Does Yahoo! hate IndexTools?
Yahoo! can’t have a lot of faith in their Web Analytics suite (formerly IndexTools). I say this because they are using free 3rd party analytics software on several of their sites instead.
We recently exposed the use of Google Analytics on the Yahoo! Rivals site which was bad enough.
You can imagine my shock when I discovered Google Analytics code on the Yahoo! Search Blog:
<script type=”text/javascript”>
var gaJsHost = ((“https:” == document.location.protocol) ? “https://ssl.” : “http://www.”);
document.write(unescape(“%3Cscript src=’” + gaJsHost + “google-analytics.com/ga.js’ type=’text/javascript’%3E%3C/script%3E”));
</script>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
try {
var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker(“UA-6563788-1″);
pageTracker._trackPageview();
} catch(err) {}</script>
Great PR.
