The stats/analytics feature is probably our favorite of the new features we just added.
It's different from using a script in that it's not a piece of code or an include, it's actually part of the site. This lets us track things down to each individual access of a photo or movie and display accurate stats based on what a site's members are doing.
It's all automatic, a site owner does not need to signup anywhere, add any code to their pages, login to an external site to see stats or even lift a finger, the stats are there automatically from the moment we install the system.
As of the release of this feature the stats page in the Elevated X admin panel shows 30 different views, each with graphical charts and text listings. We'll be adding additional views to help site owners pinpoint problems and easily identify trends.
Let's face it. As any of us who has ever run a pay site knows, most members don't take the time to send an email and tell you what they like or what they want or more importantly, what would make them willing to stick around and rebill a few more times. Sure, a few of them will send those emails but most site owners and Webmasters rely on stats to figure out what people want.
With detailed data there's far less guesswork.
