Why the FeedPulse verified traffic badge is 100% free, forever

Every widget we offer is free forever. We absorb the API costs because our growth model is widget distribution: the small "via FeedPulse" attribution on each widget brings new site owners to us. Install the widget → we earn the impression. That's the entire business model. No paywall, no premium tier, no ads, no email harvesting, no signup wall.

Trust badge for website — what advertisers actually look at

When a brand evaluates whether to sponsor a newsletter or place a media-kit ad, the first question is 'are these traffic numbers real?'. A trust badge for website properties earns the next conversation. The FeedPulse trust badge for website operators is tamper-proof (MutationObserver re-renders if anyone tries to inflate the count via DevTools), shows verified monthly uniques plus a bot-filter percentage, and links to a public audit page that anyone — including the advertiser's procurement team — can inspect. It's the trust badge for website monetisation that actually closes deals, not just decoration.

Verified visitor count widget — anti-fraud architecture

A verified visitor count widget is only as honest as its anti-fraud stack. FeedPulse counts a 'visitor' only after the page-load fires our server-side beacon AND the visitor's IP passes a 3-stage bot filter (known-datacenter ASN blocklist, mouse/scroll signal within 5s, fingerprint hash uniqueness). The verified visitor count widget displays the bot-filter percentage right under the headline number, so advertisers can see exactly what's being discounted. Numbers update daily at 00:00 UTC, and the underlying log is exportable on request for any 7-day window so big sponsors can run their own re-verification.

Honest traffic stamp — the anti-vanity-metric movement

An honest traffic stamp pushes back on the SaaS-vanity-metric era where every Twitter creator claims 'over 100k monthly readers' with no methodology footnote. The FeedPulse honest traffic stamp publishes the methodology inline: 'verified by FeedPulse · bot-filtered · last updated 2026-MM-DD'. Click the stamp, see the audit page. Click the audit page, see the rolling 7-day uniques chart. The honest traffic stamp is opt-in transparency — site owners who don't want to publish numbers can hide the chart and show only the verification mark, which is enough for most advertisers.

Verified traffic badge — frequently asked questions

Does this widget slow down my page?

No. The widget JS is loaded asynchronously (<script async>) and weighs roughly 4-10 KB gzipped depending on the widget. Lighthouse Performance impact is typically < 1 point on mobile.

Is there really no signup or API key required?

Really. The script tag is the entire "install". You don't have an account, we don't track you as a customer, no API key, no email, no credit card.

Can I remove the "via FeedPulse" attribution?

The attribution is what keeps the service free. It's intentionally small and unobtrusive. If you remove it via DOM manipulation, our tamper-proof MutationObserver re-adds it.

Will this widget keep working long-term?

Yes. Our entire mission is to be the reliable, free, hosted replacement for the dozens of free widgets that have shut down in the last 10 years. We're funded by widget distribution itself, so longevity is aligned with our economics.

/ frequently asked

Verified traffic trust badge — questions, answered.

How is the FeedPulse verified-traffic badge different from old Alexa rank?

Alexa rank shut down in 2022. The FeedPulse badge shows actual live visitor counts and a 30-day rolling rank computed from real Pageview events on your domain — not a toolbar-sample estimate. The number on the badge updates every 60 seconds.

Can my visitors click the badge to verify the traffic numbers?

Yes. Clicking the badge opens a public stats page (`/public/your-domain.com`) showing live traffic, 7-day chart, country breakdown, and a verification timestamp. Transparency by design — no inflated vanity metrics.

Is the verified-traffic badge free to embed?

100% free, forever. The badge is part of the FeedPulse free tier — no signup is required just to display it, though claiming your domain (free) gets you the dashboard, alerts, and the public stats page.

How does the badge prevent fake / bot traffic from inflating the count?

Every visit is filtered through FeedPulse's bot-detection heuristic (UA blocklist + burst-rate analysis + IP reputation) before it counts. Suspected bot traffic is tagged but excluded from the badge's displayed number.

Does the verified traffic badge slow down my page?

No. The verified traffic badge loads asynchronously (<script async>) and weighs roughly 4-10 KB gzipped. Lighthouse Performance impact is typically less than 1 point on mobile.

Is there really no signup or API key required?

Yes — no account, no email, no credit card, no API key. Pick your options in the customizer, copy the embed snippet, paste it on your site.

Does the verified traffic badge work on WordPress, Shopify, Wix and Webflow?

Yes. It's a single async <script> tag, so it works on every platform that lets you paste HTML — WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Webflow, Squarespace, Ghost, Blogger, plain HTML.

Can I display the verified traffic badge in my own language?

Yes — the widget UI supports 12 languages out of the box (English, Spanish, French, German, Hindi, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, Dutch). Pick yours from the 'Widget language' dropdown in the customizer.
