The idea is great, but price is way too high for a simple site. Many people are interested in anonymised data like pageviews and geographical distribution, for example, but these people pay 10€/year for domain and often 0 for hosting for static site generators. 12€/month is just really expensive at this level, but good luck and I’m sure for many people it’s totally fine price.

The pricing is for unlimited websites/domains.

Don't worry mate, it's $12 (USD) not €12 (Eur). ;-)

I agree. It would be better to make the pricing proportional to traffic and have a free tier. With a single price you're both pricing out small people who just host blogs or whatever and aren't going to pay more than $10/year, and also way undercharging businesses who don't really differentiated between $10/month and $50/month.

I thought about this, but I love the unlimited part, competitors start with $9 a month for limited visits, for my your credit card charge will be always the same. No matter how popular your website will get. No surprises.

Agreed. Maybe a free or very cheap ($5 or $10 a year, something like that) for the very basic stuff: pageviews and referral urls maybe.

I disagree. If he’s a solo developer he doesn’t need to worry about free or cheap people. He needs to find people who value what he has built at a higher level and tailor it to them. The pricing looks great to me.

If it's a single developer just starting out, the cheap customers aren't going to be the ones keeping development going. Increasing the price isn't a terrible idea though.

i actually think its way too cheap, i suspect 80% of revenue in the analytics space comes from customers paying more than $2k a month.
