So, this may seem like a dumb question, but how are place visits counted?
Is it by every new player that visits, or say, am I adding up all the visits by playing my own game?
I’m pretty sure its by every new player that visits but I just want some clarification.
Thanks!
Am guessing how many people join the game or how many people played the game am not really should or based off of how many people are in a server.
just like YouTube, it doesn’t save whoever played the game already, it just accumulate and is only based from the amount of time a client has entered your game.
Which is also the reason why some games easily reach 100M+ Visits, there are some game with abusive lifespans that requires atleast 150 hours to complete it.
Simple: Visits are counted for every player that play the game. 
So, it could just be me accumulating all those visits?
I guess, but remember don’t abuse with that :v
That stinks, I was thinking 200+ people had played my game and to know it was me all along 
Basically if you stay in the game for an hour it counts as one visit?
I wasn’t very precise about that, but no, only count by entering the game, i’m not sure if errors are included though :
The 100M+ example was a slightly off-topic way of saying that total visits doesn’t really matter as they’re never accurate (most people that love the game has probably joined it over 5 times), if the OP want a more precise number of “unique users”, you can do it either with a “Welcome” badge reward or it’s listed in the Developer stats in the game.
Visits are calculated through the issuance of tickets per visitor with an imposed cooldown. Visitors are capable of sending multiple tickets to the game and new ones are also given when they teleport between places. The visits count is not for unique visitors, you can have players revisiting your place and adding to that count.
I am not sure about the validity of the ticket statement I made, however I am certain that the visit count is not unique visitors, so you can easily have 200 visits but not 200 unique visitors.
I sometimes see a game with 1k+ players. I refresh the page and it only has 200 visits. How is that possible?
Visits are done by every unique player that joins the game, when an player joins and roblox server gets an update and updates the visit count. Here Is an Image of what I am talking about:
Besides that’s what I think it’s happening, I could be wrong.
Every visit is a visit. But I don’t think your own visit counts
Every time someone joins your game, including yourself, the visit counter goes up. There’s no required time for them to stay in the game or anything.
Ok, so I’m getting a lot of different messages. Some say yes (it counts each new visitor) or no (it counts whomever joins whether or not they’ve joined before). So, which one?
It does
30chars or 30cars
Think of it this way, adopt me has more than 2 billion visits, and there isn’t even 1 billion players on roblox, which means that every visit counts. So yes, each visit counts
My understanding from years back was that every unique visit every day counts. So if you played every day of the year multiple times a day, you would have given 365 visits.
I used to think that too. I don’t know if they changed it or we were all just wrong.
No, a visit does not count each new visitor. If it really did, games like Jailbreak couldn’t have more than 3 billion visits.
