Congratulations on launching! Don't worry if you don't get much positive feedback here -- this seems like the kind of functionality that doesn't impress the HN crowd, but could become very popular among more often less-technical, actual Ghost users, quietly making you lots of money if marketed/advertised properly.

let's see, thanks very much for your message!

And pardon my thoughts but: if you say "I built Analytics for my Ghost blog" I come expect at hacker news "function and code". What I see there is "I built Analytics for your Ghost blog to pay for" aka advertising for a paid service. Its great, yes, but the headline feels ... wrong?

sorry, I got the point, I'm not a English native speaker and I will try to double check it before post it, thanks for the message!

I expected at least a blog post launching the product... not just a landing page.

You should say "it reached front page" instead of "I found it". Since you were the one who posted it, it shouldn't come as a surprise it's there.

You're right, I just updated it, thanks!

I personally use clicky.com and get similar analytics. I guess this is good, but I don't think it justifies the price considering clicky.com gives you in some cases, more information (ip addresses, heatmaps of where users click, time spent, etc.)

but is your site a Ghost blog? If yes, similar analytics but miss special analytics like SEO and content performence I think. If this tool can identify any visitor, should track them so I doubt about 100% GDPR compliant without opt-in & opt-out. Thanks for your message!

Somehow clicky.com still is. I can track each mouse movement in real-time and check where they go and come from on my website.
