This post announces the public availability of Cloudflare Web Analytics, allowing users to integrate it into any website via a JavaScript snippet. This expands the analytics offering beyond existing Cloudflare customers who previously relied on DNS changes. The post details the privacy-first approach, emphasizing no user tracking, no cookies, and no fingerprinting. It explains the core metrics (page views, visits) and features like global filters, zoom, and group-by functionality. The technical implementation leverages client-side tracking, similar to other popular analytics tools, contrasting with Cloudflare's traditional edge-based analytics.
