What sort of analytics are you guys getting for your fora/forum?
One of the interesting factors that I've found is that about 70% of my visitors each day are returning visitors.
Tons of other interesting stuff as well but some of it will be regional...
I've received a few emails from people asking for invites to Google Analytics - please not that this is NOT like gmail and there are no invites and until they provide more capacity there is no way you can join up - really sorry about that...<
I've had it on mine since the first week. It is very impressive.
I put mine in the same place, except I used an include file since I have 6-700 other pages on the site besides the forum. Makes it easy to change if needed.
One thing I like is the goal tracking. I set up the funnel leading to the final registration page. It's very interesting to follow the signups and see where they entered the site and follow thier progress through the site to the registration. Or the abandonment point if they don't follow through to the end. Good stuff.
They closed it very early. I believe the 7th or 8th day it was available.<
