תיאור
Track and analyze your website visitors with detailed geolocation data, understand where your traffic comes from, and control access by country.
Key Features:
- Country-Based Access Control – Block or allow visitors from specific countries
- Traffic Source Tracking – See how visitors find your site (search engines, social media, referrals, direct)
- Geolocation Data – Country, region, city, coordinates, and timezone
- Search Terms Capture – Track search terms from Google, Bing, Yahoo, and more
- Privacy Compliant – Automatic data cleanup after 7 days
- User-Friendly Dashboard – Clean interface with visual statistics
- SEO Friendly – Option to allow search engine bots regardless of country restrictions
Performance Note:
By default, the plugin uses asynchronous tracking for fast page loads. Geolocation data is fetched in the background. You can enable synchronous mode in settings if you need immediate access control on first visits (may add 1-2 seconds for new visitors).
