Understanding Your Site Traffic
Knowing who visits your site, where they come from, and what they look at helps you make better content and business decisions.
Built-In Article Stats
Joomla tracks basic hit counts for each article:
- Go to Content > Articles.
- Look at the Hits column to see how many times each article has been viewed.
This gives you a quick overview but doesn't provide detailed analytics like visitor location, device type, or traffic sources.
External Analytics (Google Analytics / Matomo)
For full analytics, your MokoWaaS site may be connected to Google Analytics, Matomo, or another analytics platform. These tools provide:
- Visitor counts — Daily, weekly, monthly traffic.
- Traffic sources — How people find you (Google search, social media, direct links).
- Popular pages — Which content gets the most attention.
- Device breakdown — Desktop vs. mobile vs. tablet visitors.
- Geographic data — Where your visitors are located.
Accessing Your Analytics
If analytics has been set up for your site, Moko Consulting will provide you with access credentials and a link to your dashboard. If you're not sure whether analytics is configured, ask us.
Tips
- Check analytics monthly — Look for trends, not daily fluctuations.
- Focus on engagement — Time on page and pages per session matter more than raw visitor counts.
- Use data to guide content — Write more of what your visitors are reading.
