### What Does the Graph Show?

The graph visually represents user activity in real-time, making it easy to identify trends, dips, and spikes in traffic. Here's what you can learn from it:

* **Traffic Trends Over Time** – The graph updates in **5-minute intervals**, showing how many users are visiting your website at any given time.
* **Traffic Source Breakdown** – Each color represents a different traffic source - **Search, Direct, Internal, Social, Referral, and Discover**.
* **Week-over-Week Comparison** – The **grey line** represents data from **seven days ago**, allowing you to compare current performance with the same day from last week.
* **Detailed Insights on Hover** – Hovering over the graph reveals a **tooltip** displaying the exact traffic breakdown and week-over-week changes.

### **How Can This Graph Help You?**

Tracking traffic patterns visually allows you to make quick, informed decisions to optimize content and marketing strategies. Here’s how:

* **Detect Underperformance Early** – If traffic is lower than last week, you can take immediate action by adjusting distribution, boosting engagement, or publishing more content.
* **Spot High-Performing Content** – A sudden spike in traffic? It could mean an article or event is gaining traction. Capitalize on it by enhancing **internal linking** and **amplifying its reach**.
* **Monitor Campaign Effectiveness** – Track how well your **push notifications, social media posts, or external referrals** are performing throughout the day.
* **Optimize Publishing Times** – Understand when your audience is most active and schedule content releases for **maximum engagement**.

### What timezone is the graph in?

During onboarding, you set the timezone for your website, and the graph follows this timezone. However, if you're in a different timezone, the time displayed on the x-axis will adjust based on your device’s local time, while the data itself remains in your website’s set timezone.

For example, if your website’s timezone is set to **Eastern Time (ET)**, the graph will display data from **12:00 AM to 11:59 PM ET**. But if you travel to the **United Kingdom (GMT timezone)**, the x-axis will show **5:00 AM on February 10 to 4:59 AM on February 11** (adjusted to your local device time), while the data remains in ET.

If you need to change the timezone for your website on Visibl, please contact us at **<info@govisibl.io>**.
