Feedjit defined the live traffic feed — the scrolling list of who just arrived and what they were searching for. Its problem is not features, it is continuity: the free tier was retired, support went quiet, and sites still running it are rendering a widget nobody maintains. This is the same idea, rebuilt, free, and actively deployed.
The widget everyone remembers, from a service that stopped answering. Everything below is checked against feedjit.com itself — but pricing and limits move, so confirm anything that matters on their own page before deciding.
| FeedPulse | Feedjit | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free forever, no tier, and the feed is the flagship widget — it is not going away. | The free live feed was withdrawn; what remains is paid and unclear on pricing |
| Signup | None. Paste and it starts. | Account required, and new signups have been unreliable for years |
| What you get | Live feed with country-level location, referrer and page, styled by you. | Live visitor feed with city-level location and referrer/search terms |
| Required link back | No required backlink. | The classic badge links back to feedjit.com |
| Cookies & privacy | Country only, no IP stored, no cookies — nothing identifying in the feed. | Logs IP-derived location and referrer per visitor, shown publicly in the feed |
| Customisation | Your CSS, plus themes. It is HTML, not a locked iframe. | A handful of preset colour schemes; the markup is theirs |
| Where the data lives | Yours, in your dashboard, exportable. | On their side, with no export and no continuity guarantee |
| Removing it | Delete the snippet. Nothing left behind. | Remove the embed; the history goes with it |
Feedjit showed city-level detail and search keywords, which is more granular than we show — and for some people that granularity was the whole appeal. We deliberately stop at country level because showing a visitor's city publicly is the part that gets a widget banned by a privacy review.
Feedjit is effectively a legacy product. If you want the live feed as a thing you can still rely on in 2026 — free, maintained, privacy-safe — that is what this is.

Yes, and it is the reason FeedPulse exists. The live traffic feed is free with no tier, needs no signup, sets no cookies and shows country rather than city, so it survives a privacy review. The one thing it will not do is publish a visitor's city or their search keywords.
Nothing, at any traffic level. There is no paid tier to upgrade to, no session cap and no card on file — the whole product is free, including every other widget and all the SEO tools.
