How to use the metrics dashboard?

Select the metrics that are important for your business, detect trends, and learn how to find the information that matters.

Customisable metrics dashboard and overview

Localistico extracts around 60 metrics from different platforms. Those metrics are available for you under analytics tab in the metrics section. Having all these metrics visible on the dashboard can be an overwhelming experience. Therefore, to avoid unnecessary noise, Localistico allows customising the dashboard and select only the metrics that are important for your business.

One example could be to select the metrics that allow you to see the performance breakdown by device to understand if your traffic is coming from mobile or desktop devices:

Another example is to focus on the clicks and web engagement and select the metrics that allow you to see from which platforms your customers are clicking to call or visit the website:

FAQ

Why do I see “N/A” in my metrics?

Technically, there is a difference between a 0 and an N/A when referring to metrics.

Let’s take for example the metric Facebook likes for a specific date. A value of “0” means there was nobody that liked the profile. This means we have data about what happened on that date and there were no likes. The difference with an N/A value is that we don’t have data for that date. Some users may have liked your profiles, but we just don't know it because your Facebook credentials, for example, are not connect and we cannot extract the data.

Why don't I have metrics from the last 2–4 days?

Some platforms take a few days to update the information, either in their own app or in their API. Google metrics will be fully available within every last 7 days. For example, as of 23 May, you should have metrics until 17th of May.

Can I see all the historic data of my profiles on Localisico?

It depends. If we have extracted that data in the past, we store it in our databases and the information can be shown. For new clients, it depends on the platform and the amount of time they offer “historic data”. At any given moment, Google offers up to 18 months of data, while Facebook does 24 months.
