Exclude your own visits

1. In Bearing, open your site's Installation page.
2. Under “Your own visits”, click Stop counting this browser. Your site opens in a new tab.
3. Bearing shows “Done”: from now on, your visits from this browser are not counted, however you open your site.

It applies to one browser on one device. Do it again on each one you use: your computer, your phone, another browser. To be counted again, click Count this browser again.

On WordPress with the Bearing plugin, there is nothing to do: logged-in editors and administrators are not counted, on every device.

How it works: your site is opened once with #bearing-ignore at the end of its address. Bearing's script then remembers, in this browser only, not to count it. It is the only thing Bearing ever stores, and only on your own request: nothing is ever stored for your visitors. You can also do it yourself by adding #bearing-ignore to your site's address (and #bearing-count to undo it).
