“(no explicit "what you keep vs. what you give up" comparison to Google Analytics)”
The biggest switching objection for GA users is "will I lose the reports I rely on?" Plausible's page names what it adds (privacy, simplicity) but doesn't address what the visitor fears losing (conversion funnels, audience segments, integrations). The absence forces evaluators to do their own feature comparison.
“Add a "What you keep, what you skip" section: keep pageviews, events, goals, UTMs. Skip: user-level tracking, 500-row reports, cookie banners.”
Naming what you deliberately remove (and why it's a feature, not a loss) converts the "sounds nice but I need my funnels" objector. Reframes the tradeoff as intentional, not accidental.
