Currently working on simplytics.dev ๐๐ Itโs the reasonably priced ($1/month) alternative to Plausible. Failed projects: Indielytics, the stupid simple public only web analytics

15.04.2025 12:01 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Finally picked up working on funnels @ Simplytics.dev again
The update will also come with a new sidenav
#BuildInPublic
Heads-up to the few of you using Indielytics.link!
Iโm shutting it down soon, itโs purpose was to drive traffic to Simplytics.dev, which it did but not enough to justify costs
Finally continued working on funnels again, I'm almost finished. But thought I would be here weeks ago...
#BuildInPublic
Getting closer to the finish line, but this weekend is coming to an end. I'll have to pick it up next weekend.
A lot of web analytics does funnels, but unlike other features, all do it a bit differently. You got any unique takes on it?
#BuildInPublic
While working on funnels I realized Simplytics has gotten a need of better navigation, so I started work on that too.
Which got kind of messy since funnels isn't finsihed.
Also turns out comparing months of views to a few days of funnel data makes the conversions look very bad...
#BuildInPublic
Supabase at the moment, but ready to migrate to clickhouse if ever needed

Finally started work on funnels for Simplytics.dev! Almost finised on the backend, just need to add support for wildcard (*) routes.
Currently working on the hard part, forntend design...
Also, just reached 400 followers here on BlueSky! #BuildInPublic
Yea ofcourse, thanks a lot. WIll look into it!

18.01.2025 15:42 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I think thats always going to be a problem, but at the same time it's hard to build and audience in a indie hacking community without actually building anything
18.01.2025 15:39 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Most probable scenario is that someone has already done this or thought of it and realized it was a bad idea.
But if you really got that golden idea then get maybe get halfway done before you start building in public, that way If someone decides to copy you they will have to be 2x faster than you
Continuing improvement at Simplytics.dev as always, just adjusted the pricing $1 / month web analytics!

18.01.2025 14:35 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0To get more spread with word of mouth I just pushed one of the biggest changes so far to my web analytics:
Simplytics.dev is now $1 per month! (previously $3/month)
This of course also applies to existing users. More coming soon! #BuildInPublic
Thanks, yea I definitely need a better onboarding
18.01.2025 11:09 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Thatโs a good idea, offering a trial that aligns with the most used snapshot

I'm doing a 7 day one at simplytics.dev, but that may be too short.
Feels like it can't prove it's worth in just 7 days. #BuildInPublic
Haven't have any updates pushed this week but I'm as always working on improving simplytics.dev

17.01.2025 21:33 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Testing www.indielytics.link from @avfrosta.bsky.social on my personal site. If it turns out that I have some actual traffic visiting it I will upgrade to the paid service ๐
14.01.2025 06:20 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 1 ๐ฌ 2 ๐ 0Thanks a lot for trying it out, since Iโm not planning on doing much for for Indielytics I have now made it open source, can be found on GitHub.
Simplytics got my full focus now, let me know if you try it out or got any suggestions
Thanks a lot for recommending Simplytics!
14.01.2025 20:43 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Just open-sourced a project for the first time: github.com/Avfrosta/Ind...
It's a super simple public only web analytics (atleast in this configuration).
#BuildInPublic
Currently adding Google OAuth to Simplytics, the only option atm is GitHub.
What OAuth options do you have / think are necessary?

Users can now see and save a heatmap of the views their website have gotten in the past yearโณ
Which style do you prefer #BuildInPublic?
Tack!
