StatCounter Rolling Out Version 4 (SC4)

After a few rounds of beta testing, StatCounter is now ready to roll out version 4 of its web analytics product. There will be no configuration changes required from users of StatCounter as the upgrade will be automatic. Below are some of the enhancements you’ll notice in SC4.

• Exit link tracking – to allow you track the destinations of visitors leaving your site
• Download stats – to allow you track stats for pdf and other files available on your site
• Faster-loading country stats
• Improved reliability and redundancy
• Improved loading speed of StatCounter code
• Greater technical flexibility to allow for continued system improvements

Partition 3 (c4) will be the first partition to be converted. Conversion will take place this weekend when traffic is generally lower and is expected to take a number of hours.

During conversion, stats will continue to be recorded BUT access to stats will NOT be available. Full access will be restored asap and we will keep you updated on progress in the service status forum.
