Woopra

Nah, it’s not a onomatopoeic.  Maybe it should be.  It is a cool website tracking tool.  You can head on over to Woopra and check it out for yourself.  An alternative (I’m not prepared to say better) to Google Analytics.  But I like the tool.  I think it will be useful.  It has a plugin for WordPress and another for Joomla, but you can just modify the header in your HTML and just get started.

I must have missed something in the instructions, because I installed it (but didn’t activate it).  After you install the WordPress plug-in, navigate over to Settings –> Woopra Settings and put in the website tracking id and API key.  It works better after you do that.

Same with Joomla: go to the site mambot page, edit the Woopra setting with the Website id and then remember to publish the bot. You’ll be analyzing in a flash.

Check it out.
