Analytics

Analytics is first-party product traffic — page opens, visit clicks, comments, and votes. The chart on a feed note is different: that is per-note impressions and engagements. We store both in our own database. There is no third-party analytics product installed.

The default window

Open Analytics and you are on this launch week (Monday 00:00 UTC through now). That is the week the board is actually running.

Looking back

• Launch week — step to any of the last 13 Mondays (about three months).
• 30 days — a rolling calendar month.
• 3 months — a rolling 90 days. That is as far back as the dashboard goes.

What the numbers mean

• Opened a page — product page views (not prefetch).
• Left for your site — Visit clicks through /visit/{slug}.
• Notes — comments on your listings in that window.
• Votes — upvotes in that window.
• Traction — votes × 4 + comments × 3 + clicks × 2 + views.
• Profile views / followers — your maker page and follows.

Tile deltas compare this window with the previous one of the same length. The graph updates every few seconds while the tab is open. Hover a day or hour for the exact mix.
