Metrics and Definitions
RGstat provides clear and accurate insights based on real user behavior. All data is displayed according to your local time zone, which we detect from your browser.
Here’s how each metric works:
Visitors
Section titled “Visitors”Visitors are unique people who visited your website during the day.
We generate a hash using their IP address and User Agent to identify them.
If the same person visits your site multiple times in one day, they count as one visitor, but they may have multiple sessions.
Sessions
Section titled “Sessions”Sessions represent individual visits to your website.
A single visitor can have multiple sessions if they return more than once in a day.
We automatically end a session if more than 30 minutes have passed since the last user interaction.
Example: A visitor opens your website, waits 31 minutes, and then clicks again.
RGstat will count 1 visitor and 2 sessions.
Views are the total number of page views — how many pages were seen by all visitors.
Views per Session
Section titled “Views per Session”This is the average number of pages viewed in a single session.
Session Duration
Section titled “Session Duration”The average amount of time users spend on your site during a session.
We calculate this by measuring the time between user actions (like page views).
Example:
- Page 1 opened
- 5 seconds later: Page 2
- 15 seconds later: Page 3
- No further activity
→ Total session duration = 20 seconds
Bounce Rate
Section titled “Bounce Rate”Bounce rate is the percentage of visitors who viewed only one page and did nothing else.
If a visitor opens your website and leaves without interacting — it counts as a bounce.
