Google analytics system removed

Advanced Web Statistics Logo

I have decided to remove the Google Analytics's system due to the fact that I just found out about a server side system that is pre-installed on our sherver. By using a server side system you get much more accurate tracking since it is not based on getting data from a javascript to another server, this results in a very inaccurate statistics system due to the fact that some people do not support javascript on their computers and or the data gets lost in transport.

Being that the statistics system is server side I will also be able to keep track of disabledplanet.net and its performance. Sorry Google, but your statistics system is not going to work for me.

Google Analytics is more designed for when you have lots of advertisement on your website apparently with all of the ad tracking features it has, which are completely unnecessary clutter for my usage. Awstats which stands for Advanced Web Statistics has zero clutter of unused features, like Google Analytics it also can keep track of how people got to my website and what search query lead them to my site from a search engine, apparently this is all stored within the referrer tags and is not a proprietary Google Analytics's feature.

Even though I didn't know Awstats existed on the server it began tracking my website the minute it got uploaded on January 24th 2008 hence, the monthly statistics report will be done on the 24th of every month. The alinssite.info statistic's report will be posted to the blog!

A disabledplanet.net statistic's report will be posted to the statistics thread on the 22nd of every month.

I have also decided to remove the AdSense powered Google search box. We now have our good old good looking custom built search box.
