Global traffic can be unpredictable. A viral post or a bot crawl can spike your page views, potentially consuming your monthly quota faster than anticipated. MultiLipi provides Customizable Usage Caps (Circuit Breakers) that allow you to define strict ceilings for both Page Views and Word Counts. These act as safety valves, ensuring you never exceed your allocated budget or plan limits without manual approval.
This guide details the protocol for configuring these governance thresholds.
1. The Governance Mechanisms
Understanding the two types of limits.
A. Page Views Limit (The Traffic Breaker)
Function: Sets a maximum number of translated page loads your site will serve.
Trigger Event: If you set this to 50,000 and your traffic hits 50,001:
Tindakan: MultiLipi temporarily stops serving the translated version of your site.
User Experience: Visitors will see the default (original) language version until the limit is reset or the billing cycle renews.
Maksud: Prevents Overage Charges on metered plans.
B. Words Limit (The Generation Breaker)
Function: Sets a maximum number of source words the Neural Engine is allowed to translate.
Trigger Event: If you set this to 10,000 words:
Tindakan: The system will stop translating new content.
Status: Existing translations remain live and visible. Only new text appearing on your site will remain in the source language.
Maksud: Prevents a large blog archive or user-generated content from draining your translation quota instantly.
2. Configuration Protocol
Manage these thresholds directly from your project's command center.
Step 1: Access Setup
- • Masuk ke Dasbor MultiLipi Anda.
- • Navigate to Settings in the left-hand sidebar.
- • Select Setup from the sub-menu.
Step 2: Define Thresholds
Scroll down to the Page Views Limit and Words Limit sections.
Method A (Sliders): Drag the visual slider to your desired percentage or value.
Method B (Precision Input): Type an exact integer (e.g., 25000) into the input field for granular control.
Step 3: Commit Policy
Click the Save button to activate the rules immediately.
Operational Note:
You can click Reset at any time to clear these custom limits and default back to your plan's maximum capacity.
3. Strategic Implementation Strategies
When to use these caps.
The "Budget Lock" Strategy: If your plan includes 100,000 page views, set your Page View Limit to 95,000. This gives you a "warning buffer" before you hit the hard ceiling of your subscription.
The "Phased Rollout" Strategy: When launching a massive site (e.g., 5,000 pages), set a low Words Limit initially. Navigate to your high-priority pages (Home, Pricing, Contact) to translate them first. Once verified, raise the limit to translate the rest. This ensures your quota isn't wasted on low-value footer links or archived posts immediately.
The "Crisis Mode" Strategy: If you detect a bot attack or spam traffic, instantly lower your Page View Limit to pause the translation service and protect your remaining credits while you block the malicious IPs.
