To celebrate $10k MRR, we're dedicating 5% of our revenue to the environment and open source. That's $842 in January alone!
Every subscriber contributes to this and the price you pay doesn’t change. Thank you for helping us make a bit of a difference!
There's now a WordPress proposal to treat Google FL*C as a security concern. WordPress powers 41% of the web and this move could help get rid of FL*C! 👀🤞

Plausible has opted out of Google FLoC!
Visits to our site will not be included when Google determines a cohort to share with their partners for personalized advertising purposes.
We recommend other sites to opt out of FLoC too!
So nice to be featured in the Tech Radar by ThoughtWorks: "An opinionated guide to technology frontiers" 🤩🙏
Want to isolate your blog posts and see their stats independently from the rest of your site?
You can do so using our pageview goals.
This also works for any other section of your site that you'd like to analyze on its own.
Our March 2021 in numbers:
89,249 site visitors
1,196 trial signups
474 new subscribers (45% conversion rate)
$4,460 net MRR growth
We were also able to add $1,549 to our 5% donation fund which makes it $3,345 in total for the first quarter of the year!

"Facebook Analytics is Going Away"
Google Analytics next? 👀
83,845 visitors to our website this month (new record)! 📈
P.S. Some of you asked for it so you can now hover over unique visitors and total pageviews in the top graph to see the full numbers
Onboarded our largest subscriber yet! A site with 150 million monthly pageviews! 🤯
Speed is a key feature for us so we made the dashboard load fast even at those traffic levels. They got on a yearly plan after a successful trial 🥰
Firefox 87 is released today and it joins Chrome and Safari in not sending the full URL of the referral source but only the referring domain name.
With our stats API you can take any specific metric and present it wherever you want in whichever shape you want.
With our embed mode you can take your complete dashboard and present it wherever you want. Great example below 👇
"When there are third-party tools that do provide useful analytics for us in a way that meets our privacy bar and make sense cost-wise for our use case, we do look into it... One of those is privacy-forward Plausible"

26 subscribers yesterday is our new record! Previous best was February 4th with 23 subscribers 🔥
We're now trusted by 2,421 subscribers to deliver their website and business insights. Thank you! 🙏
Made it to 1 billion pageviews! 🔥
We've counted 1,117,673,728 pageviews to date with about half of that in the last three months alone 📈
We got 648 unique visitors from organic Google search yesterday. Best day yet for us.
It has been a long way getting to this number though. We had 1 unique visitor from Google on March 8th 2020.
For bootstrapped startups, organic search is the best way to get quality traffic.
It takes a lot of time and effort to build up the search traffic. We started publishing posts regularly one year ago.
Second consecutive quarter of decline for Google Analytics! 🔻👀
Good start of the week for us! Trending on Hacker News and a few subreddits helped push us over 6k stars on GitHub! #degoogle 🤩
