Report dashboards

Dashboards present a visual representation of Sitecore Search analytics reports, giving you the information and insights you need to better understand how your site is searched and how it performs.

You'll find various reports on the Analytics page by expanding a section in the left pane and clicking the report type you want to view. This displays a report dashboard that contains a composition of different report types on a keyword, page, widget, or component. For some types of reports, such as tabular reports, you can drill down on the data for a more detailed look at the metrics and KPIs.

Example of a report. In this case, the Biggest Gainers by views.

  • The Overall Engagement report provides information on all interactions with the site, pages, and widgets.

  • The Preview Search Engagement report provides information on the performance of preview search widgets.

  • The Search Page Engagement report provides information on the performance of search result widgets.

  • The Recommendation Engagement report provides information on the performance of recommendation widgets.
