How we define a Unique visitor
Onyx plans differ from standard shared hosting in a few key ways.
One of the most important factors is how Onyx differs when it comes to resource allocation.
Most web hosts will use resource allocation as the primary method of both pricing and differentiating their services, however, Onyx doesn't use traditional resource allocation methods. Rather, your available resources will scale to match the site's traffic and current use. This is where unique visitor counts come in.
We differentiate our onyx plans based on the number of unique visitors the site receives. We will determine the number of unique visitors as one unique IP/User-Agent combination per day.
A note regarding comparisons
Just a quick note to bear in mind that our statistics may not match up to the statistics provided by external tools such as Google Analytics. Different statistics tools use different ways of counting visits (e.g. Google Analytics excludes bots), so they're not directly comparable.
