A feed view is counted each time your Juicer feed loads on a web page. This guide explains how feed views are counted, how they differ from website page views, and what happens when you reach your monthly limit.
What is a feed view?
A feed view is counted each time your Juicer feed loads on a web page. When a visitor opens a page that contains your embedded Juicer feed, that counts as one feed view.
Feed views vs. website page views
Feed views and website page views (as shown in Google Analytics) are different metrics:
Website page views count every page a visitor loads on your site, whether or not it contains a Juicer feed.
Feed views count only the pages where your Juicer feed actually loads.
If your Juicer feed is embedded on multiple pages, a single visitor browsing your site can generate several feed views — one for each page that contains the feed. This is why your feed view count can be higher than you might expect based on your website traffic alone.
What counts as a feed view
Initial page load — each time a page with your feed loads, one view is counted.
Multiple pages — if your feed is on 5 pages and a visitor views all 5, that's 5 feed views.
What does not count as a feed view
Clicking Load more to see additional posts does not count as an additional view.
Clicking on individual posts does not count as a view.
What happens when you exceed your limit?
On the premium plans, when you reach your monthly view limit, your feed stops updating — no new posts will be fetched from your social media sources. Existing posts remain visible to your website visitors, but the feed will not sync new content until your next billing period begins or you purchase additional views.
A "View Limit Reached" warning appears on your Juicer dashboard. This warning is not visible to your website visitors.
On the Free plan, the feed is hidden entirely when the view limit is reached.
Your view limit resets monthly — on paid plans based on your subscription start date, on the Free plan based on your account creation date. It does not reset on the 1st of the calendar month.
You can see the view limits for each plan on the Pricing page.
How to get more views
Views add-on: purchase additional views from your Billing Settings page. See Juicer add-ons: extra views, feeds, and sources for the full breakdown of view, feed, source, and Autoscroll add-ons.
Upgrade your plan: move to a higher plan with a larger view allowance from the Plans page.
Where to check your current usage
You can see your current feed view usage on your Juicer dashboard. For a more detailed breakdown, visit the Analytics page.
If your view count looks higher than expected, or if the feed stops updating before you think it should, send us the feed URL, the account email, and a screenshot of the dashboard usage indicator through contact us.
