What is up with Masterstats?

[shwsrvcs]

Does anybody know why that is down? I still track some things with that stat program but the site has been down for about 2 weeks it seems.

Is it done for?

Wondering the same thing; came here and did a search hoping to find some clues.

It was the best counter.I hope it still will be.There is no better way to monitor performance of network of sites.

Loved it to!

Email addresses were not working (got bounced), no .eu domains monitoring available? But it was easy to see which posts of my blog got the most hits. Any other tips?

I've used Masterstats on some sites before but they are down frequently. I think Statcounter provides stats that are just as good and they let you use an invisible counter unlike Masterstats.

Lucky-teens, I'm not sure how many counters you've used but I can't say I agree with you that there is no better way. Your own server log stats are much more accurate and most hosting companies provide Webalizer or something similar so you can check them. Personally, I think Statcounter is as good or better than Masterstats for a free counter and then of course, there's Google Analytics which is hard to beat if you want a huge amount of data.

The difference is that masterstats sends you some traffic / acts as a toplist, too, for every page that you have the counter on.

I'm really sad that no one knows what's happened or if this is a permanent problem. I guess without anything being communicated it's time to move on. My server log stats are not very good, for some reason, and never pick up all of the referrers that masterstats recorded for me.

I used them for a while but I had the same problem -- they just crapped out too frequently.
