About this plugin
Your WordPress analytics. One clear view. If you manage several WordPress sites that run Independent Analytics, WP Statistics, Burst Statistics, or Koko Analytics, install Independence Hub Connector on each site to bring their reports into one private dashboard.
See which sites are growing, spot changes worth investigating, and prepare a portfolio report without opening each WordPress admin.
Independence Hub Connector is the bridge between one WordPress site and the hosted Hub. A WordPress administrator approves each connection on their own site. The connector then gives the Hub read-only access to supported aggregate reports from the analytics plugins selected during approval through a revocable, site-specific token.
No WordPress password or Application Password is shared.
Supported WordPress analytics integrations
- Independent Analytics: connect your Independent Analytics sites to compare traffic and explore page, referrer, location, device, and session reports in one Hub dashboard.
- WP Statistics: bring WP Statistics page views, daily visitors, and supported breakdowns together across sites. Unsupported session metrics are clearly labeled.
- Burst Statistics: view Burst Statistics Free page views, visitors, sessions, engagement, and supported traffic breakdowns alongside your other connected sites.
- Koko Analytics: connect Koko Analytics Free sites for page views, visitors, daily trends, top pages, and referrers.
You can connect more than one supported analytics plugin on a site and switch between its reports. The optional Average view uses only plugins with data for each metric and day, with the same calculation for the previous period. Each site still counts once toward your plan.
In the Independence Hub dashboard
- Compare page views, visitors, daily traffic, and sessions where tracked across the WordPress sites you connect.
- Open a site report to explore top pages, sources, locations, devices, and session metrics.
- Group sites by client or portfolio, then include or exclude a group from views and reports.
- Review portfolio Insights and choose the sites and sections for a printable report.
- Save traffic watchlist rules and rolling page-view, visitor, or session targets in the hosted Hub. Rules are checked when you open or refresh the Growth workspace. Optionally enable hourly background checks and email alerts to your verified Hub account email; email alerts are off by default.
- Record launches and campaigns in a private Hub impact journal, with seven-day before/after page-view comparisons when complete data is available within the last 90 days.
The dashboard is a separate hosted service. Create your Hub account to connect sites and view reports. Custom printable reports require the Hub’s Unlimited plan.
What the connector provides
- A guided connection approved by a WordPress administrator on the site itself.
- A read-only connection to approved Independent Analytics, WP Statistics, Burst Statistics, and Koko Analytics data for the Independence Hub dashboard.
- Overview reporting for page views, visitors, daily totals, sessions where tracked, and comparisons with the immediately preceding period.
- Detailed reports with top pages, geographic traffic, device types, traffic sources, and bounce rate. Independent Analytics and Burst Statistics also provide sessions, new and returning sessions, and average session duration; WP Statistics shows “Not tracked by this plugin” for those session metrics. Koko Analytics Free 2.5.3 provides page views, visitors, daily traffic, top pages, and referrers; sessions, duration, bounce rate, new/returning sessions, countries, and devices are labeled “Not tracked by this plugin”. Koko Pro-specific reports are not included.
- Multiple approved analytics plugins per site, with a dashboard selector to view one plugin at a time. Each site counts once toward plan limits and portfolio totals.
- Source-specific comparisons, caches, reports, and saved Growth items; switching dashboard data does not change a saved rule’s analytics plugin.
- Reporting ranges of 7, 28, 30, or 90 days.
- One connection per Hub account email, with individual analytics-plugin revocation and a revoke-all control in Settings → Independence Hub Connector.
Before you connect
- This plugin is a connector, not an analytics dashboard. Create an account at https://app.independence-hub.com/ to view reports from the sites you connect.
- Independent Analytics, WP Statistics, Burst Statistics, and Koko Analytics are separate analytics plugins. At least one must already be installed and active on each site you connect. This connector does not install it or add tracking code.
- It does not provide visitor-level records, change analytics settings, or let Independence Hub administer your WordPress site.
- It does not share a WordPress password or Application Password. Its token can access only this connector’s read-only analytics endpoints; it cannot sign in to WordPress or access other WordPress APIs.
Privacy and security
The connector reads analytics already collected by the selected analytics plugins. It sends the site URL and a random, site-specific token to Independence Hub over HTTPS only when an administrator approves a connection. The Hub uses the token to request the supported aggregate reports; it encrypts the token at rest.
WordPress stores token hashes alongside connected Hub account emails, account identifiers, approved analytics plugins, and approval dates. The connector verifies account identity with Hub over HTTPS before approval. Revoke access at any time from Settings → Independence Hub Connector.
Review the Independence Hub privacy policy and terms of service before connecting.
Affiliation
Independence Hub Connector is an independent third-party project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Independent Analytics, WP Statistics, Burst Statistics, or their developers. These are separate plugins; their names identify compatible software.
