An Indie Dev Based in Philadelphia

Hey, I'm Andrew, an indie developer based in Philadelphia. I'm building Independent Analytics, a free analytics plugin for WordPress.

Independent Analytics is a fresh take on analytics specifically designed for WordPress sites.

It's tied in closely with your WordPress site, giving you access to analytics that involve WooCommerce orders, posts, comments, authors, categories, tags, publish dates, and more. It lets you ask more interesting questions like:

  1. Which referrers drove the most WooCommerce sales?
  2. Which post has the highest visitor growth in the "PHP" category this month?
  3. What are the most popular terms people search for?

That's just scratching the surface.

Are you interested in an analytics tool that's actually designed for WordPress?
