Beskrivelse
Finally, analytics that you’ll actually use.
Google Analytics is overkill. Other WordPress statistics plugins are cluttered and confusing. You just want to know what’s happening on your site – without a data science degree.
Burst Statistics gives you a clean, intuitive analytics dashboard focused on the metrics that actually matter. No external accounts. No complex setup. Install, activate, and understand your traffic in seconds.
Trusted by 200,000+ WordPress sites. Built by the experienced team behind UpdraftPlus, WP-Optimize, and All-In-One Security.
What our users are saying
“Finally, an analytics plugin I can actually explain to clients.”
— @anguskeystone on wordpress.org“I tried WP Statistics and Independent Analytics, but they’re overloaded and confusing. Burst’s UI is intuitive and focused on what matters to me.”

Why Burst Statistics?
Designed to be actionable
Other analytics plugins throw everything at you. Burst shows what matters — visitors, pageviews, referrers, top pages — in a dashboard you’ll actually use. No overload of data. No confusing menus.
Privacy-first by design
All statistics stay on your server. No external tracking. Your data is yours – we never see it without your explicit permission.
Zero setup friction
Install, activate, done. No Google accounts, no tracking codes, no configuration headaches. Start seeing live visitors immediately.
Built for WordPress
Not a port from another platform. Designed specifically for WordPress with native performance and seamless integration.
Fast and lightweight
Optimized database queries, no bloated scripts (<4kb tracking script), no external dependencies slowing down your pages. Designed to track accurately even when using aggressive server-side caching.

Privacy and Data Sharing
Burst Statistics includes an optional data sharing program. It is disabled by default. You can enable it under Burst Statistics Settings Data Sharing, and you can turn it off again at any time from the same location.
When enabled, the plugin sends a small set of aggregated, anonymized metrics to Burst Statistics’ servers once per month. This includes traffic statistics (visitors, pageviews, bounce rate, session duration), database row counts and query performance timings. No personal data, IP addresses, domain names, or visitor information is ever transmitted. All data is aggregated on your server before it leaves, making it impossible to trace back to your website or any individual user.
We use this data to:
* build anonymous industry benchmarks so you can compare your site’s performance against peers;
* understand which features are most used, so we can prioritize development effectively;
* know which WordPress and PHP versions are in active use, so we can make informed support decisions;
* identify slow database queries across real-world installs, so we can improve plugin performance for everyone.
For the complete list of data fields collected and full details on how the data is used, please read our Data Sharing Policy.

FAQ
-
Is Burst really free?
-
Yes. Burst Statistics is 100% free with no tracking limits. Pro is optional for users who need advanced features like UTM tracking, revenue attribution, geographic data or reporting. That’s how we can keep Burst Statistics Free for most users.
-
Hvor er dataene gemt?
-
All statistics are stored in your own WordPress database. Unlike Google Analytics or cloud-based tools, we have zero access to your data. Your data never leaves your server, unless you manually opt in to share anonymous usage insights with us.
-
Is Burst a good Google Analytics alternative?
-
Yes. If you find GA4 too complex or are concerned about sending visitor data to Google, Burst is the perfect replacement. You get the statistics you actually need – visitors, referrers, top pages, conversions – without the overwhelm.
-
Skal jeg have en konto?
-
Nej, du behøver ikke en konto; ingen data sendes til en anden hjemmeside.
-
Er der en grænse for, hvor mange besøgende jeg kan spore?
-
Nej, der er ingen grænse. Den eneste begrænsende faktor er din egen database og server.
-
Der er en mulighed for at bruge cookieløs sporing, hvis du foretrækker det. Men som standard bruger Burst cookies, fordi de er mere præcise og lette. Mens du bruger cookies, forbliver Burst privatlivsvenlig, fordi alle data er anonyme og gemt på din server. Læs mere om hvorfor cookies er misforstået.
-
Burst Statistics kan bruges uden at sætte cookies eller gemme data i browsere. Dette kan dog påvirke nøjagtigheden, så en hybrid mulighed med cookies efter samtykke er mulig. Læs mere om Cookieless tracking.
-
Hvorfor er Burst Statistics privatlivsvenlig?
-
Burst Statistics tilbyder et analyse-kontrolpanel med anonymiserede data, der er dine og kun dine. Læs mere om Hvorfor Burst Statistics er privatlivsvenlig.
-
How is Burst different from WP Statistics or Independent Analytics?
-
Burst focuses on clarity over quantity. While other plugins can feel cluttered and overwhelming, Burst’s dashboard is designed to show you what matters without the noise. Users consistently mention our clean, intuitive interface as the reason they switched.
-
Can I use Burst alongside Google Analytics?
-
Yes. Many users run both during a transition period or keep GA4 for historical data while using Burst for daily insights. There’s no conflict.
-
Does Burst Statistics slow down my website? ?
-
No. Burst is built for performance with optimized database queries, minimal tracking scripts, and Turbo Mode if speed is more important than accuracy. Your site stays fast.
-
Does Burst work with WooCommerce?
-
Yes. Basic pageview tracking works in the free version. For revenue tracking, product analytics, and sales attribution, you’ll need Burst Pro.
-
How do I migrate from another analytics plugin?
-
Install and activate Burst — it starts tracking immediately. Historical data from other plugins can’t be imported, but you can run both side-by-side during a transition period.
-
Er det muligt at installere Burst Statistics med Composer?
-
Absolut! Både gratis og premium-plugins kan administreres med Composer. Læs dokumentationen for mere information.
-
Kan jeg give feedback om plugin’et?
-
Vi værdsætter din feedback. Du kan indsende en supportanmodning på WordPress-foraene, og vi vil svare hurtigt.
