Website Analytics

What is Website Analytics?

Website Analytics lets you connect your existing website (or request a managed Kordless website) to track visitor behavior, measure performance, and understand how customers find you. Get actionable insights without the complexity of traditional analytics platforms.

Kordless Analytics is privacy-first and GDPR compliant. We respect Do Not Track settings and don’t use cookies for tracking.

Installing the Tracking Code

General Installation (All Websites)

Add this code to the <head> section of your website:

<!-- Kordless Analytics -->
<script>
  (function (w, d, s, o, f, js, fjs) {
    w[o] = w[o] || function () {
      (w[o].q = w[o].q || []).push(arguments)
    };
    w[o].l = 1 * new Date();
    js = d.createElement(s), fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
    js.async = 1; js.src = f; js.onerror = function () { 
      console.warn('Kordless Analytics: Failed to load') 
    };
    fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
  })(window, document, 'script', 'ka', 'YOUR_TRACKING_SCRIPT_URL');

  ka('init', 'YOUR_TRACKING_ID');
</script>

Platform-Specific Instructions

WordPress
Shopify
Next.js
React
Vue.js

Option 1: Using a Plugin (Recommended)

Install “Insert Headers and Footers” or similar plugin
Go to Settings → Insert Headers and Footers
Paste the tracking code in the “Scripts in Header” section
Save changes

Option 2: Theme Editor

Go to Appearance → Theme Editor
Open header.php
Add the code before </head>
Save changes

If using Theme Editor, changes may be lost when theme updates. Plugin method is safer.

Go to Online Store → Themes
Click Actions → Edit code
Open “Layout” → theme.liquid
Add the tracking code before </head>
Save

Changes apply to all pages automatically on Shopify.

Add to your app/layout.tsx:

import Script from 'next/script';

export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: {
  children: React.ReactNode;
}) {
  return (
    <html lang="en">
      <head>
        <Script id="kordless-analytics" strategy="beforeInteractive">
          {`
            (function (w, d, s, o, f, js, fjs) {
              w[o] = w[o] || function () {
                (w[o].q = w[o].q || []).push(arguments)
              };
              w[o].l = 1 * new Date();
              js = d.createElement(s);
              fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
              js.async = 1;
              js.src = f;
              fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
            })(window, document, 'script', 'ka', 'YOUR_TRACKING_SCRIPT_URL');

            ka('init', 'YOUR_TRACKING_ID');
          `}
        </Script>
      </head>
      <body>{children}</body>
    </html>
  );
}

Add to your main App.js:

import { useEffect } from 'react';

function App() {
  useEffect(() => {
    const script = document.createElement('script');
    script.innerHTML = `
      (function (w, d, s, o, f, js, fjs) {
        w[o] = w[o] || function () {
          (w[o].q = w[o].q || []).push(arguments)
        };
        w[o].l = 1 * new Date();
        js = d.createElement(s);
        fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
        js.async = 1;
        js.src = f;
        fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
      })(window, document, 'script', 'ka', 'YOUR_TRACKING_SCRIPT_URL');

      ka('init', 'YOUR_TRACKING_ID');
    `;
    document.head.appendChild(script);
  }, []);

  return <YourApp />;
}

Add to your main.js:

import { createApp } from 'vue';
import App from './App.vue';

// Load Kordless Analytics
const script = document.createElement('script');
script.innerHTML = `
  (function (w, d, s, o, f, js, fjs) {
    w[o] = w[o] || function () {
      (w[o].q = w[o].q || []).push(arguments)
    };
    w[o].l = 1 * new Date();
    js = d.createElement(s);
    fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
    js.async = 1;
    js.src = f;
    fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
  })(window, document, 'script', 'ka', 'YOUR_TRACKING_SCRIPT_URL');

  ka('init', 'YOUR_TRACKING_ID');
`;
document.head.appendChild(script);

createApp(App).mount('#app');

Troubleshooting

Tracking Not Working

Check:

Code is in the <head> section
Tracking ID is correct
No JavaScript errors in console
Ad blockers aren’t blocking the script

Solution: Test in incognito mode without extensions

Data Not Appearing

Causes:

Code just installed (wait a few minutes)
Very low traffic
Script blocked by security settings

Solution: Visit your own site and check for data in 5 minutes

High Bounce Rate

This may indicate:

Slow page load times
Content not matching visitor expectations
Poor mobile experience
Technical issues

Solution: Check Core Web Vitals and optimize

Missing Referrer Data

Causes:

HTTPS to HTTP referrer stripping
Privacy browsers hiding referrers
Direct traffic (no referrer)

Note: This is normal behavior, not an error

Best Practices

Install on All Pages

Ensure tracking code is on every page:

Use a global template or layout
Verify with page-by-page testing
Check single-page app navigation

Monitor Core Web Vitals

Google uses these for search rankings:

Check weekly for changes
Address any “needs improvement” scores
Test on real devices, not just desktop

Review Traffic Sources

Understand where visitors come from:

Identify top referrers
Track campaign effectiveness
Spot unusual traffic patterns

Set Up Alerts

Get notified of important changes:

Traffic spikes or drops
Performance degradation
Error rate increases

Alert configuration coming soon!
