Does <PlasmicComponent /> incur a Page View, if loading a Component not a full Page?

We’re working on a NextJS e-commerce store and thus not using Headless Plasmic for all pages. As such, we’re using Headless Plasmic Components for the Header, Footer, and some user-generated content that may appear on Product pages that seems easier to manage through Plasmic as opposed to the ecommerce platform we’re using.

I’m wondering however, does each call to call incur a page view, even if it is not a full page? I’m therefore worried that a Page View, may count as three separate page views for Header, Page Content, and Footer, as well as any small components that are being included on a product page (which may then count as say 5 page views).

This, of course, would be a major limitation of our implementation. Could you provide a little insight on this?

Hi @angelo_hague !
Can you specify exactly what you mean by “page view”? Are you talking about SEO page views or page views from Plasmic’s end?
If that’s the second one, we don’t charge per page views when you fetch components or pages when you host outside of Plasmic – they only get counted if you are using Plasmic hosting :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi Alex!

Thanks for the quick response. I was referring to the second; the page views on Plasmic’s end that are tied to each Plasmic pricing tier. So if this is in fact only for instances hosted on Plasmic (this stuff; Publishing projects | Learn Plasmic) then that’s perfect!

Thank you!

@angelo_hague yes, you’re right. We probably need to do a better job of explaining that in our pricing page :grinning_face:
