I just started playing with the MyBlogLog tool a few days ago. MyBlogLog is a Yahoo company. It basically offers webmasters a handy widget to track visitors from their network and also tracts statistic from all visitors to your blog.

You can use their tool free for 3 day and then if you like the statistics you can purchase an ongoing package. These stats are pretty useful since it shows page views, traffic sources and click outs. From this it is easy to see what is happening with your traffic. A few days ago I did a post on QuickBooks online, and I included some affiliate links to their service. MyBlogLog clearly showed me how many times someone click on my affiliate link…thanks folks

One thing that did bother me is that it showed MORE clicks on adsense ads than I received credit for. I am concerned that I am not getting credit for all the traffic I send to Adsense, or does this mean MyBlogLog does not accurately track this traffic. Either way I see the value of using MyBlogLog for just this purpose.

MyBlogLog widgets and social networking attribute are nice and I have added new readers as a result. You may want to look into using MyBlogLog or at least trailing it for a few days, just to see how it works, and the value of the stats package.
