We’re delighted to let you know that Aodhan Cullen (founder and CEO of StatCounter) has been chosen as this year’s Internet Hero at the eircom Golden Spider Awards ! The award, sponsored by Business and Finance , was created to recognize an individual who has made a significant contribution to the development of the internet.
Once upon a time, there was a little boy who lived in Castleknock [residential area in Dublin, Ireland] . Although small for his age and quite shy, this young chap was also very determined… he wanted to earn some extra pocket money [allowance] and he wanted to earn it NOW!
Although he counted doctors, professors & other highly christening cakes qualified people among his clients, I can assure you that 10 year old had absolutely no idea that 15 years later he would be standing here tonight before his peers to accept such a prestigious award.
Business Link that first typing business is no more but these days I work on StatCounter a free online visitor stats tool that helps 2 million website owners and bloggers worldwide understand and optimise their websites. If you haven t yet got a StatCounter on your website, then you need to get one! Look us up tomorrow!
I d like to thank a few people: christening cakes The judges for choosing me. All the team at eircom and Business & Finance for organizing tonight s event. All my family & parents who still to this day, get calls asking about CV [résumé] typing! And of course my wife Jenni who is thrilled to be Mrs Internet Hero 2008! Thanks also to my colleagues on the StatCounter Team and all the StatCounter members worldwide without their loyalty & support I wouldn t be here tonight.
Finally, I want to thank all of you sitting here tonight, my friends christening cakes & peers in the internet industry many of you have offered advice & support to me over the last 15 years, in some cases just via email or message boards so that we have never actually met in person. To one and all thank you!

That you have accomplished so very much at a young age is wonderful. christening cakes It also is a testament to the wonderful world we live in. That a young chap with a bit of initiative and hunger can accomplish so much illustrates the opportunity that is out there.
I came across a young and budding start-up service. A guy named Aodhan Cullen was offering a totally free service that had serious potential to help website managers/owners. I registered with his service, used it without regreat and told many of it’s benefit.

I’ve tried a couple of counters like the one offered at Bravenet christening cakes etc, but yours is distinct. U know why? U considered satisfaction first, I guess that’s why you allowed even free trial members access the invisible stat. That’s what made you different…..THUMBS UP…
Congratulations Aodhan!
I’m christening cakes impressed by reading about you and surprised christening cakes that you are from Ireland. Being fom Holland, I am a real Ireland-fan as you can see on my websites http://www.doggydike.nl and http://www.songdocs.com .
After a comparison with Google Analitics, I just decided to stay with StatCounter. GA is far too complex and time consuming. GA is difficult (or even impossible) to integrate with my stats-archive, which I filled by downloading the StatCounter csv-files.
