Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about SimpleStats – Friendly Private Website Analytics

SimpleStats is simpler, faster, and more private. You don't need a Google account, you don't need a cookie banner, and you don't have to leave WordPress to see your basic visitor stats.

Most WordPress analytics plugins store every page view in your WordPress database. This slows your site down, bloats your backups, and means a single hack or crash can wipe out years of stats. SimpleStats processes analytics in the cloud, so your site stays fast and your stats stay safe – with the same polished in-dashboard reports you'd expect from a premium analytics tool.

No – quite the opposite. Our tracking script is less than 50kb and loads asynchronously, and we don't write page view data into your WordPress database. Most other analytics plugins do, which silently bloats your DB and slows your site over time.

No. SimpleStats is 100% cookie-free with our simple tracking. This means you don't need a cookie consent banner, and your website is GDPR, CCPA, PECR, and ePrivacy compliant by default.

Yes. SimpleStats was built privacy-first. We don't use cookies, we don't store IP addresses, we don't fingerprint visitors, and we don't sell or share your data. You can use it on any EU site without a consent banner.

This is one of the biggest reasons to use SimpleStats. Your historical analytics are kept safely in our redundant cloud infrastructure, so they survive crashes, hacks, migrations, and downtime. With self-hosted analytics plugins, all that data lives in your WordPress database – one bad day and it can disappear.

Yes! SimpleStats tracks your WooCommerce store's traffic and top product pages out of the box.

Yes. SimpleStats works with WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache, LiteSpeed Cache, and all other popular caching plugins.

Yes, SimpleStats fully supports WordPress Multisite. Each site in your network can have its own statistics dashboard.
