google analytics question - GoFuckYourself.com

webmasterchecks · 10-01-2008, 05:28 PM

thanks for looking. few questions, how do i get the referring url through analytics, as well as the IP address? and is there any cool stuff that can be modified?

let me say it makes no sense to me why google would not have an easy way to access the exact referring url and IP address of visitors

reffering url is in Traffic Sources Overview in the bottom left box, im not sure about IPs though. Ive been using it for a while and have never seen it

why not just use your own stat program?

I don't like giving google more information, they know too much already

I like to use both and compare. as you know. they already know too much, so why not use it. It has a lot of good features. Not to sure how accurate it is. Sometimes it matches statcounter, sometimes it doesnt.
