Visitors Flow Report Into
Your Secret CRO Weapon
The Visitors Flow report illustrates how visitors arrive at your website and the
most common paths they take during their visits. An intelligence algorithm
clusters groups of pages together into interaction nodes, which appear as green
blocks on the report.
The gray dimension blocks illustrate how traffic lands on your site via your
interaction nodes. The connections between the interaction nodes are either
gray or red, indicating whether users moved from one page to another or if they
left the website, respectively.
Segment the Visitors Flow report for different locations, campaigns, and
anything else that will help you hone in on the important parts of your analysis.

the implementation Enhanced Link Attribution it can. This can be very helpful for
working out which banners work, which pages don't need links from the menu, and
much more.
