Years ago, when you needed a simple way of displaying stats in your WordPress Dashboard, the only set and forget option was WordPress Stats which later got incorporated into Jetpack. And for years, that’s exactly what I installed in WordPress sites. But besides the fact of Jetpack slowing your site down, its Stats module is not a privacy friendly one. Thankfully, we have a much better option now!
Hello Koko Analytics
Koko Analytics for WordPress, created by my friend Danny van Kooten, is a sweet little plugin that is optimized for three things:
- collecting web traffic statistics for your site
- doing so in a perfectly privacy-friendly manner
- extremely performance friendly
I urge you to check it out and add Koko Analytics to your WordPress toolbelt for simple and privacy friendly stats. I should probably change the title to “for simple and privacy friendly stats” 😏
