Recommendations

Is there a limit for the carousels on my plan?

No, there is no limit to the number of carousels to use on any plan. You can create and activate as many carousels as you desire.

There is no need to create a new carousel in order to use a different Logic, change it directly under the desired carousel.

Why have my Recommendations impressions spiked? Bots and Recommendations

Search engine bots, like Google's, can load recommendations carousels, significantly affecting CTR and CR metrics. To address this, Doofinder has improved metric accuracy by automatically filtering out bot traffic from these metrics, ensuring they reflect only real user behavior.

The following Google and Meta IPs are now filtered:

@google_ip_ranges

  • https://developers.google.com/search/apis/ipranges/googlebot.json
  • https://developers.google.com/search/apis/ipranges/special-crawlers.json
  • https://developers.google.com/search/apis/ipranges/user-triggered-fetchers.json
  • https://developers.google.com/search/apis/ipranges/user-triggered-fetchers-google.json

@facebook_ip_ranges

  • https://www.facebook.com/peering/geofeed

This filter applies to statistics only, meaning usage impressions remain unchanged. If you want to block these IPs entirely so they don’t count toward your usage, read How to Block IPs. Consider whether to block these IPs, as it may affect your SEO.

How can I see my Recommendations Stats?

The Recommendations Stats in Doofinder show how recommendation widgets perform in terms of visibility, user engagement, and sales impact. You can see how often carousels are displayed, how users interact with them through clicks and CTR, and what revenue or orders result from those interactions by accessing the Admin Panel > Recommendations > Stats.

See here the Recommendations Stats documentation.
