Who Is Reading Your Pricing Page Right Now
Updated
TL;DR
To see who is on your pricing page right now, open your site with whoisbrowsing installed: the side panel lists a live count per page, and each person on /pricing appears as a cursor on the real page with their source, approximate city, device and time on site. You see people arriving and reading, not a name or an email.
Why the pricing page deserves a live look
The pricing page is where interest turns into a decision. Most of the time you only learn what happened later, in a funnel report. Live, you can notice things a report flattens:
- how long someone stays before moving;
- whether a cursor goes to the plan table, the FAQ or the cheapest plan;
- whether a visitor on a phone ever scrolls to the part of the page you care about;
- whether people reach the page from a search result, an AI assistant, a comparison article or a direct visit.
What the live view shows for each visitor
| Detail | Example | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Page | /pricing |
Query strings never leave the browser; URL tokens in a path are sent as :id |
| Source | Google, Bing, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot, Claude, another site's link, or direct | Labelled from where the visit came from |
| Approximate city | near Austin, TX | Never an identity; see how the city is worked out |
| Device | desktop, tablet or phone | Plus browser and operating system |
| Time on site | 2 min | Plus pages this visit |
The side panel puts the busiest page first and keeps one line per person, so you can count the people on /pricing at a glance.
What this does not tell you
It does not tell you who the visitor is. There is no name, email, company or account match, and we do not try to produce one. A visitor who is also a logged-in customer is still just a cursor and a city to you. If you want to know who they are, your own product or CRM is the right place.
It also does not keep history. Nothing about your visitors is stored on our servers, so you cannot ask "how many people read pricing last week". For that, use your analytics tool.
Questions worth asking while you watch
A live count is only useful if you ask something of it. Three questions work well on a pricing page:
- Do visitors from different sources behave differently? A visitor from a comparison article may go straight to the plan table, while a direct visitor may read the FAQ first.
- Does the page work on a phone? Watch where the see-through band rests. If it never moves past the first plan, the table may be hard to scroll.
- How long before someone leaves? Time on site is shown per person, so a pattern of very short visits tells you the page did not match what they expected when they clicked.
Write down what you notice, change one thing, and watch again. That is the whole loop.

Add it to the site-wide layout so the pricing page is covered. Platform guides are listed in install, and a coding agent can do it for you (install with an AI agent). Then open your site in a private window to confirm you appear as a visitor. Your own regular browser is never counted.
If you have separate staging and production sites, give each its own site entry: localhost and production never mix.
Using the arrival alert
Turn on the dashboard's browser notification and it fires when someone new arrives, naming the landing page. Alerts come from the open dashboard tab, which holds the live connection, so keep that tab open to get them. If a notification says someone landed on pricing from ChatGPT, you can open the live view while they are still there. This is useful during a launch (launch day) or after you publish a comparison page.
When whoisbrowsing is NOT the right tool
If you want to run pricing experiments, measure scroll depth across thousands of visits, or replay sessions, use a testing or replay product. whoisbrowsing is for watching the present, with nothing stored.
