least a month on the list before I got it. Closer to twoish if memory serves me right.

I got mine last friday, I just got it set for my website, there's a code you need to integrate on every page you want analyzed. There's a lot of reading to do too.

I signed up to adwords in novemeber 2005, and applied for analytics probably before christmas.

No "invite a buddy" panel yet.

I forgot when I signed up, it was sometime in the last 4 months or so. I've been using it for the last two months so it took a while to get the invite but it works well.

I use it on two websites but it doesn't have enough data that I want like referrer details etc. so I also use awstats on my webserver. Between them both I get what I want.
Best thing is both are free. :)

When i got my account, you could just sign up.

The google analytics isnt very good IMO.

Any reason for this? I think it is a wonderful piece of stats software.

It's not wonderfull. I've had over 4000 hits in 2 days, and google says i have 200. It's showing false information.

It took google 2 days and 2 emails to actually get the tracker working. I put the tracker on every page, but it wouldn't detect it!

Yeah, that's my problem. I'm seeing 5,000+ uniques per day in webalizer and awstats statistics, but I come back to Google and see around 300-500.

I've got a site uptime tracker that views my site at least 20,000 times per month, it's not showing that, either. I'm not sure what Google's problem is, but something is definitely not correct with them statistics.

Oh, by the way, I was invited around 2 months ago, I don't believe there are any invites I can send.
