Measuring UsersMore about Users
Users, also known as Website Visitors, is a commonly tracked metric measuring the volume of visitors to your website. Users includes new and returning users and can be a useful metric to measure website growth and popularity over time. It is also helpful to track other metrics, such as Sign Up Rate, to better understand the value bought into your business by your website Users.
Visitors to your website are logged and tracked as Users from the first time they visit your website, with the help of a unique client ID assigned to them. This client ID helps distinguish between new users and returning users. By separating this metric into new and returning users, you can identify if users are compelled to return to your website, thus demonstrating potential to convert.
