## Àpèjúwe

The best Google Analytics alternative for WordPress

Fathom Analytics is a simple-to-use, privacy-focused (GDPR-compliant) website analytics
tool for your WordPress site. You don’t have to edit the code in your WordPress 
template to start using our software.

👉 **[Check out our live demo](https://app.usefathom.com/demo) or [sign up for a free 30-day trial](https://app.usefathom.com/register)**.

You’ll need a [subscription](https://app.usefathom.com/register) to Fathom Analytics
to start collecting stats with this plugin, and our pricing starts at just $14/month.
Instead of generating revenue from your visitors’ data, we charge a fair and sustainable
price for all our plans. Our business model is privacy-first by design.

### Why use Fathom Analytics?

Google Analytics is time-consuming to use and difficult to understand. Google also
kills off its popular software far too often (like Universal Analytics). That’s 
why Fathom Analytics exists: to make website analytics easy and quick to understand.

Thousands of customers, from governments and banks to small businesses and bloggers,
trust their website analytics to Fathom.

### Import from Google Analytics

[We’ve got an importer](https://usefathom.com/features/ga-importer) to save your
UA (Universal Analytics) and GA4 data. Because we’ve got unlimited data retention,
you can keep and view your stats forever.

### Setup in minutes

Because Fathom Analytics is a [single line of code](https://usefathom.com/docs/script/embed),
and our WordPress plugin doesn’t even require any coding, you can go from starting
a trial to seeing real-time data within a few minutes. [Learn how to set up our plugin here](https://usefathom.com/docs/integrations/wordpress).

### Comply with privacy laws

The best lawyers and legal minds worldwide regarding digital privacy have ensured
that Fathom Analytics is fully compliant with [GDPR, CCPA, ePrivacy, PECR and more](https://usefathom.com/compliance).

### No cookie banners are required

We invented the now industry-standard method for anonymizing visitor data without
using cookies. That means you don’t have to clutter your site or slow it down with
cookie banner plugins or consent notices for your site’s analytics.

### Email reports

Get a snapshot of your website or websites delivered to your inbox so you can see
your critical stats without even having to log into Fathom Analytics. These reports
can be set up for any dashboard (or all of them) and sent to anyone (at your company,
to your clients, whomever you want).

### Shared or private dashboards

Want to grant access to specific website dashboards for particular clients/employees?
Or make your dashboard 100% public? Fathom Analytics lets you create private, public
or passworded dashboards without needing an account.

### More features

 * Simple options page within WordPress admin
 * Ability to not track yourself or specific user roles with a single click
 * Search within dashboard boxes
 * Tiny, lightweight script thatÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s great for your SEO
 * Dark mode
 * All sites view to see all your sites at a glance
 * And much more

## FAQ

For more details about Fathom, [visit our website](https://usefathom.com) or check
out [our documentation](https://usefathom.com/docs).

### Why isn’t Fathom free like Google Analytics?

If you arenÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t paying for a product, you are the product. ThatÌtumọ̀
Yorùbá: ’s why Google Analytics is free, because they make enough money off the 
personal data their customers give them by using their analytics service. We charge
a small and sustainable fee for Fathom because our business model is selling software,
not data (these very different business models). Our customers gladly pay for our
service because they know their data is safe with us and their visitors’ privacy
is protected. As a profitable business, weÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re in this for the long
haul.

### How long do you store my analytics data?

Forever. Meaning, as long as you are a customer, you can access your data all the
way back to when you signed up for an account. 7 days, or even 30 days, doesnÌtumọ̀
Yorùbá: ’t give you a clear enough picture of if your website is trending up or 
down, which is why we give you data retention forever.

 [Shawn Hesketh](https://profiles.wordpress.org/shawndh/) Ọwẹ́wẹ̀ 16, 2025

There is something so satisfying about having a website that doesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá:’

s data. With Fathom Analytics, I donÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t have to invade anyoneÌtumọ̀

traffic. Plus, it loads so fast it doesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t impact page load speeds.
Want to slow your site down? Install Google Analytics. Want to get to know your 
website visitors without spying on them? Use Fathom Analytics.

This update includes breaking changes, so please read this message.

Yorùbá: ’ve been busy at work on Fathom V2 all year. In this major update of the

the guidelines to include some of the new changes we have made. Firstly, the concept
of a “Dashboard URL” doesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t exist within V2, and you simply use 
the CDN URL! Nice and easy. But we have left the Dashboard URL in place for our 
V1 users who self-host. WeÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ve also added the ability for V2 users
