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.

Not a port from another platform. Designed specifically for WordPress with native performance and seamless integration.

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.

Ofte stilte spørsmål
-
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 lagres dataene?
-
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.
-
Trenger jeg en konto?
-
Nei, du trenger ikke en konto; ingen data sendes til et annet nettsted.
-
Er det en grense for antall besøkende jeg kan spore?
-
Nei, det er ingen grense. Den eneste begrensende faktoren er din egen database og server.
-
Det er et alternativ for å bruke sporingsmetoder uten informasjonskapsler hvis du foretrekker det. Men som standard bruker Burst informasjonskapsler fordi de er mer nøyaktige og lette. Når du bruker informasjonskapsler, forblir Burst personvernvennlig fordi alle data er anonyme og lagres på serveren din. Les mer om hvorfor informasjonskapsler er misforstått.
-
Burst Statistics kan brukes uten å sette informasjonskapsler eller lagre data i nettlesere. Dette kan imidlertid påvirke nøyaktigheten, så et hybridalternativ med informasjonskapsler etter samtykke er mulig. Les mer om Cookieless tracking.
-
Hvorfor er Burst Statistics personvernvennlig?
-
Burst Statistics provides an Analytics Dashboard with anonymised data that is yours and yours alone. Read more about Why Burst Statistics is Privacy-Friendly.
-
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.
-
Is it possible to install Burst Statistics with Composer?
-
Absolutely! Both free and premium plugins can be managed with Composer. Read the documentation for more information.
-
Kan jeg gi tilbakemelding om programtillegget?
-
Vi setter pris på tilbakemeldingen din. Du kan sende inn en supportforespørsel på WordPress-forumene, og vi vil svare raskt.
