Advantages Traffic-- One of the most important
benefits to analyzing your Web statistics is that you are able to learn information about the visitors to your website.
Page Viewer-- Tracking your website's page views shows how many people visit your site daily, but more importantly, you can see which pages are the most popular among your visitors.
Advertising-- Many websites rely on advertising to earn revenue. Thanks to analyzing Web statistics, a website has the potential of increasing its revenue by providing this statistical data to potential advertisers.
Disadvantages Time Consuming-- Although analyzing
Web statistics can be quick if you're familiar with how to interpret the data, the process is time consuming for someone new to analytics. If you run a website by yourself, you might not have enough time to spend on analyzing the stats, and the time you spend doing so can eat into the time you would otherwise use for building or contributing to your website.
