Does anybody know about some nice Mobile Analytics solution, something like Google Analytics, but for mobile websites?
The solution should show these basic statistics:
- Unique visitors per day/month/year
- Page views per day/month/year and per visitor
- Mobile phone types
- Countries of visits
- Mobile operators per country and wap or Internet APN
- Referrers (not very well supported on older phones)
There are several attempts from
Mobilestats,
Amethon or
Redboss (now Mliven), but non of them are really user friendly and open as it should be. To track mobile users using webalizer or awstats is not useful either, because two few IP addresses used, so there is no good mechanizm how to track unique visitors.
My personal opinion is, that there are no Mobile Analytics project simply because everybody is waiting on Google.
If you start this kind of project and Google will launch it one month later, you are doomed and you can maybe close your project if you don't find any value added services, which Google is not offering. I believe, that good solution could be premium (for example statistics about operators) and the whole project can be profitable next year (if Google will not do it).
So dear Google, when we can start looking forward your mobile version of analytics?
