Organizational shifts toward flatter hierarchies and project-based work have also impacted compensation structures. This broader view explains the complex pressures affecting IT salaries globally. reply

DNS Leaks or Public Records DNS Propagation: When you create a subdomain (e.g., blog.yoursite.com), your DNS provider (e.g., Cloudflare, GoDaddy) updates global DNS servers. These records are public and visible to anyone who queries the DNS (e.g., via dig blog.yoursite.com). WHOIS Data: If your domain registration details are public (not privacy-protected), your subdomain’s ownership info may be exposed.

Which Fits You? For simplicity: Use server logs + GoAccess (no code changes). For insights: Self-host Matomo (privacy-first). For a retro feel: Client-side counter (least reliable but fun).
