Free "hits referrer" stat counter?

[Bot2go]

I have a few blogs/sites not all the same host

is there a hit counter (or similar) that I can upload and see where
my hits are coming from in terms of the "referrer"?

so I can determine which ad or article or source they
are coming from?

finances don't allow me to spend a cent at this time

even if I have to upload to each separately and log into
different accts to be able to see where my hits come
from I don't mind, especially since I'm hoping to find a free solution

any direction would be appreciated!!

bot~!

Google analytics?

Piwik is another

Yeah, just use Google Analytics; it's free and simple to set up across multiple sites.

Fuck G.

I'd use at least two if I were you - I endorse statcounter.com - free and gives you tons of amazing data, and you can sort all your projects nicely under one acct.

I would say GA has all the info you'd need, and more
