Website owners can still get most of their metrics without google the same way we did it before google existed: they can analyze their Apache/Nginx logfiles. Stats is hard? Find some software that does if for you. Better yet, figure out how to do some of it yourself (it's not paritc8ularly hard). Or hire some statisticians. This way, you free your business from being dependent on a 3rd party.
