Google Analytics
Google analytics is usually 4-5 hrs behind real-time updating site stats, but I've noticed my site stats haven't updated since 8pm last night (more than 18 hrs ago).
Anyone else seeing this, or is it just my site?

Is it still behind or has it come back to its regular schedule... Eric

Re: Google Analytics
Eric -
GA seems to be back on its regular schedule (results lagging approx 4 - 6 hrs). I've always been curious as to why GA seems to show around 25% less visitors (sessions) and pageviews than UrchinStats. Doesn't Google own Urchin? Anyone else notice this?

Re: Google Analytics
Interesting.
I have never compared GA to Urchin straight up.. I have always used GA as back up analytics program on sites where I didn't have Urchin through my hosting provider...I will try one out and see... Eric

Re: Google Analytics
Google says that the Analytic stats are updated every 24 hours, so I imagine if they beat that, they figure it's a gift.

Re: Google Analytics
Google analytics VS Urchin - The version of Urchin that is installed on the server is an older version and Google has vastly improved the filtering of the logs - there are also subtle differences like Google Analytics doesn't report known user agents as unique visitors (Bots) and because our sites are highly linked on the web, we get a TON of bots
Honestly, I would scrap urchin altogether as it is no longer supported since the google buyout and go with the much more powerful analytics application.

Re: Google Analytics
Morgan;
Great info. Thanks much. Even though I am not (yet) on one of your sites...I am sure this applies to me as well. I am going to hook up to GA as a main analytics source --then run them parallel for a bit, get the stats synched up and then see about dropping Urchin... Thanks again; Eric

Always suspected the overages reported by Urchin was due to bots - thanks for confirming this Morgan
