- Each day's top 100 landing pages (each week's top 50 beyond 35 days): a page is summed over the days it was among them, so a page outside them some days reads a little low. This tab covers 2026-09-07 to 2026-09-29, by whole week where the daily rows don't reach back: the store keeps these rows by day for 35 days and by whole week before that.
- Automated visits are left out: a blog-day's Direct and Unassigned visits from a country and device under 15% engaged (see How this works).
