tmcom Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 I have seen the guest and member chart, but cannot find visitor counts? I also know that monthly costs go up with a certain number of visitors, so have to ask, what is Envisions definition of a visitor, or where do they come from?

Meddysong Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 A visitor is anyone accessing your site. That includes your admins, your members, bots, people who aren't logged in... A guest is a visitor who isn't logged into an account. We're members in this community but if we logged out, we'd be guests, just as we are when we browse any other community for which we don't have an account. tmcom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavel Chernitsky Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Members = people who are logged in. Guest = members who aren't logged in OR don't have an account. Visitors = members+guests. Also, when you say "guest and member chart" are you talking about what is found in 'ACP->Statistics->Users->Online Users'? Because if you are, do note that this is NOT an actual traffic chart and if you sum up the numbers you WILL NOT get the number of visitors your site has, as explained here.

If IPS ever increases your plan on Cloud, you can request to move down to save $$. tmcom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that is the chart, and l know that there is a disparagingly between that and reality, (Amazon links showed much high numbers). 1 hour ago, Joel R said: If IPS ever increases your plan on Cloud, you can request to move down to save $$. So they can restrict traffic of non members, good to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll just move you down to lower plan, until you get more members and they will bump you up again. This is useful if you have a temporary boost of members. tmcom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
