## How usage is calculated

Our subscription tiers are based on the total number of pageviews and custom events between all the sites you have added to your Plausible Analytics account.
13+
Your subscription tier is based on the total number of **pageviews** and **[custom events](/docs/custom-event-goals)** across all the sites in your account.
1414

15-
To calculate your usage levels, we take all the websites you have added to your account and total the number of pageviews between them. If you use the "[Custom Events](custom-event-goals.md)" feature, then these count towards your total usage as well.
15+
Custom events include outbound link clicks, file downloads, 404 error tracking and any manually tracked events. Adding a [pageview goal](/docs/pageview-goals) does not count towards your usage.
1616

17-
"**Custom Events**" include external link clicks, file downloads and 404 error page tracking. The act of adding a "[Pageview Goal](pageview-goals.md)" has no effect on your usage.

You can check your usage levels in your account settings within the "**Subscription**" section. You should be on a subscription tier that fits your usage levels. You can get 2 months free on a yearly plan.
17+
Check your current usage in the "**Subscription**" section of your account settings and pick a tier that matches.

## What happens if I go over my monthly page views limit?

You will never be charged extra for an occasional traffic spike. No surprise fees, no stats interruption, no unexpected charges.

You will never be charged extra for an occasional traffic spike. We will never stop counting your stats because of an occasional traffic spike. There are no surprise fees and your card will never be charged unexpectedly.
36+
If higher traffic becomes your new normal and pageviews exceed your tier for **two consecutive months**, we'll email you and ask you to upgrade. The new charge is pro-rated. You only pay the difference for the remaining time on your current billing cycle.

Suppose new higher traffic levels become your new standard and your page views exceed your subscription plan for two consecutive months. In that case, we will contact you and ask you to upgrade your subscription plan to accommodate your new traffic levels using our self-serve platform. The new charge will be prorated to reflect the amount you have already paid and the time until your current subscription is supposed to expire.
38+
If you don't upgrade within a week of our notice, stats will be temporarily locked until you move to the right tier or your usage drops back within your limits.

To maintain access to your stats, you will need to upgrade your account to accommodate your new traffic levels. If you do not upgrade your account within a week, our automated system will lock the stats making them inaccessible. Your stats will be automatically unlocked once you upgrade to the appropriate tier or if your usage falls back within your subscription limits.
