Counter is a simple, privacy-friendly web analytics application built as a small Go server with static assets, storing data in Redis with SQL archiving. It tracks only aggregated data without cookies, fingerprinting, or IP logging, making it cheap to run and privacy-respecting.

Use cases

  • count unique visitors to my website
  • privacy-friendly google analytics alternative
  • self-hosted web analytics without cookies
  • see which sites refer traffic to my site
  • simple visitor counter for a web app
  • lightweight analytics that runs on a cheap VPS

When to choose

  • you need simple, privacy-compliant analytics without cookies or user tracking
  • you want a free or very cheap self-hosted analytics solution
  • you only need aggregate metrics like unique daily visitors and referrals

When to avoid

  • you need detailed per-page analytics, funnels, or user journey tracking
  • you require session-level or individual user behavior analysis
  • you need advanced dashboards with custom events and segmentation
