What are the metrics widgets on the Dashboard?

The metrics widgets on the Dashboard allow you to have deeper insights on the performance of your online listings.

Tip: You can hover the mouse on the “i” icon next to each widget to get a short explanation about them.

Average Rating

The average of the customer feedback including a star rate. This is what you see if you have multiple locations and are in the global dashboard overview:

Average Rating per Directory

When you have several locations, once you access a specific location’s dashboard, you will be able to choose to view the Average Rating per directory (Facebook/Google):

Average Rating Activity

This widget presents a graph with the evolution of the average rating received in reviews for a certain time range selected:

Reviews Analysis

Displays the list of top 100 words mentioned in reviews with the corresponding percentage and average rating of reviews containing that word.

Feedback Activity

Represents all customer feedback over time, including those without the start rating functionality.

Visibility Index

Still on the location level, you will also see the Visibiility Index, which is calculated by the number of identical data fields when comparing the current profile and the listings on the directories pages. The score gets higher as the profile information increases.
