Editorial take
Why it stands out
Cloudflare Web Analytics should be framed as a lightweight analytics baseline, not as a competitor to full product analytics stacks.
Loading
Tool profile
Privacy-first, free web analytics from Cloudflare for page views and user experience data without changing DNS or proxy setup.
Website traffic and page-view analytics
Cloudflare Web Analytics is worth adding because it solves a very specific and very practical analytics problem: teams that want lightweight site analytics and real-user performance visibility without the complexity or privacy baggage of a larger product analytics suite. It is intentionally narrower than tools like PostHog or Amplitude, but that focus is part of its value.
The official docs make the pricing story unusually simple: Cloudflare Web Analytics is free. There is no public paid plan grid on the docs page. Instead, the product is positioned as a privacy-first analytics layer available to anyone with a Cloudflare account, even without moving DNS or using Cloudflare proxying. That makes it especially attractive for teams who want a low-friction analytics baseline rather than a whole analytics platform rollout.
