Understand page views.
From the right code to your first verified page view: set up BlogTraffic for your website here. No tracking cookies and no API keys in your embed code.
- 01 Generate code
- 02 Add it to your blog
- 03 Check the count
STEP 01
Your embed code
Find your counter ID in the existing tracking code after uid= in your dashboard.
STEP 02
Add it to your blog once
Add the code to an HTML area within your blog’s page content, for example in the footer before </body>.
Using WordPress? Use the BlogTraffic plugin or a custom HTML area in the footer or sidebar, provided your installation supports the selected code.
Use only one method per page view. The fallback in the JavaScript code loads only when JavaScript is disabled. Adding a separate image pixel would count twice.
STEP 03
Check that page views are counted
- Save and publish the change on your blog.
- Note the current page-view count in your dashboard, then open the blog page once in another browser window.
- Reload your dashboard and compare the counter value and selected page identifier.
Page views are not unique people. Repeat page views may be counted, and concurrent visitors may also change the counter.
Go to dashboard →GOOD TO KNOW
No page views showing yet?
Check the counter ID and installation
Compare the ID with your dashboard. Check the HTML of your published blog page to ensure the complete code was included. Some editors remove scripts; try the image-pixel method instead.
Identify blocked requests
Browser extensions, your blog’s security settings or pending consent may prevent counting. Check network requests when loading your own blog page. A loaded image alone does not confirm a stored page view.
Open the right statistics
Check that you are signed into the correct account and viewing the right page identifier and today’s period. This guide does not send test page views to your counter.
