b2evolution comes with a built-in Server-Side Analytics feature which provides the system administrator as well as the blog owners with unique insights over the usage of their website / blogs.

Server-Side Analytics go beyond analytics recorded by external sources such as Google Analytics. For example, Server Side Analytics see the activity of robots, crawlers/spiders, RSS readers, AJAX queries, service requests and even the activity of users who may have disabled JavaScript or have blocked external analytics solutions. For more information, see Why Do I Need Analytics.

Server-Side Analytics are also the best solution for Intranets or Extranets where you cannot or do not want to load external analytics javascripts.

Server-Side Analytics also play a role in Dynamic Antispam.

b2evolution will start recording hits on your blogs out of the box, without the need for any additional web stats or analytics package.

You can then see stats for all your blogs under the Analytics tab in the back office.

In addition to that, b2evolution 3.x+ also introduces Goal tracking.
