About software and different designs
Do Not Track
Yes, we do honor the Do Not Track (DNT) setting from browsers which support this.
Do not track is a setting from your browser which, after you enable it, it will tell the sites that you visit that you do not want to be tracked. Unfortunately, it is not very well supported by browsers as of yet but if we receive this header setting from your browser, we are honoring it!
What if you want to track everyone and skip the DNT setting? It is possible to do that as well if you are a website owner.
To ignore the DNT and to also track those visitors, simply add data-ignore-dnt="true"
like in the following example:
<script async src="https://metrika360.net/en/pixel/12345678910111213" data-ignore-dnt="true"></script>
How to add your website
The setup process is very simple and intuitive, here is how to do it.
- Make sure you have an account, you are logged in and that your plan is active.
- Go to the websites page.
-
Click the
Add Website
button and a simple form will appear. -
Fill in the
Name
of your website, a simple identifier for you. It does not matter to us what you write in this box. -
Select the protocol that your website uses,
http
orhttps
. We recommend usinghttps
and making sure your website has an SSL Certificate. -
Fill in the
Website
field with your website domain, subdomain or domain path. Ex: domain.com, subdomain.domain.com, domain.com/path.
How to install the tracking script
The installation process for our script is straight forward as it only requires you to place a simple JavaScript code in your website.
Afterwards, with this code, all your website visitors will load the script in the background from your website and give us all the needed details to do our magic and give you the analytics that you need.
- Make sure you are logged in to your account.
- Go to your websites list that you added.
-
Click on the
Tracking code
button and a simple modal will appear. -
Click on the
Copy USER MAP
button orselect and copy
the code from the textbox area. -
Place this code in the header of your website, right before the end of the
html tag.
-
Click on the
Verify installation
tab and then click the button. If you see an alert box saying that the USER MAP is installed, then you finished the installation process.
