Looking for a way to get Free Blog Stats?

Google Analytics have a great service to analyze your Adwords campaign, but the bonus here is that you track your websites and traffic with some fantastic free stats and graphs for your blog.

Feedburner can also manage your stats for free plus it will exclude visits from your computer, synch to your time zone and its designed for blogs. It includes serves up stats on Visitor Count, Top Pages, Incoming Traffic Sources and Outgoing Links.

StatCounter provide an awesome, Free Blog Stats Tracker that will give you every stat you require and more. Great visual representations of data including a Google map of visitor locations. The catch is a Banner and some Adsense when you log-in to your account to check your Blog Stats.

MyBlogLog is certainly the widget I keep seeing on all my favorite blogs and if you log into your MyBlogLog account it provides a great free stats service that lets you see Where readers come from, What readers viewed, What readers clicked. I personally like the feature that lets me see what other sites that user is clicking on.

The added bonus to this community style service is that it allows users to carry there avatar pics around while commenting on Wordpress, Moveable Type and Typepad blogs. You can follow in the footsteps of Entrepreneur’s Journey and John Chow dot Com by creating communities, once you have over 10 community members your stats tracker will let you see What My Members Clicked on Other Sites Today.

There is a catch here… When you first sign up and look at your stats pages, you are actually looking at a 3-day trial of MyBlogLog Pro ($3 per Month or $25 per Year)

As great as all these stats trackers for blogs are, you may just want something simple you can access from the front end of your blog.

So now that you have your FREE Blog Stats
Lets have a quick look at how BUMPzee will give you some extra exposure!

  • Once YOU have listed your Blog and installed the JavaScript Blog Stats widget, BUMPzee will publish a 150 character snippet on its site with a … Read MORE link that will take the reader directly to your blog.
  • BUMPzee members also have the opportunity to ‘DUMP’ or ‘BUMP’ your posts.
  • It is important to note that using BUMPzee will give you three added bonuses to help Promote Your Blog
    1. If your blog is new, the Root URL’s PageRank will not compete well in Google’s Search Engine with its 0/10 rating. By having a condensed version re-published on BUMPzee it will come with the weight of a 4/10 rating.
    2. The direct link back to your site will also please the search engines and your site will now compete better against sites with less back-links than your Blog.
    3. You can put a “bump this” button in your blog posts.

The only glitch with BUMPzee is you will have to be signed in for the widget on your blog to recognize you and display the stats to your eyes only.

I hope you this brings you some great traffic, have fun with BUMPzee and enjoy your Free Blog Stats.
