Independent Analytics – WordPress Analytics Plugin

Descripción

Google Analytics is complicated!

You shouldn’t have to spend hours on tracking scripts, variables, dimensions, and other complexities just to answer basic questions about your visitors.

That’s why we built Independent Analytics.

Independent Analytics gives you simple, common-sense stats you can use to grow your website.

As a Google Analytics alternative, Independent Analytics also offers superior privacy for yourself and your visitors. It does not use cookies, store personal data, or communicate with external servers. All of your data is created and stored in your WP database.

This is a free plugin and doesn’t require you to create an account on another site.
