I had 212 visitors in the last month and as always most are crawlers. This page would be rather interesting if it indicated who visited my page by username or ID, otherwise it’s useless in my opinion.

Actually 189, while 3179 are in fact VISITS from the same "visitor" (red circle), which should be counted in the "search engines" section (orange circle) instead.
If this is not a bot, the large number of visits is very strange.

I am no longer a paying member, so I can't see any details. But 2802 "visitors" is totally absurd.

| @ProZ staff: the nth bug? | Jan 7 |
There are 3 different visitors counters for ProZ profile pages, and they all show different numbers.
Which one is correct?
Here's what's currently on my page:
Visitors Tab (where visits are displayed instead of actual visitors): 3622 (191 visitors)
Profile page footer: 3584 visits from 185 visitors
New enhanced analytics: 3871 visits from 290 visitors

...but 113 of those are from the same "visitor" from New York. I saw other comments who had the same issue - is that a bot?

Most of them bots, of course.

The maximum was 1500-2000

Visitors or visits? What's displayed ON the Visitors tab are actually visits.
At the bottom of your profile page it reads "Dieses Profil hat im letzten Monat 1537 Besuche erhalten
(von insgesamt 261 Besuchern) " (1537 visits from 261 visitors in total)
Note the discrepancy between the figures... What a mess this platform is!

I voted N/A for no actual idea. I had vaguely realised you could see the number of people looking at your profile but I've never looked for that information. It seems that at least some are bots, and anyway, if they're just looking and not contacting me, it's not important information is it?

If lots of actual people were looking but nobody was contacting me for work, and I was actually hoping to be contacted for work, then it might be useful to know in that probably would mean my profile would need working on or I'd need to add more source languages or halve my rate to have people contacting me. But none of that applies.
It's the same with LinkedIn. I often get messages to say that X number of people have looked at my profile. Apparently I can even see who they are if I get a paid subscription. But they've looked, and moved on without contacting me, so they weren't all that interested in what they saw, so what's the point? I have had several clients contact me, and one has become my favourite agency, so it's not that my profile is rubbish. I'm just not the right person for those who don't contact me. ▲ Collapse

| Regarding the info about where visitors came from... | Jan 8 |
It would be useful to know which keywords visitors coming from search engines used. This is the most valuable info here.
Only the link to the search engine is displayed instead.
| | | |
More relevant is how much work I've been offered in two months of paid membership.
Answer: 20 euros and 10 dollars.

I know that at the bottom of my page there are visits and visitors.
