Ask HN: What % of your users have JS disabled?
Always a consideration when deciding how much time to improving the none JS user experience, curious what the stat's are for sites run by HNers?
- twunde 15y agoI'd be interested in how many people are actually tracking the users with it disabled (Remember that Google Analytics can't track them since it uses JS)

- Andrenid 15y agoGA "can" track non-JS users, but it requires a server-side implementation: http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/analytics/docs/mobile/mobileWebsites.html http://code.google.com/intl/en/apis/analytics/docs/mobile/mo...
- talkingquickly 15y agoHaven't come across this before, shame there's no ruby implementation
- dangrossman 15y agoFrom a quick sample of 1000 random sites tracked by W3Counter: around 8%
- latitude 15y agoApparently heck of a lot. Over 30%. But that's a lot of HN/reddit traffic, and I might still be missing some bots masquerading as humans, but it's certainly not negligible.

- kls 15y agoFor most of the non-technical sites I have manged the number has been between .5 and 3%, I would assume the number is higher for sites that are frequented by more technical users. This article http://developer.yahoo.com/blogs/ydn/posts/2010/10/how-many-users-have-javascript-disabled/ http://developer.yahoo.com/blogs/ydn/posts/2010/10/how-many-... says it is around 1%. Keep in mind that it was compiled in 2010.
- Andrenid 15y agoWe get about 15% of users with no JS (~250k visits a month, state Gov't site).
