Website Visits
What is Website Visits?
Website Visits represent the total number of sessions recorded on your domain during a defined period. Each session starts when a user loads a page and ends after inactivity (or at midnight, depending on your analytics platform). Because it includes both first‑time and returning visitors, the metric provides a holistic view of traffic volume and momentum.
Common tracking tools: Google Analytics 4, HubSpot, Segment, Amplitude.
