A key factor in running a blog is knowing the number of visitors it is attracting and how they got to it.
StatPress Reloaded is a free plugin that does that work for you.
It can be installed automatically from the ‘Plugins/Add New’ entry in the admin area of your WordPress blog.
Just type ‘StatPress Reloaded’ in the Search Plugins box and then click on the StatPress Reloaded link.
StatPress Reloaded collects information and builds statistics about blog visitors, spiders, search keywords, feeds, browsers, OS etc.
What is noteworthy, among other things, is that StatPress Reloaded starts working immediately after you have installed it. There is nothing else, beyond its installation, that you are required to do.
Just activate it and then have a look at the visits you are receiving by clicking on the automatically created StatPress Reloaded button in the menu area.
