Hi warriors,

Looking on my cpanel and using awstats it states I have had 100 visitors since my website started with 70% of those being unique visitors.

However on analytics for the last 2/3 days it still shows that I only have 3 visitors. And the last 2 days google webmaster isn't acknowledging my website stats either.

Any advice? It was obviously (in the case of analytics) recording stats at one point.
#analytics or webmaster #google

    Maybe your Google Analytics code isn't properly installed. Can you provide a link to your website?

        You dont have the code properly installed.

        Here is your correct code
        Code:
        <script type="text/javascript">

  var _gaq = _gaq || [];
  _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-21869305-1']);
  _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);

  (function() {
    var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
    ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
    var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
  })();

</script>
        Copy and paste that code before the closing </head> tag in your header area.

        Or since you are using WordPress, use this plugin instead Google Analytics for WordPress - Yoast - Tweaking Websites

    They count traffic differently. My awstats used to count every image load and random connection to the site as a unique hit (which is bad because one person surfing a website can make tons of hits each) (50 images on one site, one user downloads them, 50 counts for 1 user)
