Best premium and free tool for accurate website traffic stats?

15 replies
Hi Warriors

What is the best premium and free tool which i can use to get the most accurate stats for website traffic stats. I want to advertise on some websites and need close to accurate website traffic stats because sometimes website owners provide false information. The main information which i want is the number of monthly visitors, countries traffic is from and bounce rate.Thanks

    Short of getting access to their Google Analytics account that's not really possible.

    Alexa guesses based on people with their toolbar installed.

    Other sites guess based on other options.

    Note: they won't call it a guess but that's what it is.

    The only person who knows the real data is the owner of the website.

    For your own website I recommend Clicky.com. They have free and premium options. It's what I use.

      I believe it isn't very good for tracking ads etc. and I believe that the platform should have all the features the marketer needs. The most powerful tool is Google Analytics for sure, but not so many people have enough knowledge how to handle it correctly.

      For the topic author I would suggest using Google analytics, but before this just complete some online courses. e.g. Google Analytics Essential Training with Brad Batesole is the best choise

    Google Analytics! This is confirm the best tool you are looking for. Nothing else.

      Did you "confirm" this? I'd like a link to your source....

      Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

    It's a pity that all stats can be faked. You can include the Analytics code to your page twice to double your visits and I haven't found Alexa to be at all accurate.

    One of my favourite estimation tools is Semrush https://www.semrush.com/

    It's given pretty accurate guesses at stats for all sites I have control over, from sites with 1 million uniques a month to small personal sites with a few thousand uniques a month.

    Why not try trialling a few sites and only continue with those that provide results?

    My fav is sitemeter.com. Used them for 15 years and they have tons of stats.

    I only use the free version. Can't tell at all.

    My own sites I use Google Anaytics.
    PBN = I would use other trackers (not Google analytics), to prevent Google from tracking my PBN.

    There are different online tools that you can use to get website traffic information but as you said that their data is not accurate so i recommend you to use "SEMrush" because I've used it for generating information like this and it's just amazing. Its provide you accurate information about visitors on website, higher ranked keywords, monthly traffic, traffic from different countries etc.

    I like Google Analytics. You can also get a ton of raw traffic stats by looking at your server logs.

    I am using google analytics only. But not using standard reports, I have set up several custom reports by using templates. You can find tons of them on internet.
