StatCounter and Clicked sit at opposite ends of the analytics timeline. StatCounter is the classic visitor counter and visit log - simple and familiar, and still useful for a basic headcount. Clicked is a modern, cookieless tool built to show which traffic sources produce revenue. If a running count of visits is all you need, StatCounter does it; if the traffic costs money, Clicked tells you what it makes.

You need to know which traffic converts and what it's worth, cookieless, rather than a running count of visits.
You want a straightforward, long-established visitor counter and visit log, and don't need revenue attribution or a modern cookieless setup.
One line on your site. No cookie banner, no signup to try. Clicked reads the ad pixels and cart you already have and shows revenue, conversions and conversion rate by source - live.
One of the oldest web analytics tools - a visitor counter and log-style stats service from the early web. Simple, familiar traffic and visitor tracking. Dependable, but dated next to modern tools, and built around visits rather than revenue by source.
Best for: Sites that want simple, familiar visitor counting and a log of recent visits, with a free tier and no need for revenue data.
The common reasons are a more modern, privacy-first approach, a cleaner interface, and analytics that tie traffic to revenue rather than just counting visits. StatCounter still works for a basic visitor count; the newer tools do more with less setup.
Clicked measures pageviews and, more importantly, ties them to revenue and conversions by source. It's less a visitor counter and more a way to see which traffic actually pays - cookieless, from one line of code.
Money-first analytics for stores and anyone buying traffic. Know what pays, skip the cookie banner.
