Independent Analytics Pro is now preinstalled on every WordPress site we host, an easy-to-use, privacy-focused alternative to Google Analytics built specifically for WordPress. All of the features that normally cost $49+ per year are included with your WebOps Hosting plan, with no setup needed on your end.

Why Independent Analytics?

Independent Analytics gives you a simple dashboard for tracking visitors, traffic sources, geographic data, and device information directly inside your WordPress admin. No external accounts, no tracking code to install. It is privacy-first by design: data is stored locally, with no cookies and no personal data, which means full GDPR and CCPA compliance and no need for cookie consent popups.

Key Features

• Effortless WordPress integration, install and activate and it works
• No performance impact thanks to asynchronous data collection
• Fully private analytics, no third-party contact, full compliance with privacy laws
• Visual, customizable dashboards for quick insights on visitor behavior, popular pages, and traffic sources
• Compatible with WordPress multisite, each subsite gets its own dashboard
• Filter and analyze by page type, author, or publication date
• Pro version features including UTM campaign tracking, ecommerce analytics, form tracking, and click tracking

What's Changing for New Sites and Hosting Plans

For new sites, we are moving away from Google Analytics by default. Google Analytics typically requires more technical setup, is less privacy-friendly, and frequently needs cookie banners and consent management. Independent Analytics replaces all of that with one-click activation, zero-cookie tracking, and compliance out of the box.

As we expand CDN usage to improve site performance, bandwidth measured from the server is becoming less representative of what your site is actually doing. Our hosting plans will begin to factor in website visitors, powered by Independent Analytics metrics, rather than storage and raw bandwidth. The shift makes plan usage more transparent and relevant as traffic and bandwidth costs move toward premium services like QUIC.cloud. Independent Analytics lets both of us keep clear tabs on website activity with stats anyone can understand.

If You Still Need Google Analytics

If your business requires Google Analytics (for example, to run Google Ads campaigns or feed advanced marketing integrations), our Analytics and Tag Management service provides Google Analytics setup and configuration for a low one-time fee, so you can keep traditional tracking when you need it.

What This Means for You

• You focus on your business and we handle your website analytics
• No extra setup, no technical knowledge needed, no more confusing web tools
• Clear, actionable insights you can actually use to grow your business

If your site collects customer information (via forms, orders, or newsletters), our Privacy Compliance service helps you keep everything privacy-friendly and compliant.
