Monitor and optimize your content performance by tracking visitor engagement, user interactions, and conversion metrics. This guide helps you understand how users discover, interact, and engage with your content.

Visitor Metrics

Track the number of users who see your content and how often they return. Monitor views across different segments and compare usage patterns over time.

Views

  • Total number of content views during the selected period

  • Includes repeat visits from the same user

  • Helps track overall engagement and identify peak usage periods

Unique Views

  • Count of distinct users who viewed your content

  • Each user counted only once regardless of repeat visits

  • Essential for measuring actual content reach and audience growth

Views by User

  • Searchable and downloadable user list

  • Includes UserID, email, total views, and last view timestamp

  • Option to click-through for detailed user insights

Views by Source

  • URL Path: Track which paths lead to your document

  • URL Domain: Monitor referring domains
