Web Analytics Dashboard Examples

This dashboard is designed to visualize how effectively a website is converting traffic. A ‘goal completion’ occurs when a user submits a lead generation form, which is then processed by one of the Sales Managers.

In this example, the Marketing Manager can quickly and easily see that conversions have dropped significantly in the past month. This is despite the number of website sessions remaining constant. It’s possible that something on the website is preventing the users from converting, such as a slow loading landing page, or a broken form.

This dashboard is also tracking engagement metrics, such as bounce rate and session duration, in order to show how effective the site is at maintaining users’ interest and attention.

In 2020, Google released Google Analytics 4 as its default analytics platform, though many Google Analytics users can still (and often do) also choose to use the previous version – Universal Analytics.

Google Analytics 4 made sweeping changes to the data Google Analytics collects, including moving to new metrics such as Engaged Sessions and Engagement Rate. The structure of data it now collects also makes it easy to measure performance across different platforms, which is especially useful for companies who need to track user behaviour on their apps, as well as their website.

The dashboard above visualizes data collected on Google Analytics 4 so the team can quickly and easily monitor user engagement and the performance of their platforms. It tracks user metrics concurrently for both app and website.

Web analytics dashboards aren’t just used for day-to-day operations. Many dashboards are set up to track one-off or time-limited events. This dashboard has been set up to track the launch of a new, refreshed website.

The dashboard can quickly highlight any acute problems with the new site that would affect the visitors’ experience. This includes tracking website uptime (using data from Pingdom), load time and general session metrics (using data from Google Analytics).
