For things like my personal blog I don’t really need complex analytics, just page views is fine so I’m using goatcounter which has been really great so far. It has all I need and nothing more.

Another one for personal sites is GoAccess. No DB needed, only log files. It shows nicely; which page was visited, how often, browser statistics etc. https://goaccess.io/
