Before
The slow way
A dozen sites in one analytics account, and no way to see at a glance which one had a good day, which went quiet and which one spiked.
The idea
Where the path bends
Compare each site with itself, not with the others. A usual day is the median of the 28 days before yesterday, so one strange day never sets the bar.
What runs
Step by step
- Every ten minutes the numbers are fetched once and kept, so the page is instant.
- Each site shows now, today, yesterday against a usual day, and seven days against the seven before.
- A list at the top names the spikes, the drops and the sites that went quiet, in plain sentences.
- Spike
- The bakery site: 3 times a usual day, mostly from one newsletter
- Drop
- The shop: half a usual day since Sunday
- Gone quiet
- The old campaign page: no visitors for 7 days
Outcome
Running, refreshing itself every five minutes while it is open.
Examples, made up to show the idea
The same run in your company
- A chain of shops
Each branch’s till totals against its usual Saturday, with the outliers named before the morning meeting.
- A support team
Ticket counts per product against a usual week, flagged when one product starts to climb.
