How visitor activity appears in reports

Web-Stat Premium expands the Web-Stat visitor analytics service with reports on how people use a WordPress site. After installation and activation, the add-on starts tracking visits. Administrators can view reports from WordPress or sign in to the Web-Stat service. Tracking is invisible to users by default; a visitor counter can be enabled in the WordPress settings.

Paid plan features vary. Expanded reporting can include:

• Page views and the paths visitors take through pages.
• Bounce rates, visit depth, and time spent on the website.
• Conversion information.
• The name, email address, and photo of signed-in customers when the optional visitor information capability is enabled.
• Downtime monitoring.

Reading visitor and site activity

Page views and click-paths display which pages visitors reach and how they navigate between them. Bounce rates, visit depth, and time-on-site add context for reviewing engagement. Conversion information can be considered alongside those measures when assessing outcomes from site activity.

Signed-in user details identify visitors when they are logged in and the relevant feature is enabled. The service processes visit data on its hosted servers rather than storing it solely in the WordPress database. Site owners can describe their analytics use in their privacy notice and configure tracking for their visitors as appropriate.

Setup and report access

Install and activate the extension to set up an account and begin tracking. The basic plan is free; expanded reporting requires a paid plan, and functions depend on the plan selected. Open Web-Stat from the WordPress administration menu to view reports. To manage account settings or find login details, open Web-Stat settings in WordPress.
