Exclude admin paths (such as /wp-admin/*) and your office IP ranges under Configuration → Settings, or add data-exclude to the script on preview pages. Excluded hits still answer 202 but are not stored and do not count against your quota.
Three ways to exclude
Under ConfigurationSettings you can keep your own team out of the numbers:
- Exclude paths. Admin and preview areas such as
/wp-admin/*or/preview/*, so editors do not appear as visitors. - Exclude IP ranges. Your office or VPN IP ranges, so internal browsing is not counted.
- Mark pages in code. Add the
data-excludeattribute to the script tag on draft or staging pages a CMS renders.
What “excluded” does
An excluded hit still receives a 202 response, so nothing breaks on the page, but it is not stored and does not count toward your monthly quota. It never reaches any report.
Excluding your own visits is different from bot filtering. Recognized bots are handled automatically — see bots and AI crawlers.
