My website traffic dropped from one country

Updated 2026-10-16

Short answer: when the overall numbers look normal, a drop from a single country is easy to miss. It usually means something is blocking or failing for that region: a firewall or country rule, a routing problem, or a service that doesn't work there.

How to check it yourself

  1. In your analytics, compare visits by country for the last 7 days against the week before.
  2. Look for a country that fell sharply while the total held.
  3. Check your firewall or Cloudflare country rules, and any recent changes to them.
  4. Ask someone in that country to load the site, or use a test service with probes there.

What Preventionlabs shows

With a read-only Cloudflare token connected, every report compares visitors and page views, last 7 days against the week before and yesterday against a typical day, and lists countries whose requests fell to a tenth or less while the total held. These are Cloudflare's counts, bots included. For example, from a real report: "Requests from NL: 27 in the last 7 days, 1030 the 7 days before, while the domain's total held", and on the same site Spain went from 292 to 0.
