Conversion Insights Dashboard
The Conversion Insights dashboard shows how your site speed impacts conversion and bounce rates. By default, all metrics represent the past 14 days.
Two Versions of This Dashboard
Yottaa currently offers two versions of the Conversion Insights dashboard, the existing version and a new version with Revenue data.
This topic covers the existing dashboard version. If you see Revenue and Revenue per Session in the first row of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), that means that Revenue Tracking is enabled on your site. See Conversion Insights Dashboard with Revenue Data for more information.
To display the Conversion Insights dashboard, in the main navigation, click Dashboard > Conversion Insights.
If you have the Conversion Zone feature on the Yottaa's Insights Dashboard, you can also access Conversion Insights by clicking the orange arrow next to the Conversion Zone Analysis section title to open the Conversion Insights dashboard.
To change the date range, click .
How Yottaa Tracks Conversions
Yottaa defines a conversion as any time that a customer reaches your order confirmation page.
If you don't see data on the dashboard, confirm the following:
-
An order confirmation page category is defined in Settings > Page Categories. See Page Categories.
-
The Yottaa script is inserted on your order confirmation page. See Confirming that the Yottaa Script Is Running on Your Site's Pages.
If Revenue Tracking is enabled for your site but Yottaa is unable to access your site's revenue data, the portal alerts you so that you can review and troubleshoot your Revenue Tracking setup. See Tracking Revenue Data for details.
