Overview

Statify provides a straightforward and compact access to the number of site views. It is privacy-friendly as it uses neither cookies nor a third party.

An interactive chart is followed by lists of the most common reference sources and target pages. The period of statistics and length of lists can be set directly in the dashboard widget.

Data Privacy

In direct comparison to statistics services such as Google Analytics, WordPress.com Stats and Matomo (Piwik) Statify doesn’t process and store personal data as e.g. IP addresses – Statify counts site views, not visitors.

Absolute privacy compliance coupled with transparent procedures: A locally in WordPress created database table consists of only four fields (ID, date, source, target) and can be viewed at any time, cleaned up and cleared…

Simple, Honest Analytics for WordPress
by Arne Midtlund·3 months ago

Statify is a solid, privacy-friendly analytics solution that does exactly what it promises: simple, no-nonsense page view tracking without cookies or external services. I really appreciate how transparent and lightweight it is—perfect if you care about GDPR compliance, performance, and clean code.

The stats are easy to read and reliable for understanding overall traffic trends and content spikes. If you need more detail, Statify can be extended with additional plugins to expose more data and views, which is a nice option. Personally, I value the core plugin’s simplicity and minimal footprint more than advanced analytics.

Statify is clearly designed for quick insights rather than deep analysis. Things like filtering out your own visits, interpreting historical gaps, or analyzing long-term patterns require some manual reasoning and context.

Overall, Statify shines as a “set it and trust it” plugin. If you want calm, honest numbers, extensibility when needed, and a truly lightweight analytics setup, it’s a very good choice, just don’t expect enterprise-level features.

Extremely light, useful (and privacy respecting!!) plugin
by Mihail Bogatov·10 months ago

Thank you for your great plugin. Very useful, light and informative plugin. BONUS — respects users privacy!

Simple, privacy-friendly stats
by kelson·1 year ago

A simple stats package that runs on your own site, so you aren’t sending visitor data to some third party service just to count page views. Not as full-featured as Jetpack Stats, but much more privacy-friendly! Good for the basic use case of “where are most of my visitors coming from and what are the reading the most?” Works with ClassicPress too!

Supi, übersichtlich, klar

Ein Blick auf die Kurven ist zwar nicht immer erbaulich, aber dafür motivierend 😉
