Yes. You can add as many websites as you want under a single account. You will be charged for the total pageviews on all of your websites combined. For example, on the 10k plan you can either have 10 websites that each get 1000 pageviews per month, or one website that gets 10,000 pageviews per month.
You don't have to pay for a one-time spike in traffic, but if you go over your plan limit for 2 months in a row, we will contact you to discuss upgrade options.

Google Analytics is free because Google has built their company and their wealth by collecting and analyzing huge amounts of personal information from web users and using these personal and behavioral insights to sell advertisements.
With Plausible, you 100% own and control all of your website data. This data is not being shared with or sold to any third-parties. Since we don't make money from targeted advertisement, we must ask for a small fee to keep the servers running.
We take painstaking care to not collect or store any personal information that could be tied back to the visitor. You own your data and we will never sell it or use it in nefarious ways. <%= link("Read more about our data policy", to: "/data-policy", class: "text-indigo-600") %>.
