Site Analytics: Traffic by Date / Time

The Traffic By Date/Time page in the Site Analytics section of Intelligence displays data about the days and times that customers are viewing website users as a report directly from Google Analytics. This can help you understand things like what time of day your customers are viewing your website. Use these details in comparison to conversion data to learn when your most valuable customers are most active.

Please keep in mind that you must have Google Analytics connected and set up on your account with the correct Analytics ID's for this feature to work. If you have an account with managed services, reach out to your dedicated team for assistance. If you have an account without managed services, you'll need to use the Account Integration feature to connect Marketing 360 to Google Analytics.
