Why give Google so much information about your site?
Call me paranoid but why give any 3’rd parties access to this data?
Is there a php script (sold or gpl) I can install on my server to provide similar stats as GA or Piwik?
For instance, the GPWA is using MozScape (by seomoz) to track the stats etc of all their member sites.
Seomoz collects data like GA but makes this available to competitors at a price.
While I don’t know for sure but seeing the GPWA doesn’t have an issue selling its members out for a buck, my guess is the only reason they’re using MozScape (powered by seomoz), they’ve done a deal and are likely getting a financial kick backs for this data. Milking their members for what they can get.
Sadly this is a such a typical GPWA thing to do; selling members out for a buck!
