What you need
Independence Hub brings the Independent Analytics reports from your WordPress sites into one private account. Independent Analytics collects the traffic on each site; the Independence Hub Connector lets the Hub read its reports.

- Open the verification email and follow its link. Once your email is verified, sign in to the Hub.

- Install and activate the connector on that WordPress site, then return to the Hub and choose Step 2: Connect this site.
- Sign in to WordPress as an administrator if prompted. Review and approve the connection, then wait to return to the Hub.
