Google Analytics or Stat counter?Which is best?
Hey guys i have been using both Google analytics as well as stat counter in checking the traffic figures for my blog.
I observed that stat counter gives innate details about where your blog has been viewed from, for how long and even how many times.
But i have heard a lot of members say that google analytics is the best.
But both dont seem to be giving the same number of stats. Anyone has any idea why ?

what does the google analytic really do? I heard that it would help a website/blog to increase their page ranks as well as also tracking the visitors! I like to know in details about it.

well in my opinion Google Analytics is much better than stats counter. I have used it in many sites and quite satisfied with the results provided by them.

Google Analytic is more Flexible and more good in my eyes, plus it's provided by the most great company i worked with ever stats websites are good also, but i prefer the ones which bring traffic to me , not just give me a stats

Yes Google does provide IP address of the visitors in their stats..
The other feature I love in Google is the goal setting....

Yeah I did.. used it to calculate how many people are getting to my downloads page through the 'enter your email and name' script.
This is a nice tool to know which all are the places where a visitor abandon the site.. usually happens when a visitor does not want to enter the required information or the page is too difficult to use.

though it is copied from google help all info is included in a single page
