is there something im missing in regards to this whole public analytics game? Most of us use google analytics. Those are the most accurate stats. If we're interested in making stats public (or a certain subset) like we do with comscore/being quantified, why don't we just make google analytics stats public?
1) Take API for google analytics
2) Make app with api
3) Let site owners choose which stats to make public
4) Stats are public, problem solved.
This is a weekend project that requires funding in the amount of red bull.
*Please please correct me if I'm wrong. This isn't my area of expertise and I may be overlooking some very important things.
- jonknee 17y ago> Those are the most accurate stats comScore would disagree--GA counts cookies not people. When I visit your site at home, on my phone and then at work I look like three people. Add in the fact that I use Chrome, Safari and FireFox regularly and I can look like 7 people. I dump cookies quite frequently too. Not that comScore is perfect at what they do, but GA being a gold standard for accuracy is false.
- jasonlbaptiste 17y agookay cool, thanks for clearing that up.
- sgk284 17y agoDo you know how comscore does this? Just using statistics?
