Like did they google it and clicked it from google link, typed the actual link? or someone shared it to them and they clicked through smth like messanger?

Google Analytics
Someone already mentioned Google Analytics, so also Microsoft Clarity. It’s even free.
Use a heatmap.
Check out AWStats and Webalyzer, included with many cPanel hosting plans. Also there’s a Google SiteKit plugin for WP.
You could use heatmaps to see what users are doing. If you want to try one, [hotjar.com](http://hotjar.com) is easy to set up as it has a plugin for WordPress.
matomo if you’re more privacy oriented. you can even self host it.
Google Analytics, Search Console and HotJar will do everything you mentioned.
Hot jar is my go too. Fantastic tool
Most mentioned here already are good, I would be cautious about what you install on your site some of the plugins that add the functionality will slow down your site…
There is a google analytics plugin, but you don’t need it. It is just bloat.
Just take the code provided during your setup and insert it onto your themes code section.
Here is a step by step guide from a bit ago.

Microsoft Clarity is pretty chill, it has a built in heatmap. Just set that up along with Bing Webmaster Tools.
Check out [https://clicky.com/](https://clicky.com/)
There is a WP plugin and you can even track per user.
Don’t let the old looking clicky website fool you, it’s very powerful. I use to use it before switching to [https://plausible.io/](https://plausible.io/). But if I site needs more detail analysis, clicky is great.
GA4 is eh at best. People only use it because it’s free.
Microsoft clarity, it is free and it records videos of visitors sessions
HotJar and MouseFlow. I’ve used both on multiple projects but only HotJar as recently as 3 months ago. It’s pretty solid. I’d recommend Amplitude as well, but that might be over the top for what you’re trying to achieve.
Try HotJar, Smartlook, or similar tools. [https://www.g2.com/compare/hotjar-by-contentsquare-vs-smartlook](https://www.g2.com/compare/hotjar-by-contentsquare-vs-smartlook)
