Exclude internal traffic from your analytics

By default, Histat Analytics tracks every visitor to your website. You might not want your office traffic to be counted. Or when you're working on your site, you might not want to record your own visits and page views

Exclude visits by hostname

If you prefer to only record traffic from specific hostnames (and block all the other traffic), you can do so in your site settings:

  • Visit the site settings area for the dashboard in question
  • Choose Hostnames in the Shields entry in the left-hand menu
  • Then click on the Add Hostname button to add a new hostname to your allow list
