I need a new site counter- the bravenet one is simply too unreliable (it is down again right now). Plus, I think one of the problems with my advertising is that it always looks like no one ever visits, because my counter always reads near 100k, because the damn thing breaks and has to be reset every month. I am probably closer to 2-3 million hits over the lifetime of this website, but that is not reflected.
At any rate- what do you guys suggest? I wass not that fond of sitemeter.
*** Update ***
According to the host, 2.58 million hits.

Mr. Cole, while you are discussing site operations, would you consider adding an RSS feed to your site? (Unless I’m just missing one that is already there.)
thanks.

Is this what you need?

Your rss feed only has the first line.
Send me an e-mail if you’d like for me to send you the code so you can have a feed for the entire post and another one for the comments.

I’ve never had any problems with Site Meter, so I’m WTF as to what your objection is. It didn’t give the same count as other measures I’ve used, but none has ever agreed with another. Whatever Site Meter’s flaws, it’s never, ever, ever, gone down, so what’s your problem with it? (If I were less lazy, and also unworried about yet further slowing down loading of my page, I’d add a couple or more other meters; but I’ve yet to feel a particular need, given the general functionality of Site Meter.)
