About

Zag, the Dolomon mascot

What Dolomon means?

It means DOwnLOad MONitor.

What does it do?

Dolomon tracks how many times a link was clicked on.

This means that it can tell you how many times a file was downloaded (it was designed for that purpose). But you can also use it to track visits on a page.

How does it works?

It's quite simple:

To track visits on a page, create a dolo pointing to a small transparent image (Dolomon has a helper to do that) and insert the resulting URL as an image in your page.

Wordpress integration

You can interact with a Dolomon server from Wordpress with the plugin WP-Dolomon.

Create an application in Dolomon to get credentials to use in WP-Dolomon.

What kind of data does Dolomon keep?

Dolomon increments counters at each visit. The counters are just numbers: no IP address is kept.

Dolomon also keeps the Referer header and the date and time of the visit for 3 days.

How can I opt-out Dolomon?

You can't, sorry. But don't worry, Dolomon's statistics are really anonymous.

A cookie is set for 180 seconds for each dolo you visit, to prevent counting consecutive visits from the same person, unless you activated the Do-Not-Track header on your browser.
