Why Redis for Visitor Counting

Redis is fast, simple, and reliable for increment counters and unique visitor sets. It is perfect for lightweight product analytics.

Core Data Model

  • visit:total_hits as an incrementing key
  • visit:unique_ips as a set with hashed IP values
  • API endpoints for track-visit and visit-stats

Common Troubleshooting

If stats stay at zero, check REDIS_URL in your runtime environment and restart PM2 with --update-env.

If unique IPs look wrong, verify Nginx forwards real client IP headers.
