Understanding the Click Flows Report

PLUS plans and above

What You are Seeing

  • Pathways (Lines): Each line represents the sequence of pages visited by users, starting from their entry point and following their journey through your site.
  • Nodes (Boxes): Each node corresponds to a page in the user's journey. The size of a node reflects how many users visited that page.
  • Exits: Points where users left your site are marked clearly, allowing you to identify drop-off locations.
  • Hover Details: When you hover over a node or connection, detailed information is displayed, such as:
    • Over a node: See the total number of users arriving at and leaving from that page.
    • Over a line: View the number of users transitioning between two specific pages.
