Analytics
The Analytics plugin adds project-level visibility into traffic and lead activity after a site is live.
What the dashboard is useful for
- Pageviews, sessions, and visitors.
- Trend comparisons over recent periods.
- Contact-form submissions as a business outcome, not just raw traffic.
Recommended workflow
- Keep Analytics enabled for the project. Hosted projects receive Analytics access by default.
- Insert the generated install markup once with
vivd plugins snippets analytics [html|astro]. - Publish the site.
- Check the dashboard after traffic starts arriving.
- Compare engagement and submission patterns over time.
What to expect
Analytics is strongest after launch. A draft project with little or no traffic will naturally show limited data.
The pre-publish checklist checks whether an enabled Analytics project has the install snippet in the website and warns when it is missing.
If a project needs explicit visitor consent before analytics runs, set the plugin config consentMode to required and call window.vivdAnalytics.grantConsent() after the site consent UI is accepted.
Read the numbers in context
- Use traffic data to understand whether people arrive.
- Use submission data to understand whether the site converts.
- Look at both together instead of treating pageviews alone as success.
