I also have a Blogger/Blogspot blog and Sitemeter crashed with almost the exact same symptoms as you describe on almost the exact same date. I really miss it, although I do use Google Analytics and Blogger Stats too. Sitemeter counts in Real Time. I'd really like to get it to work again if anyone has an idea how to do that. It's saying it's already January...but not counting anything. I had it installed for years and years and years so comparing the Sitemeter numbers was a valid comparison...until 2014. Coincidentally, Blogger and Google are showing a drop in traffic to my blog. Tough way to end the year!

I've had no problems with it, neither on my (now defunct) personal blogs nor for my business site. At first I used both, but I stopped using Sitemeter altogether after a while because I prefer Statcounter's features.Gigi K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04201138697826532974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-17107336233570297722014-12-04T21:41:27.219-06:002014-12-04T21:41:27.219-06:00@B: Actually, Sitemeter undercounts too - see the...@B: Actually, Sitemeter undercounts too - see the two earlier posts to which I linked.<br /><br />Blogger Stats is an excellent counter for page views, which is its basic metric. If you can figure out the average number of page views per visit (which all blog counters measure differently, IMHO) that can give you a good baseline from which to work. Google Analytics is outstanding for site metrics from a business and 'monetizing' point of view. I also use Google Feedburner to track visitors using my RSS feed.<br /><br />Between those three, I'm fairly confident that I know what's going on.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10595089829300831372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-24726303300125044302014-12-04T21:25:34.362-06:002014-12-04T21:25:34.362-06:00Yeah, mine was broken there for a while.

Strange.<br /><br />Mine is still working today though. <br /><br />If you find a good substitute, please email me. <br /><br />I find that Google undercounts from SiteMeter by over 40%.
