What is web analytics?

Web analytics is the practice of collecting and reading data about your website's visitors. Instead of guessing whether your site is working, you get real numbers: how many people visited, whether they came from Google, social media or a direct link, which pages held their attention, and which ones they left quickly. Over time these patterns tell you what your audience actually cares about.

Why it matters: without analytics you are running your site blind. With it, you can make decisions based on evidence. If your new pricing page gets lots of visits but almost nobody clicks through to your contact form, that is a clear signal something needs fixing. An everyday example: a florist notices most of her traffic arrives on Fridays searching for weekend bouquets, so she features her weekend range on the landing page and promotes it on Thursdays. That kind of small, informed change is only possible when you can see what visitors are really doing.

Promino includes built-in, privacy-friendly analytics, so you can see your key numbers without wiring up a separate tool or wrestling with tracking codes. You get a clear view of visitors, traffic sources and popular pages right from your dashboard.

The figures are presented in plain language rather than a wall of jargon, which makes them genuinely useful when you are deciding what to change next. Take a closer look at Promino's analytics.
