We now only track sales, stopped Google Analytics or any type of third party analytics. Site analytics can be a waste of energy and time. Also, user privacy is critical for success. With this, we cut our competitors targetting our clients with ads.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Having added Plausible to my site recently, one killer feature in my opinion is the ability to rewrite the analytics script to be served from your own domain. What this means in effect is that it won't get picked up in traditional ad blockers so the accuracy is much closer to that of server log parsing. Additionally, you can surface your analytics publically which is cool.
Cool yeah I don't have something with sufficient page visits to merit analytics but if I did I'd probably reactivate plausible from its dormant status Public analytics seems interesting - have you been able to do anything particularly interesting by leveraging this capability?
I have a Hugo blog running on Netlify. All I need is to know if someone has visited it or not. I'm using Google analytics currently but would gladly use something much simpler. Any alternatives?
