Viewing Your Analytics Data

Once connected, Google Analytics will start collecting user data from your site. You can view comprehensive reports under the “Reports” tab in your GA dashboard.

What You Can Track

  • Real-time visitors: See who’s on your site right now
  • Page views: Most and least popular pages
  • User demographics: Age, location, and interests
  • Traffic sources: Search engines, social media, direct visits
  • User behavior: How visitors navigate through your site

​
Troubleshooting

Common solutions:
  1. Check if you republished: Analytics won’t work until you republish your site after connecting
  2. Verify the code: Make sure you copied the complete Google tag code
  3. Wait for data: It can take 24-48 hours for data to appear in GA
  4. Test installation: Use the “Test installation” feature in Google Analytics
  5. Check domain: Ensure your domain is correctly published and accessible
If issues persist, contact our support team for assistance.
If you have multiple websites, you can:
  1. Create separate data streams for each domain in the same GA property
  2. Use different GA properties for completely separate tracking
  3. Set up cross-domain tracking if the sites are related
Choose the approach that best fits your analytics needs.
