​
Start in Writesonic

  1. Head over to the AI Traffic Analytics page on Writesonic
  2. Click on “Wordpress”
  3. Enter your WordPress website domain and click “Continue”

  3. Navigate to Plugins > Add New Plugin > Upload Plugin
  4. Choose the downloaded ZIP file (writesonic-analytics.zip) and click “Install Now”

​
Configure the Plugin

  1. Once activated, navigate to Settings > “Writesonic AI Analytics” in your WordPress admin menu
  2. On the settings page, enter the API Key that was provided in Phase 1
  3. Click “Save Settings” to store your configuration

​
Verify Installation in Writesonic

  1. Return to Writesonic (the page you kept open from Phase 1)
  2. Click on “Verify Connection” to confirm that your Wordpress site is properly connected
  3. Once verified, you’ll be redirected to your analytics dashboard. The process typically finishes in 1–2 minutes but may take up to 5 minutes.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during setup:
  • Ensure your API key is entered correctly
  • Verify that your Wordpress site is publicly accessible
  • Check that the plugin is activated
  • If you have cloudflare setup which is routing traffic to your Wordpress, make sure that it is not overwriting the original request headers
  • For assistance, contact [email protected]

Uninstalling

  2. Deactivate the Writesonic AI Analytics plugin
  3. Click “Delete” to completely remove it
