Google Analytics for Mobile

Google Analytics is one of the most used (and most powerful) free web statistics tool for mobile websites, but it is based on JavaScript code that, in the mobile world, only works on high-end devices.


Google Analytics for Mobile Websites (http://code.google.com/mobile/analytics/docs/web/) works on all web-enabled browsers, with or without JavaScript support. The technology supports script code for PHP, ASP.NET, Perl, and JSP.
Google Analytics is also available for Android and iPhone native appli- cations, supporting tracking of pages and events.
To use the mobile service, you should apply for a normal Google Analytics account at http://www.google.com/analytics. Create a new Website Profile and, in the Advanced section, select “A site built for a mobile phone,” select your server language, and follow the instructions.
