Google Analytics & Smug Stats

Mueller John

Why is Google Analytics showing zero hits and Smugmug statistics showing lots of hits?

Andy

I do not know But we count every hit on your site.

Google Analytics measures page views. Among other things, Smugmug measures image hits. You can generate Smugmug images hits by linking an image into a forum or blog and never have any Google Analytics hits because nobody every hit your actual Smugmug site.

That said, if you continue to have no hits on Google Analytics, then you might verify that it's properly installed.

I just checked your tracking code and it does not look like it is in the correct format. Normally it is something like this UA-XXXXX-X but you do not have the second dash with the number on the end.
