The site looked dead. Thirty days of analytics, and the traffic arriving from AI came to two visits — one from ChatGPT, one from DuckDuckGo. Two. From a dashboard like that you would conclude that no AI has ever noticed the site exists.

That conclusion is wrong by about ten thousand.

Over the same thirty days, AI crawlers requested pages from that site 13,306 times, and 10,202 of those requests were for pages with actual writing on them. The two instruments are not contradicting each other. They are answering different questions, and almost everybody is only asking the first one.

The site is davaonline.net, a WordPress site running a plugin that does the opposite of normal analytics. It ignores human visitors completely and records only AI crawlers: which ones arrived, what they fetched, and whether the thing they fetched was a page or just a file.

Here is the whole month.
