Documentation
Websites Traffic Generator Boost your website’s visibility with realistic visits from different countries and devices. This Actor mimics natural browsing behavior using smart routing, customizable traffic patterns, and device diversity - no coding required. ## Overview Search engines reward websites that show signs of real user activity. This Actor helps simulate that activity with visits that scroll, hover, and (when time allows) click through to other pages on the same site. Each visit reflects real-world diversity in device type, screen resolution, operating system, and browser-based on market share data from StatCounter for the selected country. --- ## 🛠️ How to Use It This Actor lets you customize traffic behavior, duration, and device mix - all through simple input fields. No technical setup required. --- ### 🔹 1.1 Start URLs Add the full list of webpages you want to boost-not just the homepage or domain. Include product pages, blog posts, landing pages, or any URL you want search engines to notice. The Actor will simulate steady, organic visits to each one. ### 🔹 1.2 Country Choose the country you want the visits to appear from. - Datacenter proxies (DCP) are a cheaper option, but they don’t guarantee accurate geolocation. - For better results, select a specific country or Worldwide (WW) to use residential proxies, which offer more realistic IP targeting. ### 🔹 Run duration This sets how long the Actor will run. The actual visit time will be randomly selected from one of these ranges: 5-10, 10-15, 15-20, ... 90-105, 105-120 minutes. If you want to run longer than 60 minutes, scroll to the bottom of the input panel and increase Run options > Timeout to more than 3600 seconds (default). There’s also a built-in kill switch inside the Actor (no setup required). It activates automatically a few minutes after the selected run duration to ensure safe shutdown and prevent overrun. --- ### ⚙️ Advanced Options | 🔹 Input Field | 💬 Description | |----------------|----------------| | Max Concurrency | Set how many visits should run at the same time. The default is 2, but you can go as low as 2 or as high as 12. Higher values generate more traffic. | | Create traffic spike | If enabled, the Actor will ramp up traffic gradually, peak in the middle, and taper off toward the end-mimicking how real traffic behaves during trending moments. | | Minimum & Maximum single visit duration | These two fields work together to define how long each simulated visit will last. The Actor will randomly choose a duration between the minimum and maximum values for every visit.
• Shorter visits (e.g. 30–60 seconds) will result in more unique visits during the run time.
• Longer visits (e.g. 180 seconds) will simulate deeper engagement, with each visitor spending more time and clicking through multiple pages on the same site.
Default values are 30 seconds minimum and 75 seconds maximum, but feel free to adjust them to match your goals. | | Randomly select only one URL from the same domain | If enabled, the Actor will randomly pick just one URL per domain. Useful if you’ve added multiple pages from the same site and want to avoid overloading it. | | Mobile vs Desktop | Choose what percentage of visits should come from mobile devices. The rest will be desktop. Default is 90% mobile, which reflects modern traffic trends. Feel free to experiment-these settings are safe to test! | --- ### 🗺️ Visits from Other Countries You can define up to five separate country-based traffic streams. Each stream has its own Start URLs and Country selection. This is perfect if you're working with multiple websites or want to simulate global traffic. For example: - **2.1 Start URLs for second country** - Add pages you want visited from a second region. - **2.2 Country** - Choose the country for those visits. - Repeat for third, fourth, and fifth countries as needed. This setup gives you full control over how traffic is distributed across regions and websites. --- ## 💡 Tips for Better Results - Lower cost per visit The Actor is most efficient when used for many URLs at once. Whether you're boosting multiple websites or several pages from the same site, the computing cost per visit goes down as the number of visits goes up. - Simulate UTM Campaigns from private apps This Actor doesn’t send any traceable source info with visits, which makes it perfect for simulating traffic from apps like WhatsApp or Viber. These platforms protect user privacy and don’t pass tracking data-just like this Actor. So if you're testing UTM campaigns from private messaging apps, this tool behaves just like real users would. --- ## 🤖 Supporting Actor: WTG Random Scheduler If you want to automate traffic scheduling across multiple days and time windows, use the WTG Random Scheduler — a no-code companion Actor designed to work with Websites Traffic Generator. Instead of manually launching runs, this Actor creates randomized schedules for you. It passes all required inputs directly to Websites Traffic Generator, so you don’t need to fill anything in there. > ✅ There are five identical versions of the scheduler to help you save different configurations and reuse them easily: > > - WTG Random Scheduler 1 > - WTG Random Scheduler 2 > - WTG Random Scheduler 3 > - WTG Random Scheduler 4 > - WTG Random Scheduler 5 Each version can store a unique set of inputs — such as different countries, time ranges, or traffic styles — making it easy to launch multiple campaigns without reconfiguring settings. --- ## 🔗 Related Actors If you're looking to simulate social media-driven traffic or extend visibility after a viral moment, check out these complementary tools: - Web Traffic Spike Simulator X Simulates realistic traffic spikes triggered by viral posts on X (Twitter). - Organic Visit Simulator X Follows up viral spikes with steady, organic traffic patterns that search engines recognize. These Actors work beautifully together to create momentum, sustain visibility, and test how your site responds to different traffic scenarios.
