Analyzing and tracking visitor activity on your website is an important part of website management. The most popular services provided for this purpose are StatCounter and Google analytics. These services are pretty efficient in providing you with information you require but lacks a proper desktop client. Statcounter has no desktop client and has to be opened from a browser, on the other hand Google analytics has a desktop client named Polaris which is handy but lacks in providing good real time stats.
Woopra is a light weight, easy to use and free desktop client that can provide accurate and total information about your website in realtime. It is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS.
For using services provided by Woopra, first you have to create an account with it. Then you have to add Woopra Javascript to your website or for wordpress blog sites you can download the Woopra plugin. After completing these steps you are ready to install the Woopra desktop client.
