A Quick Guide to Independent Analytics

Marc from MainWP explores a fresh alternative to Google Analytics—Independent Analytics—and its brand-new MainWP extension. This GDPR-compliant analytics plugin installs directly inside your WordPress admin and now integrates with the MainWP dashboard. In this walkthrough, Marc shows how to install the plugin on a child site and connect it to the MainWP dashboard without ever needing to visit the child site directly. This is Marc’s first time using Independent Analytics, so the video captures an honest, real-time experience from installation to first impressions. If you’re a WordPress agency or freelancer looking for a lightweight, privacy-respecting analytics option, this might be worth a look. Plus, if you’re developing a MainWP extension, Marc shares a quick invite to get in touch—we’d love to feature your work in a future video. 🔗 Useful Links: • Guide to developing MainWP extensions: https://mainwp.dev/ • Learn more about Independent Analytics here: https://independentwp.com/ • Develop with us!: https://mainwp.dev/partner-program/ • Independent Analytics plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/independent-analytics/ • Independent Analytics MainWP add-on: https://wordpress.org/plugins/independent-analytics-for-mainwp/ • Check out MainWP: https://mainwp.com/ 👉 Visit our Facebook users group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/MainWPUsers 👉 Visit our community site: https://managers.mainwp.com/ 👉 Visit our homepage: https://mainwp.com/ #WordPress #Agency #Developer #Freelancer #Designer #MainWP #Freelancing #GDPRAnalytics #IndependentAnalytics
