Independent Analytics

A plug-and-play WordPress analytics plugin. A great replacement of Google Analytics

Independent Analytics is an analytics plugin for WordPress that is super easy to use. It takes no configuration to work. After being installed and activated, the plugin will start to work to collect the traffic data of your site.

Once it has collected enough data (usually after 24 hours), you can start to see the traffic of your website in an easy-to-read chart.

The interface of Independent Analytics is pretty similar to Classic Google Analytics in which the data is way easier to read than the current version (Google Analytics 4).

Independent Analytics can be a great solution if you are looking for a self-hosted analytics tool whether for privacy or performance issues.

With Independent Analytics, the data of your traffic is stored to your site database without being sent to a third-party service like when you are using Google Analytics.

From the visitors' perspective, Independent Analytics is also more GDPA and CCPA friendly because no cookies are used and no personal data saved. It uses a visitor's IP address to get their geolocation and then hashes their IP address with the user agent of their browser and a salt token to create a unique ID, which gets saved to your database.

Independent Analytics Features

Independent Analytics comes with a bunch of handy features to learn the traffic stats of your website. You can use it to monitor daily traffic, weekly traffic, monthly traffic, yearly traffic or traffic during a certain period.
