The basics

A visit is a browsing session. Page views count the pages opened during that visit. Reading the two together helps you see how much of your website people explore.

Where visits begin

Follow the trend

Compare similar periods before drawing conclusions. Look for patterns over time, then use sources and campaigns to understand what changed.

Look at your content

Start with your most visited pages. Check where visits begin, how far people scroll, and which actions happen next. A page can be useful even when it is not the busiest.

Take the next step

Choose one question, open the relevant report, and make a small change. Add a timeline note so you can compare the results later.
