    Adbrite telling me my analytic software isn't reporting correctly.

    They have me at...
    Reach:
    • 5 unique users per day
    • 7 pageviews per day
    And my site does far better than that. They sent me this Email. Any suggestions?

    Thank you for contacting AdBrite. AdBrite tracks clicks and impressions according to industry standards. Differences in the results from your web analytics software and your AdBrite statistics are generally caused by the way the analytics software is installed and configured. The solutions may vary depending on which software you use. Here are some common causes that will help you troubleshoot the problem with your software's service department.

    1. In order to offer power and flexibility, many analytics tools allow you to choose different definitions for the metrics you want to count. If you find your software is undercounting your clicks or impressions, check your software configuration to make sure you aren't excluding impressions or clicks.

    2. We've found some instances where software was installed in a manner where multiple unique clicks were incorrectly assigned a single unique click ID. This in turn reduces the number of total clicks reported by your analytic software.

    If you continue to have problems, we recommend contacting your analytic software's customer service. They should be able to help you trouble shoot the configuration.

    Best Regards,

    John M.

    i'd trust analytics over adbrite any day of the week.


    That said, if you're gettin 7 pages a day, i wouldn't be worrying about getting ads up... i'd be worried about getting content up.

    That's not accurate. I get thousands a day. That's the problem Adbrite isn't recognizing that.
