SiteMeter Receives a Visual Makeover

If you’re a user of the analytics service SiteMeter, you will now see a better interface when you check your site’s statistics. The site redesign provides a host of new features for users that could cause users of Google Analytics to do a double-take. Here’s a closer look at what users can expect from the upgrades SiteMeter has made.

UPDATE: Turns out the new design wasn’t so great after all. SiteMeter has implemented an immediate rollback to the old design!

Visual Goods

SiteMeter has made a switch from a codename based management system to an email based system. This means that users can now consolidate their SiteMeter accounts under one email address. In doing so, users will be required to reactivate their accounts under their email address. You can even group your premium account reports by topics to compare and contrast the data of all your sites .

Visually, the service has redesigned the way users can now view their data. Statistics can now be visually seen using charts, graphs, or a table view. Choose date ranges of data to view, export your data, view demographics and do a ton more via a sweet visual interface. SiteMeter is also reporting to have more accurate data for visitor counts and page views by differentiating between visitors and unique visitors. All of your statistics are available visually and textually for any section of the service.

Taking Notes

With some of the new features, we have to wonder if SiteMeter decided to take a couple of visual cues from Google’s popular Analytics service. Whether they have or haven’t, SiteMeter has certainly done a great job on an long over-due upgrade. However, we’re not sure if the new features are enough to keep users from using Google Analytics for free. If you’re a user of SiteMeter, let us know what you think of the site’s redesign and changes in the comments section.
