Google Analytics remains the top choice for comprehensive website analytics. Its integration with Drupal 10 involves a simple module installation, enabling access to extensive data about traffic patterns and user behaviour.
For a straightforward approach, Drupal 10 offers built-in analytics features. While not as comprehensive as specialised tools, they provide a solid starting point for basic analytics needs.
Effective SEO strategies are driven by data. The analytics tools in Drupal 10 offer valuable insights that can inform and refine your SEO approach, aiding in improved search engine rankings and increased online visibility.
Optimizing your website for search engines is crucial.

A fantastic website is only truly valuable when it effectively reaches and engages users.
