Analytics
Analytics can be found on your dashboard. This gives an estimate of the reads your posts and pages have received, with filtering to help exclude bots and scrapers.
Reads vs Unique visitors
Reads count visits to individual posts and pages, while unique visitors estimates your audience by adding up daily visitor counts. Repeat reads of the same post by the same visitor on the same day are generally counted once.
In-depth analytics
The basic version of the analytics only shows the number of reads and unique visitors in the past week. In order to gain access to in-depth analytics the blog will need to be upgraded.
This provides the following:
- Readers currently on site
- Filter by pages
- Filter by referrers
- Country of reader
- Device of reader
- Browser of reader
A note about Google Analytics
Bear does not (nor will ever) support Google Analytics. They have shown time-and-time-again that they cannot be trusted with user data and are the epitome of non-privacy friendly.
