Understanding website analytics has become a real challenge!
The most well-known free analytics software, Google Analytics, used to be perfect … but after the platform update to GA4, it’s become too difficult to use for small business owners.
Many users asked me to share a Google Analytics alternative, but they are all too expensive because they charge based on the number of visitors you get on your site.
What if there was a solution that could make Google Analytics easy again like it used to be without the HIGH costs?

Background Story – Why OnePageGA?
Understanding Google Analytics 4 reports is a huge struggle for most website owners. That’s because GA4 introduced many new changes, including a completely revamped interface, a new set of metrics, and advanced analysis.
With these changes Google promises better data collection, more privacy controls, and more.
Unfortunately, this also means that even if you were familiar with the previous version of Google Analytics, you would still find it extremely hard to get the right information when you need it.
What good is having access to an abundance of data when you can’t easily see the report that you need.
I even considered using a third-party analytics tool myself, but they all charge based on the number of pageviews which can get really expensive as your website grows.
In the past, I would recommend Jetpack Analytics as a Google Analytics alternative, but they too raised their pricing to charge by the number of pageviews.
I understand that analytics platform can be expensive, but I knew there had to be a solution for our users.
In one of the brainstorming session, we had the AHA moment: we don’t need to build a brand new platform.
We simply need easy reports for Google Analytics and that’s how OnePageGA was born.
OnePageGA grabs all your Google Analytics data and shows it in a one-page, beginner-friendly dashboard, so we can keep the costs manageable for website owners.
