How Do You Use Google Analytics 4 to Grow a WordPress Blog?

Updated: July 30, 2026 by Muhammad Adnan

GA Google Analytics and Analytify both connect WordPress to Google Analytics 4, but they solve different problems.

But most WordPress site owners hit the same wall. The tracking is running. The data is flowing. And to actually see it, you still have to open Google Analytics every time. That is where the Analytify vs GA Google Analytics comparison becomes a real question worth answering, and where Analytify consistently wins for WordPress-first users.

This comparison covers setup, dashboards, reporting, tracking, and pricing. You’ll get a full feature table, a decision guide, and a clear answer on which tool works best for WordPress site owners.
