A little while ago I mentioned we (Joel and I) were creating our very first WordPress plugin.

A blog statistic plugin that gathers all the different stats (over 50) required in order for you to monitor the success of your blog.

I also mentioned we were close to launching.

Well…we thought we were!

But with more testers on board we found a few more problems and we are now rectifying them.

We could have launched as we were but going live when you know there are bugs in the software is just not right.

Can you imagine the support headache?

Our reputation would have be ruined…well any little reputation we have!

So we are doing more testing, more bug fixing plus we are adding Aweber stats into the plugin as well.

Aweber was one of the main stats we wanted to include within the plugin when we first started the build (over 6 months ago now!) but they did not have any automatic way of capturing their statistics.

BUT ONLY THIS WEEK…

…Aweber have announced they now have an API interface. That means we can now include Aweber stats into our Pro Blog Stats plugin…automatically.

That’s going to take a little extra work but we are close to launching…honest!

I shall keep you updated on progress.
