From Turkey to Brazil, Saudi Arabia to Fiji (and all points in between), there's something inherently fascinating about watching something that you've created attract so much attention from around the globe.<br> The level of detail provided by StatCounter's logs is truly remarkable. I find that I'm constantly refining and changing my pages to suit my visitors, their screen resolution, browsers and operating systems. I still can't believe that they provide all of this for free with no requirement to provide a visible link to their site.<br> So thank you StatCounter.

I first went looking for an alternative hit counter because my hosting service was reporting some rather bizarre statistics that flew in the face of what I'd researched (apparently <b>everyone</b> out there in Cyber-world uses Netscape 4.0).<br> So onto Google I went, and stumbled across StatCounter. It was free, it said (<i>but only if you want the absolute minimum of stats, I thought</i>). It could be invisible, it said (<i>but only if you pay a premium, I thought</i>). It didn't asphixiate your site with pop-up windows, it said (<i>yeah right, I thought, where's the catch?) </i>Well it turned out I was <b>wrong</b> and that all the testimonials were quite right.<br> At a time when the Internet is getting cynical and over-commercialised and is being villified by the media, it's so refreshing to see a site that just wants to deliver a free <b>and</b> high-quality product. Thank you, StatCounter, I stand corrected!</p></blockquote><cite>Carmen, North Wales <span>|</span> <time>11th Feb 2004</time></cite><blockquote > <p>I just wanted to say that I am absolutely blown away that StatCounter is free!! (now don't decide you oughta charge cause of these kinds of comments! ). I am so very impressed and want you to know I appreciate it sooo much! You offer so many features. The invisible counter is just what I've been looking for and the option to disable logging my own visits is great! I'm telling everyone I know to check you guys out. I had a problem and visited your \"support\" page and immediately found what to do about it, and it worked perfectly.

I've viewed the demo pages and have no doubt that this is exactly the tool I need to track how my affiliates are going. I can not thank you enough for offering a much needed service at the right price to small website owners with NO budget. Seems I was wrong. Not everyone is out to make a quick buck off those trying to get somewhere.<br> Thank you.</p></blockquote><cite>Ann, Queensland, Australia <span>|</span> <time>12th Feb 2004</time></cite><blockquote > <p>Dear Aodhán,<br> I have been really bragging about your product! In addition, the quarterly meeting for our Board of Trustees and the Foundation was last week and the two groups were given a review of the updates to our website including the web counter and statistics I had printed from the StatCounter site. They were "blown off their socks" (their words, not mine) impressed with the product and what it was able to track. One person has already added it to their site and several others copied the information I had printed so they could look at your site later.<br> They were also very impressed with the cost! We were given bids from a local webhosting service for the creation and maintenance of the site that included a hit counter (which I now do internally from our agency) and they wanted to charge a ridiculous fee for this service! We are a non-profit child welfare agency and anything we can do to keep our costs down is of great value!<br> Thanks again!</p></blockquote><cite>Sue Tode, Marketing Coordinator, Chaddock <span>|</span> <time>1st Dec 2003</time></cite><blockquote > <p>I must tell you that I'm stunned by the high level of this site. You have truly a done a wonderful job here, and there is no doubt that this is the best COUNTER site of the web.<br> KEEP ON THE GOOD WORK!<br> GOOD LUCK and THANKS.</p></blockquote><cite>Oren, Paragon Creations <span>|</span> <time>17th Nov 2003</time></cite><blockquote > <p>Dear Aodhán<br> I never believe in free service as free service normally have all sort of problem and disadvantages.<br> But I was wrong when I found statcounter; this is the best stats tracker service that I have ever found in my whole entire internet marketing experience!!
