RE: [webanalytics] No free IndexTools - was: Cookie rejection rate

I just received an email from them today, here was the content.







As you know we were recently acquired by Yahoo! and subsequently went free with
our service. In order to ensure that there was no adverse effect on our data
collection and subsequent ability to provide real-time web analytics we
deactivated the ‘Add New Account’ function for our partners. We here at
IndexTools are now pleased to announce that the ‘Add New Account’ function
has been reactivated on your partner account, but with some limitations.



Why the need for limitations?



Please bear in mind that our current server capacity was based on our original
projections according to where IndexTools expected to be in 2008 in regards to
volume and revenue. The acquisition by Yahoo! rendered this forecast obsolete.
Our number one responsibility is to ensure that our existing partners and
clients are not negatively impacted by an oversubscription of accounts on the
IndexTools system. These limitations will be reviewed in the coming months.



So, what are these limitations?



· You will be limited to three projects per client account—should you
require more than three please contact your account manager

· We are limiting the monthly page volume to 20 million page
views/month for the immediate future (this limit is per client account); data
collection will occur up to that 20 million page view mark, but not beyond

· You will be able to add 5 accounts within a 30-day period ( based on
former invoicing period)

· Note: all new accounts will be created as Enterprise accounts from
this day forward—furthermore, as there are no longer fees there is no longer
any need for trial accounts

Hi -

I just came across this blog post today which I found interesting:
http://www.ilovetracking.com/quo-vadis-yahooindextools/

So no free Yahoo! IndexTools in near future? What do you think?

Regards,
