We have been getting more than a few inquiries from writers lately on their news’ TS$ value. This happens when they don’t find their news faring anywhere in the TS dollars program, despite the news having registered more than the required reads on the portal. The answer to their confusion is Google Analytics.

Only the human visits--the reads stripped of visits by robots, crawlers, and other programmed software--are considered for the TS$ program, and Google Analytics is the software that filters all the unwanted visits and gives us just what we reward your news for: human visits.

It would be useless for you to inquire about the discrepant figures every day, as these traffic-related inquiries will not be entertained on a daily basis anymore.

But anyone wishing to have a look at the Google Analytics numbers of the previous month can do so on her payday. Google Analytics doesn’t lie to us, and it won’t lie to you too.

Cheers,
