Google have been hard at work recently making Google Analytics into a great product; a product that is used on over 55% of all websites, including ours, and one that has an analytics tool market share of over 82%.

In March of last year, Google Analytics introduced a radical new look, though the old version is still available. With the new Analytics came real-time reports and advanced data funnels and flow visualisations.

Google Analytics Premium was introduced in September 2011, but progress on its uptake has not been shared.
