Free Web Statistics and Web Analytics Hosting Services
This page lists free web statistics services: services that provide your website with web statistics (web stats) or web logs that allow you to find out more about your visitor's profile (eg, what country they come from, the browser they use, the operating system used, screen resolution, JavaScript and Java capabilities), who referred them to your website (eg, which URL or domain sent them), what search engine keywords were used to locate your website on which search engine, the visitor pathway through your website (including which were the entry pages and exit pages), how much traffic you get per day, per month, per year, per hour, and so on.
Note that if you are hosted with a commercial web host, you typically already have some sort of web statistics package preinstalled on your account. If you're not satisfied with the stats it provides, you can also run your own log analyzers on your raw web logs (usually provided with a commercial account) to produce your own web statistics. You can find some free log analyzers on the Free Log Analyzers and Web Statistics Software page.
