Best site, plugin, etc. to track stats?

Featured Replies

I want a better way to track clicks, bounce rate, traffic, and so on. I have a few WordPress sites but I also have a few that are not WordPress. I would honestly prefer to just have everything done in one place for me for all my sites. Is there anything out there like this that isn't expensive... preferably free?

If you want to just go with something tried and true, use Google Analytics. They are accurate and I believe there is a WordPress plug-in for WP powered websites. I have used it on and off over the years and I have no complaints. It seems fairly accurate.

I was going to say the same thing. I mean Google Analytics works off Google. Most people use Google's search engine. It makes sense to want to ensure you are getting the bet stats from them. You can run a secondary plugin or program to compare things as well. You don't need to use just one.

This is true too. You can use multiple. I have done this in the past. There are also options like Matomo (although this is the only one I would recommend using) which are self-hosted. I don't know if a lot of people are aware of it or not.

There are others that are self-hosted too. Plausible is a good one. I found that one to be better than Matomo for me. It is more simple and easier to set up.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that one. I actually used Plausible before I tried Matomo. The thing is, Motomo is more useful and in depth. It helps you track way more and goes into greater detail. I would compare Plausible to something you'd find in a WP plugin.
