Project analytics
Understand visits, page views, traffic sources, devices, and countries for a published Mythos project.
Project Analytics helps you understand how people use a site after it is published. Open the project workspace and select More → Analytics.
Analytics begins collecting new visits when the project is live and Visitor analytics is enabled. It is enabled by default. Preview visits are not counted, and an unpublished project does not collect new traffic.
Analytics uses anonymous browser sessions for traffic totals. It does not identify visitors or create a persistent profile that follows someone across separate visits.
View your traffic
Publish the project
Analytics needs a live site. If the project is not published, the Analytics page shows a Publish action instead of traffic.
Open Analytics
Select More → Analytics. Traffic from the project's *.r21.dev address
and connected custom domains appears in the same dashboard.
Choose a period
Use the period picker to view today, yesterday, the last 24 hours, 7, 14, 30, or 90 days, or the current month.
Select a metric
Choose a summary metric to update the trend chart, then review the source, page, device, and country breakdowns below it.
Metrics
| Metric | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Visitors | Anonymous visits recorded during the selected period. |
| Page views | The total number of tracked pages opened. |
| Views per visit | The average number of pages opened during one visit. |
| Visit duration | The average time between the first and last tracked page in a visit. |
| Bounce rate | The share of visits that opened only one page. |
| Current visitors | Visits with activity during the last five minutes. |
A one-page visit has a recorded duration of zero because there is no second page view to measure against.
Breakdowns
- Source shows where a visit began. Visits with no usable external referrer appear as Direct.
- Page shows which paths visitors opened.
- Device groups visits into Desktop, Mobile, or Tablet.
- Country shows a coarse country result when one is available, otherwise Unknown.
These totals describe recorded browser traffic, not every request to the site. Tracking protection, disabled JavaScript, network failures, and automated-traffic filtering can make Analytics totals lower than server request counts.
Turn Visitor analytics off or on
Open Publishing settings
Go to More → Project settings → Publishing.
Change Visitor analytics
Turn Visitor analytics off to stop collecting new visits, or turn it on to resume collection for a live project. You do not need to rebuild or republish.
When analytics is disabled, More → Analytics shows an Enable Analytics action. Turning it back on collects new traffic from that point forward; it does not recreate visits from the disabled period.
Existing history remains available until it reaches the 90-day retention period or the project is deleted. Unpublishing also stops new collection.
