Page Views
The Page views metric shows the number of times that a given dimension item was set or persisted on a page. It is one of the most common and basic metrics in reports.
How this metric is calculated
This metric counts all page view tracking calls (t()
) in a report suite. For dimensions, it includes hits where a dimension item is set or persisted. It does not include link tracking calls (tl()
) or data from Data sources.
Compare to similar metrics
- Page views vs. Visits: Page views count the number of times that a page is viewed. Visits count the number of sessions for visitors. One visit consists of one or more page views.
- Page views vs. Page events: Page views count the number of page view tracking calls (
t()
), and exclude link tracking calls (tl()
). Page events are the opposite; they count the number of link tracking calls, and exclude page view tracking calls.
