Visitor Traffic Real-Time Statistics for WordPress

Unlock powerful insights into your website traffic with Visitor Traffic Real-Time Statistics, the WordPress plugin for tracking visitors, page views, countries, browsers and more — all in one intuitive dashboard.

With real-time data and easy-to-use shortcodes, you’ll get a complete picture of your site’s performance without the complexity. Whether you’re a blogger, business owner, or marketer, this plugin gives you the tools to understand your audience better and make smarter decisions.

Why Choose Visitor Traffic Real-Time Statistics?

  • Real-Time Visitor Tracking: See how many people are on your site right now and how your traffic changes through the day.
  • User-Friendly Dashboard: All your key insights are displayed on a single, easy-to-navigate dashboard.
  • Comprehensive Analytics: Track visitors by country, browser, referrer, page and hour of the day.
  • Shortcode Integration: Display visitor stats anywhere on your site with simple shortcodes.
  • SEO Insights: See which search engines send visitors, the pages they land on, and what visitors search for on your site.
  • Accurate Numbers: Bots and crawlers are filtered out, and time on site only counts while the visitor is actually reading.

Available Shortcodes (Simple & Flexible)

Add these shortcodes to any post, page, or widget to showcase your traffic stats:

The opening of the plugin's own description. The full text, installation notes and changelog are on its WordPress.org page.

Shortcodes for summary statistics

You can use the following shortcodes:

*[ahc_stats_widget title=”” fontsize=”16″ fonttype=”” display_today_visitors=true display_today_pageviwes=true display_total_visitors=true display_total_pageviwes=true] the same box with custom options

*[ahc_today_visitors] shows today’s visitors

*[ahc_today_visits] shows today’s page views

Is it GDPR compliant?

All data is stored locally in your WordPress database, so you don’t need a data processing agreement with an external company.

Does this plugin support Multisite?

The plugin doesn’t officially support Multisite yet, but it should work without issues. Full Multisite support is planned for a future release.

How do I stop Safari on Mac from unzipping downloaded .zip files?

Safari unzips downloaded .zip files automatically, but WordPress needs the plugin as a .zip file. To turn this off:

  • Open Safari.
  • Open Settings (Preferences).
  • On the General tab, uncheck “Open ‘safe’ files after downloading”.

Latest changelog entry

8.18

  • Stronger bot filtering: crawlers and automated browsers that run JavaScript but do not call themselves “bot” (GoogleOther, Google-InspectionTool, Chrome-Lighthouse, HeadlessChrome, Puppeteer/Playwright/Selenium, uptime monitors, HTTP libraries, AI crawlers…) are no longer counted as visitors. The real request User-Agent is checked as well as the one reported by the page, and automated browsers (navigator.webdriver) are ignored. Real visitors on CUBOT phones are counted again.

Where this page's numbers come from

Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin.
