Blog Tracker +/- ?

long time ago, this question always struggling me.

there are few points which against or opposite the Blog tracker:

+ you can know how many people visited. if the reason of blogging is let as many as people visit, this help you valuate your blog.

+ it may be encourage your visitor to visit, especially your friends. coz they know you may care the number of visit. well if your blog is boring, it would help.

- it may make you addicted to check the number of visit.

- if you have confident of your blog, you feel your blog will attract people to visit, then you don't need the tracker. Coz, by using tracker to give you a proof for your self, you are somehow questioning your blog.

+ tracker can made you improve your blog. if number of visit is low, this is a driving force to improve the content of your blog.

- tracker may stop improving of your blog. if you satisfy the number of visit, you feel no need to improve your blog.

- tracker only let you know how many visitors browsing your blog, but show no detail of what kind of people visit it. if your blog is somewhat diary, then it is fine, coz people who visit it, is just for fun. if your blog is specified in some topic, then, you may want some target group to visit instead of people for fun. well, "comment" can fill this part. (oh, i have no comment so far)

all in all, the reasons for adding tracker, mostly base on the purpose of blogging.

4 vs 3, i decided not add a tracker.
