What counts as a view?

At a glance

The community members discuss whether multiple views from the same IP address within a week would count as valid views on a website. Some community members suggest that while these views would count, there are spam protection and bot detection features like Cloudflare that can help mitigate abuse. However, there is no explicitly marked answer in the comments.

If someone from a particular IP address opens a link on my site and reopens it sever time during the same week, do all those views count? So if someone uses an automation bot that opens and closes just to be an awful person would all those count as views?

yes, though there is spam protection by cloudflare
if they are evil they can generate visits as well, just as easily as page views
and there is also activated bots protection
only specific approved bots are allowed, also a cloudflare feature
