I was very concerned yesterday to receive an e-mail from Statcounter about the quite appalling service response they are receiving from Paypal in relation to a major breakdown in the service for subscription payments made via Paypal.
You can read all about it on the Statcounter blog here Paypal - A Warning from StatCounter - here's an extract
On 15 May Paypal performed a site update - this is
If you haven’t installed a statcounter by now, make sure you do today. A statcounter is one of your biggest secret weapons, and not because it tells you how many hits you get a day.
A good statcounter is the best ally ever because it allows you to see a number of things that you can use to make a ton of cash that you may not have realized. So in this article I’ll teach you some totally nifty
I'm surprised by how many people use Internet Explorer over Firefox. IE was a fat, lumbering dinosaur when I last used it.Also, the return hits from some visitors are bewildering. More so on my childrens' blog. 23 return visits within half an hour? Either the person is an obsessed nutso or their browser is throwing a serious wobbly. It's probably Internet Explorer!
Several days ago I started using tracking service from StatCounter. I’d chosen to start with free service. And it’s been more than a week they track my blog’s stats. I’m just wondering is it better than ExtremeTracking that I’m using until now. So I would like to gather as much as information for a week long.

Statcounter is great for a website that is not heavy on bandwidth, and some themes for Wordpress make the page very big. On a cable connection this website takes almost 3 seconds to fully load. Adding the addition 2-3 second load time associated with Statcounter would push the limits of even patient web surfers.
I often admit to my readers that my main reason for blogging is the lovely ego stroking that comes with. Alas, my dear sweet StatCounter has become an ego basher instead. I used to be thrilled over the number of "unique visitors", the cute red balloons on the world map, and I got numerous giggles out of seeing how people had found my blog (e.g. Google Search: "How to rule the world with jello").Once again though, math is my undoing in life. Even with my limited skills, I can figure out what it means when I have 97 visitors on a given day, and 7 of them leave comments.As I'm a person given to fits of paranoia...my laborious counting of fingers and toes leads me to the following conclusion...On that day, 90 people decided they didn't like me.Indeed, ignorance is bliss. And so I bid my StatCounter a reluctant adieu, content once again to believe that I am universally adored by all who visit me here.
