I know I am all behind. I always thought making the scripts to store and view access logs for websites is usually easy. I tend to think web companies which use free services for this kind of task is that just being lazy! (Actually, I am the laziest. I know I know.) Anyway, I finally gave a try to Google Analytics
Setting up this tool is very easy if you are able to edit your own HTML. It's even super easy if you are using WordPress or something like that to generate pages dynamically for your websites. You probably only adding 2 lines of code to a template file.
"Geo Map Overlay" is really nice feature for me. I get to know this blog is actually read somewhere outside of Japan, which means a lot to me. Yes, I am getting some motivation here. Still, I don't think most of my clients don't need this much complex informations.
It is always good to try whatever is available to try (for free) as a web developer. I'll try to be that way as much as I can.
