In this video we install a self-hosted web analytics tool on a server.
So with our earlier video on self-hosting you might be looking at replacing Google Analytics. Especially as it gets deemed illegal in more countries and Google is switching versions on everyone.

For more on the why, or if you missed it, see our video on why you might want to self-host: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liedaNuG6e8
