by: Admin » Published: 2025-06-21

HTFY Publisher comes equipped with a powerful Site Status module that allows real-time and historical tracking of website visitor activity. From individual page visits to country-wise breakdowns, this tool gives you deep insight into how users interact with your static website.

What is the Site Status Panel?

The Site Status panel is a built-in analytics dashboard in HTFY Publisher that provides complete visitor tracking, analysis, and insights. It helps you monitor your site's reach, traffic sources, and visitor behavior — without relying on third-party services like Google Analytics.

Key Features of Site Status Analytics

✅ 1. Live Visitor Count

  • Shows the number of active visitors in the last 1 minute.

  • Live Tracking is disabled by default to save server resources.

  • You can enable it from the settings panel as needed.

⚠️ Recommended only for websites with low to moderate traffic.

✅ 2. Real-Time & Historical Tracking

You can track and filter visitor activity based on:

  • Today’s Visitors

  • All-Time Visitors

  • Country, State, and City

  • Device Type (Mobile, Tablet, Desktop)

  • Browser Type

  • Referrer URL (which link brought the visitor)

  • Target Page URL (which page they landed on)

A full date-wise filtering system allows you to analyze visitors by specific days, helping you understand traffic trends over time.

Traffic Source & Geo Analysis

HTFY Publisher tracks the origin of each visitor:

  • From which referral link (URL) they arrived

  • Which page they visited

  • Their country, state, and city

  • The browser and device used

This information is extremely useful for understanding your audience and optimizing your content strategy accordingly.

How to Enable Live Visitor Count

By default, the live visitor tracking is OFF for performance optimization.

To enable it:

  1. Go to your HTFY Publisher Admin Panel → Status Settings

  2. Toggle the “Live Visitor Count” switch to ON

Once enabled, the dashboard will display the number of active users on your site every 1 minute.

💡 If your site receives high traffic, it is recommended to keep this setting OFF for smoother performance.

Troubleshooting Visitor Tracking

If the system is not recording any visitors, follow these steps:

  1. Check if the following script is added in your site footer:

  2. <script src="/ht-admin/status/analysis-visitor.js" defer></script>
  1.  If the script is missing, manually add it before the closing </body> tag in your website’s footer file.

Once added, the tracking system will begin recording all new visitor activity automatically.
