Monthly visitors and converted visitors at a glance

To view a summary of the number of visitors and converted visitors for a past month:

In the Frosmo Control Panel, in the sidebar, select Dashboard.
If your site uses the redesigned dashboard, click View more statistics.
In the time range field, select either Last 30 days or a past month.
In the conversion type field, select all if you want to view the total visitor numbers, or select a specific conversion type if you want to view the numbers only for that conversion type.
Study the Visitors and converted visitors chart.
- The chart plots the number of daily visitors and the number of daily converted visitors over the selected time range and for the selected conversion type.
- The chart only shows unique visitors. If the same visitor visits the site multiple times during a given day, they count as one visitor for that day. Similarly, if the same visitor completes multiple conversions during a given day, they count as one converted visitor for that day.
- To view the exact daily numbers, hover your mouse cursor over the chart.

In the Frosmo Platform, for statistics purposes, a week starts on Monday at 00:00:00 and ends on Sunday at 23:59:59, while a month starts on the 1st of the month at 00:00:00 and ends on the last day of the month at 23:59:59.
The times always use the time zone of your Frosmo Platform instance. Your current time zone may therefore differ from the time zone that the statistics use.
Optionally, filter the statistics by segment and conversion type:
- Segment: To view the statistics only for a given segment, select the segment. To view the combined statistics for all segments, select All.
  
  note
  The segment filter only applies to the visitor charts. The session charts always show the combined statistics for all segments.
