Advertising page, contact form, visitor count and this blog

Advertising page, contact form, visitor count and this blog

The site gets a few doors to the outside: a page for patrons and advertising partners, a contact form, an honest visitor count. And the blog you are reading right now.

  • New: Advertising page with banner formats, numbers and request form
  • New: Contact page with form, the message goes straight to the inbox by email
  • New: Visitor count without cookies, once a day per visitor
  • New: Blog with topics, archive and search
  • New: Health endpoint for monitoring camera, feeder and database
  • Changed: New broadcast images for night, pause and offline in the style of the new logo
  • Changed: Kick as an icon in the footer, the old transparency page is gone
  • Changed: English site peckandclick.com without German leftovers, emails in the buyer's language

After the big step yesterday, a few smaller ones that still add up to a lot.

Advertising

Under "Advertise" it now says what companies and patrons get for feed days: name, message or banner next to the feed button, a place in the Hall of Fame, passes to give away. Plus the banner formats to look at, a request form and a few numbers about the site.

Counting visitors without tracking

The advertising page shows how many people visit the site. Every visitor is counted once a day, as a plain number. There are no profiles, no cookies for it and nothing that recognises a visitor again. Bots and I myself do not count. The number grows until 30 days are complete, then it always shows the last 30 days.

Contact

Under "Contact" there is a form. The message goes straight to the inbox by email and is not stored anywhere. A small bot check in front of it, nothing more.

The blog

And then this blog. Here I write down what changes on the site, what I build on the camera and the feeder, and what is new with the six hens. Changes come with a date and a list of what is new, changed or fixed. Tech posts carry their parts as small chips.
