From the analytics page...
| The table shows the search terms by means of which your website was found most frequently. Every row contains a search term. For example, if somebody found your website by means of the phrase "repair car", both "repair" and "car" will be displayed as independent terms in the table. |
|
Why call it terms, when each word is a keyword. The full "term" the user typed into the search box is the "search term". grrr
Does anyone have experience of the premium version of 1&1 site analytics, and if so is the full term information supplied within that?

Getting grumpy in your old age Mack? :)
Any reason why you don't use a free javascript based option like Piwik or the dreaded but ubiquitous GA?

Grumpy indeed lol
I have used both, and I do also run GA on the site in question. I just see radically different statistics between GA and the 1&1 stats. I routinely download log files and use awstats (locally) to do comparisons and this supports the output of the 1&1 data.
I should stop being lazy and build my own!

So your heart is set on logfiles over javascript. *sigh* :)
Well don't reinvent the wheel... There are so many log file analyzers struggling to get your twenty bucks! Awstats is great - but also Faststats and Webalizer both can run locally and pull your log files on the fly (I think... long time since I used them).
