Beautiful plugin
This plugin is small, fast and beautiful. It helps to understand the key metrics of traffic. Where do visitors come from? Which pages are most popular and how much traffic do I have? Additionally, it's possible to track campaigns, which is also nice. So yes, I really like this plugin!

Amazing - reliable and lightweight - independent from Analytics
Google Analytics can be an issue for many websites due to DSGVO and its requirements. So for long time, I was looking for an alternative analytics plugin which is reliable, lightweight and easy to use. Finally, I found Simplest Analytics and it works so well. It's just perfect! Thank you very much for coding this amazing plugin!!!

The only statistics program that finds hidden visitors
I have tested dozens of statistics programs. None of them can find me when I go to the website with VPN and some other protections. This program had no problem with that.
