Website Traffic
The Website Traffic tab shows data from Google Analytics 4 (GA4), helping you understand how visitors interact with your website.
Key Metrics
At the top of the dashboard, you'll see four important numbers:
Active Users
The number of unique visitors to your website during the selected period. Each person is counted once, even if they visit multiple times.
Sessions
The total number of visits to your website. One person can have multiple sessions if they visit on different days or after being away for 30+ minutes.
Page Views
The total number of pages viewed. If one visitor looks at 5 pages, that counts as 5 page views.
Bounce Rate
The percentage of visitors who leave after viewing only one page. A lower bounce rate is generally better, as it means visitors are exploring your site.
Understanding the Sparklines
Each metric card shows a small trend line (sparkline) at the bottom. This shows how the metric has changed over the selected period:
Upward trend - The metric is increasing
Downward trend - The metric is decreasing
Flat line - The metric is stable
Sessions Over Time Chart
Below the key metrics, a larger chart shows your daily sessions over time. Hover over any point to see the exact number for that day.
The chart header shows:
Total - Sum of all sessions in the period
Daily Avg - Average sessions per day
