Counter Visitors Online Analytics

The hit counter Google Analytics statistics began to show in real time how many counters are already online visitors, for example, the whos.amung.us ( Show Number of visitors Online Blog ). This has already been published on the official Google Analytics on 29/09/2011: What's happening on your site right now? ( What's happening on your site right now? ). It took us to talk about it because the release of this visitor counter Realtime Analytics was released gradually and most users could not see it on your dashboard.

Google Analytics shows number of visitors online

To see visitors who are online at the blog using Analytics enter the homepage and click in real time on the left menu and you can follow the live blog statistics.

This menu has some options online information about visitors of your blog such as place of origin of visitors (name of country), traffic sources, content (which pages are being visited at that time).

Although online counters are interesting data to see mostly because we know what happens at that moment that you should not serve to make decisions about your blog, after all we need to understand what people do on our blog in general and not just this time.

We did a test putting the meter in real time who's amung blog to compare the statistics and made a difference that varies a bit but always hit counter analytics showed less than who's amung as you can see in the images below that was a screen print which showed a counter 60 and the other 94 guests online.
difference between the hit counters

The difference between the hit counters can be explained by several reasons like counter reading the blog in html, counting system for each site (analytics and whos'amung), length of stay of each visitor to the blog and other things, but this are things that are not under our control so there's no way to correct this difference. We hope you enjoy this option more statistics about your blog.
