# See who visits your site

Every site on Fylo.Host is measured automatically. There is no tracking snippet to add and no cookie banner needed for it. Open **Analytics** in the dashboard and pick a site.

HTML version: https://fylo.host/docs/analytics · All docs: https://fylo.host/docs/

## What you see

| Metric | Meaning |
|---|---|
| **Views** | Pages opened by real browsers. Bots and crawlers that don't run the page are not counted. |
| **Unique visitors** | Views from a browser that had not opened that page before on that day. |
| **Bounce rate** | Visits that saw one page and left within 10 seconds. |
| **Avg. time on page** | How long the page was actually visible in the tab, in seconds. |
| **Live** | Views in the last 5 minutes. |
| **Top pages** | Views per path, with each page's own time-on-page and bounce. |
| **Referrers** | Sites that sent visitors. Direct visits (typed address, apps, bookmarks) are not listed. |
| **Countries** and **Devices** | Where visitors are and whether they are on mobile, tablet or desktop. |

The **My sites** tab shows a view count on each card; **Analytics** has the detail.

## Time ranges

Today, Yesterday, 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, or a custom range. Days run on India Standard Time. The free plan covers Today, Yesterday and the last 7 days; paid plans have every range. Data is kept for about 90 days.

## How it is counted

- When a page is served, Fylo adds a tiny script that reports the view once the page is actually shown, and the time spent when the visitor leaves. That is why bots don't inflate your numbers.
- Numbers are **estimates**: at high traffic the underlying store samples events, so treat them as accurate to a few percent, not to the single view.
- Nothing identifies a person. No IP address or visitor id is stored with a view. To tell a repeat view from a new one, a marker is kept in the visitor's own browser storage on your site; it is never sent as an identifier. See the [Privacy Policy](https://fylo.host/privacy).
- Views on a [custom domain](https://fylo.host/docs/domains) and on the Fylo subdomain count towards the same site.

## Troubleshooting

- **No views yet** — open the site yourself in a normal (not private) window and wait a minute. Views from the same browser on the same day count once as unique.
- **Fewer views than another tool** — ad blockers and privacy browsers block most analytics, including this beacon on some setups, and bot traffic is excluded here.
- **A page is missing** — only `.html` pages are counted, not images or downloads.

## From an AI app

With the [MCP server](https://fylo.host/docs/api#mcp-analytics) connected, ask "how is example.com doing this week?" and the app reads the same numbers.
