FeedPulse is a free live traffic widget for any website. Paste one line of HTML and your page shows a real-time feed of the visitors arriving on it — country flag, city, browser, the page they landed on — updating live as they browse. There is no account to create, no email to hand over, no credit card, no trial and no paid tier above it. The same snippet also powers a live visitor counter, a flag counter and sixteen other embeddable widgets, and the dashboard behind it includes twelve free SEO tools. Everything described on this page is free forever.
The live traffic widget is a single script tag. Copy it, paste it before the closing body tag of your site, and the feed starts filling with real visitors within seconds — no build step, no plugin, no DNS change and no tag manager required. It runs on WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Webflow, Squarespace, Ghost, Blogger, Framer, Notion-backed sites and plain hand-written HTML, because a script tag is the lowest common denominator of the entire web. Each entry in the feed shows where a visitor came from and what they are reading, so you can watch a Reddit thread or a newsletter send land in real time instead of refreshing an analytics dashboard twenty minutes later. The widget is styled to inherit your page: you choose a theme, the corner it docks to, how many rows it shows and whether it collapses on mobile. One script tag, about 4 KB — no framework, no jQuery, no cookies. Real-time visitor rows with country flag, city, browser and landing page. Themes, positions, row counts and mobile behaviour are all configurable. Works on every CMS and on static HTML, including GitHub Pages.
If you want the number rather than the stream, the same install gives you a free live visitor counter: a small glowing badge showing how many people are reading right now, plus today's and all-time totals. It is the modern replacement for the hit counters that used to sit at the bottom of every homepage, and it is the fastest way to show social proof on a page that is actually busy. Counts come from real page views, not sampled estimates, and the badge renders server-side as an image or client-side as HTML depending on which snippet you choose — so it works even inside a README, a Notion embed or an email-safe template where scripts are stripped. Live online-now number, plus daily and all-time totals. Flag counter variant that tallies visits by country. Image badge version for READMEs and places that block JavaScript. No registration — your site is identified by its own domain.
Beyond traffic, FeedPulse ships eighteen free embeddable widgets for any website, all installed the same way and all free with no quotas: live weather, crypto ticker, stock ticker, countdown timer, visitor globe, click heatmap, comments, AI site chat, Discord member count, YouTube and Twitch live status, GitHub stars, npm downloads, page-speed badge and more. They share one runtime, so adding a second widget costs almost nothing in page weight, and none of them set cookies or track individuals across sites. If you are replacing a paid widget service, you can usually delete three or four scripts and keep one. Eighteen widgets, one shared runtime and one install pattern. No cookies, no cross-site identifiers, nothing to disclose in a banner. Each widget has its own themes so it can match your design. Free forever with no view limits, no watermark and no upsell.
The dashboard includes twelve free SEO tools you can run on any domain without creating an account: Domain Authority checker, Domain Rating checker, SERP position checker, backlinks checker, Google index checker, trust score, domain age, page speed, meta tag generator, schema markup generator, website worth estimator and a traffic estimator. Every tool names the upstream data source it uses and says when a number is an estimate rather than a measurement, because an SEO tool that hides its provenance is just a number generator. Where a provider is unavailable, the tool says so instead of showing a blank. DA, DR, SERP position, backlinks, index status and trust score. Meta tag and schema markup generators for on-page work. Every result labels its data source and flags estimates. No signup, no credit card, no daily email in exchange for a number.
FeedPulse exists because the classic live traffic widgets either shut down, moved behind a paywall or still require an account for a feature that should be a script tag. Here is the honest comparison, including what FeedPulse deliberately does not do. FeedPulse: Yes, free, Feedjit: Discontinued, Whos.amung.us: Limited, StatCounter: Paid plans (Live visitor feed). FeedPulse: Yes, free, Feedjit: Discontinued, Whos.amung.us: Yes, StatCounter: Yes (Live visitor counter). FeedPulse: No, Feedjit: Yes, Whos.amung.us: Yes, StatCounter: Yes (Account required). FeedPulse: None, Feedjit: Yes, Whos.amung.us: Yes, StatCounter: Yes (Cookies set). FeedPulse: 18, Feedjit: None, Whos.amung.us: None, StatCounter: None (Other embeddable widgets). FeedPulse: 12, Feedjit: None, Whos.amung.us: None, StatCounter: None (Free SEO tools included). FeedPulse: No, by design, Feedjit: No, Whos.amung.us: No, StatCounter: Yes (Session recording). FeedPulse: Free forever, Feedjit: n/a, Whos.amung.us: Freemium, StatCounter: From paid tiers (Price). Competitor capabilities reflect their public product and pricing pages as of October 2026. FeedPulse does not offer session replay, funnels or individual-user profiles, and is not trying to: the aggregate picture is the product.
FeedPulse stores an aggregate picture of traffic — country, coarse city, browser family, referrer and the page requested. It does not set cookies, does not build a cross-site identifier, does not record sessions and does not sell data, which is why most sites can run it without adding anything to a consent banner. You remain responsible for your own compliance, but there is far less to disclose when there is nothing persistent on the visitor's device.
