Currently working on simplytics.dev 📈🚀 It’s the reasonably priced ($1/month) alternative to Plausible.

Failed projects: Indielytics, the stupid simple public only web analytics
The new layout and design + funnels is finally shipped and live. Check out the demo, i'd love to hear some feedback!

Finally continued working on funnels again, I'm almost finished. But thought I would be here weeks ago...

Getting closer to the finish line, but this weekend is coming to an end. I'll have to pick it up next weekend.

A lot of web analytics does funnels, but unlike other features, all do it a bit differently. You got any unique takes on it?

While working on funnels I realized Simplytics has gotten a need of better navigation, so I started work on that too.

Which got kind of messy since funnels isn't finsihed.

Also turns out comparing months of views to a few days of funnel data makes the conversions look very bad...

Just finished the heatmap functionality and pushed it to www.simplytics.dev!

Users can now see and save a heatmap of the views their website have gotten in the past year⏳

Which style do you prefer #BuildInPublic?

The heatmap is coming along nicely, only some polishing to do left🖌️

Would love input on the design!

Just shipped a new feature to my 100% free tool.

Analyze you server access logs and see amount of views and visitors hour on hour.

Check it out at www.indielytics.link/logs. Would love some testing since I haven't tried it out with all the server log types.

Posting my project indielytics.link on HN gave me some unwanted attention... luckily it was just what I needed to find a vulnerability

Just launched Indielytics on ProductHunt! www.producthunt.com/posts/indiel...

Also the most visits I have ever gotten from a luanch so far!

Always shocks me how effective posting to HN is. Plus the feedback is invalueable #BuildInPublic

Suddenly got that itch

I'm building the first free, no-login, cookieless and public only web analytics.

Made for the #BuildInpublic community!

Super simple tool. Only views and visitors for the past 10 days.

The perfect start for a builder just starting out and wanting to display their progress.

Currently working on adding functionality to let users of Simplytics.dev track multiple websites.

Is there any reason to limit the amount?

When PostHog themselves likes your post doing research for your own alternative 🤩

While I’m currently not using their products I can’t think of a company I’d rather go back to when the time is right.

Pricing doesn’t get more fair and open than at @posthog.com

Working on sessions, bounce rate and views per session for www.simplytics.dev. Any feedback on the design, front-end is not my first language...

How the hell did someone stumble upon my website using a Chinese search engine (Baidu)?

Working on a live demo for simplytics.dev. Got some feedback from users not getting a clear enough picture of what the service offers.

Shouln't be too hard to implement. Just gotta make sure I don't give users of the demo dashboard any important privileges...😵‍💫
