Google analytics needs some learning, but once you do learn it you’ll find it very useful. It is a really good tool, especially being a free tool.

I have just started using analytics myself on a few sites and I must say I’m not to impressed. I’ve had site monitors that do all these functions before some even better.

For instance on an ecommerce site, I could not track a specific visitor process through my site that had placed an order. I wanted to see where the hit orignated from that placed the order, keyword, and what pages they viewed.

Now I could see the IP of the visitor in my order log so I figured I would write that down, go back to analytics, and try and track via IP. I came to find out Analytics won’t let you track by IP because of “privacy issues” so there went that idea Ha.

I have been using google analytics for a short time now and it has been very confusing I must say, it shows my visits going up to 5 or 10 then going to 0 for a week. It does not match the analytics I have from the hosting company with actual source links (over 400 google references in the last week). So I am trying to figure out if the wordpress plugin might have an issue, or if analytics is looking for something different. Very strange.

Pretty straight forward – you can pay by credit card or bank transfer to them, as soon as they have the money they tell the seller to pass over the goods, once you have teh goods you inform Escrow and they release the funds to the seller. Nice and methodical and safe so the seller does not get the money until you have the domain/website.

How easy is escrow.com to use?

is it as easy as paypal?

Also do they really sort payment issues like paypal does?

what about there fees? is it more or less than paypal?

For example when I want to acces Escrow I get a message : Your access to Escrow.com has been denied.

I think is something related to my IP, or something like this, so I can’t use this service. Can you recommend me other services like Escrow ?

Thanks
