Easy Setup
Copy your meta tag from the dashboard, add it to your site’s <head>, then verify with Check.
Tracking methods compared
| Method | What it does | Needs JS | Plan note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meta tag | Identifies the site for NMOS (tid). Does not block bots. | No | All plans |
| tracking.js | Cookieless; logs crawler visits with richer signals. | Yes | All plans |
| Beacon CSS | Cookieless no-JS fallback ping for basic crawl hits. | No | All plans |
| WordPress plugin | Injects meta/script from WP admin. | Optional | Integrations panel: Pro+ |
| GTM | Deploys the snippet via Tag Manager. | Yes | Integrations panel: Pro+ |
| Cloudflare Worker | Edge-side capture / beacon routes. | No* | Integrations panel: Pro+ |
*Worker can work without page JS. All methods are cookieless (no tracking cookies). Tracking measures visits; it does not block crawlers by itself.
