This simply means you can now see Active aka Online visitors on your site. There are free Real-Time Web Analytics services like whos.amung.us and Trend counter to track live traffic but they show bloated stats. On comparing whos.amung.us live stats with Analytics Realtime, we found that whos.amung.us shows double live visitors than what’s shown by Analytics. Certainly, the figures shown by Google Analytics are much precise.

Realtime traffic reports are a good way to measure the immediate impact of social media. With Real-Time, you can see the immediate impact to your site traffic whenever you publish a new blog post and share it on social sites like Twitter, Facebook, and Google+.

How to Access Real-Time Stats in Google Analytics –

Firstly, switch to the New Version of Google Analytics. (Click the “New Version” link at top right corner on the Analytics webpage). Then tap the Dashboards tab and select the Overview option listed under Real-Time (beta). The Real-time reports will be moved to the Home tab in the updated interface next week.

You will have access to Real-Time reports if you are an Administrator on your Analytics account, or if you have access to a profile without profile filters. Real-Time does not support profile filters.

Realtime reports are being enabled for several accounts and everyone would be able to access them in coming weeks. However, if you can’t wait then you can get it now by applying for early access here: https://services.google.com/fb/forms/realtimeanalytics/

It got enabled for us just in a few minutes after applying. To see real-time data reports, visit: https://www.google.com/analytics/web/#realtime. The webpage shows Pageviews per minute/sec along with the Top Active Pages, top referrals, top keywords, etc.

There are various formatting options that can be used to generate the text in a desired size and font. To write in your language, just visit www.google.com/transliterate. Choose the output language and then start writing. Then copy-paste the conversion anywhere.

For example: When you type namaste, it will get converted to ?????? after hitting Space bar. Clicking on the translated word will show other related words that you can select if the initial word is not relevant. Make sure to type in Hindi (just like SMS language) to get the Hindi conversion in Devanagari script.

Transliteration bookmarklet – This comes handy when you want to type in your language easily on any website. The tool uses the Google transliteration service in the background. To use the bookmarklet to type in Hindi, just drag the Hindi Bookmarklet to your Bookmarks bar. [Visit here to get other language bookmarklets]

To write in Hindi, click on the bookmarklet and you’ll notice a bold ? in the typing filed. This means that you can now start typing and text will get converted into set language.

If you want to type anywhere in your language without need of an Internet connection, then install the Transliteration IME, available for Windows OS (32-bit and 64-bit).

Google Transliteration IME is an input method editor which allows users to enter text in one of the supported languages using a roman keyboard. Users can type a word the way it sounds using Latin characters and Google Transliteration IME will convert the word to its native script. Note that this is not the same as translation – it is the sound of the words that is converted from one alphabet to the other, not their meaning.

Besides this, there is also a very popular and good online service “Quillpad”.
