Yahoo Analytics is Dead – Matomo is a Free Software that Will Work Forever!

Contents

A major Free Web Analytics service provider ‘Yahoo Analytics’ will close for new websites on October 31st, 2012. A few weeks ago, Urchin closed sales to new customers in March 2012. Therefore, Matomo (Piwik) is the best free web analytics alternative to Yahoo Analytics!

Matomo is made to last, not designed to fail, because it is a Free Software with already 5 years history!
