Visitors detailed reports

IMPORTANT: Sitefinity CMS Analytics module is unavailable after July 1, 2024, because it depends on the discontinued Google Universal Analytics. We recommend using Sitefinity Insight and the Script manager (available in Sitefinity CMS 14.3 and later) to integrate another analytics solution.

To access all the information related to the visitors of your website, in Sitefinity CMS backend, navigate to Marketing » Analytics and in the left pane, expand Visitors.

The system displays a list of reports containing details about the visitors of your website:

Report Description
New vs Returning The New vs returning visitors page appears, where the following is displayed:
  • A stacked area chart of the number of visits of new and returning visitors.

    NOTE: When you click Map in the upper-right corner of the page, you can see a distribution of all visits across the map of the world

  • The values of the Visitors indicators.
  • New vs returning visitor details table, containing the number and the proportion of new and returning visitors.
  • A pie chart representing the contribution of each type of visitor.

NOTE: To display details about each specific type of visitor from the table, click the type of visitor. The system opens a report containing an area chart of this type of visitors, together with the values of the main indicators for this type of visitors only. When you click Map in the upper-right corner of the page, you can see a distribution of the visits from new or returning visitors only across the map of the world.

Languages The Languages page appears, where the following is displayed:
  • A stacked area chart of the number of visits with different languages.

    NOTE: When you click Map in the upper-right corner of the page, you can see a distribution of all visits across the map of the world.

The system opens a report containing an area chart of the visits with this specific language, together with the values of the main indicators for this language only. When you click Map in the upper-right corner of the page, you can see a distribution of the visits with that language only across the map of the world.

Visitor trending When you click Visitor trending, the system displays a detailed report for the Visits indicator, which contains the detailed chart for the chosen time interval, together with a bar chart displaying absolute and relative values for each day, week, or month.

    This is a detailed report for the Average pages per visit indicator.
