goatcounter statistics

in order to have an idea about what sort of readership pages on this site are getting, i use a fly.io-hosted instance of goatcounter. views are tracked with javascript, or a tracking pixel if javascript is disabled. the following statistics are tracked in goatcounter:

  • sessions
    • page visits, unique within an 8 hour window
  • referrer
    • Referer header, campaign parameters (utm_campaign, utm_source, ref)
  • country
  • language
    • supported languages from Accept-Language

if you wish to opt out of statistics tracking on this site, you can disable javascript and images being loaded from stats.mat.services.
