The next thing you should do after registering your blog, is add a Web Tracker to it. A web tracker is like a visitor counter, but it can give you much more information than a normal counter.
A good web tracker will be able to give you information about the referrals to your blog, or how visitors have found your blog.
You will be able to see the search term they have entered in a search engine like Google or Yahoo to get to your blog, or the site that has lead them to yours. In that case, that site probably has a link to yours.
It’s not just a way to keep track of the amount of people that visit your blog, but also a great way to find out what your visitors are interested in or what they love to read.

A nice free counter that can give you all this information can be found at Extreme Tracking (You can click HERE to go to extreme tracking). You sign up, copy and paste a little button code in your blog template, and you can start checking why people are visiting your blog.
Google has recently launched a similar feature: Google Analytics. But if you are not familiar with tracking information, Google analytics can be quite confusing, and their information is not real-time.
