Vercel Web Analytics Implementation

Summary

Successfully installed and configured Vercel Web Analytics for this plain HTML/JavaScript project.

Changes Made

Modified Files:

  • index.html - Added Vercel Analytics script tag

Implementation Details

Since this is a plain HTML/JavaScript project without a build system or package.json, I used the CDN-based approach as recommended in the official Vercel Analytics documentation.

What was added:

  • Added <script defer src="https://cdn.vercel-insights.com/v1/script.js"></script> to the <head> section of index.html
  • The script is loaded with the defer attribute to ensure it doesn't block page rendering
  • Placed after stylesheets but before the closing </head> tag, following standard best practices

Documentation Reference

The implementation follows the latest official Vercel Analytics documentation fetched from:

For HTML5 projects, Vercel recommends using the CDN script approach which automatically initializes analytics tracking once deployed to Vercel.

Next Steps

To activate analytics tracking:

  1. Deploy the project to Vercel using vercel deploy
  2. Enable Web Analytics in your Vercel dashboard (Project Settings → Analytics)
  3. Once enabled, the script will automatically start tracking page views and web vitals
  4. View analytics data in the Vercel dashboard after users visit your site

Testing

The analytics script will only send data when:

  • The site is deployed on Vercel
  • Web Analytics is enabled in the Vercel dashboard
  • The deployment is in production mode or the analytics feature is enabled for preview deployments

For local testing, you can verify the script loads correctly in the browser's Network tab (the request will fail locally but succeed once deployed).

Notes

  • No npm package installation was required for this HTML-only project
  • The CDN script is lightweight and loads asynchronously with defer attribute
  • No changes to existing functionality - the analytics integration is completely non-invasive
  • The script automatically tracks page views, navigation, and web vitals metrics
