Web Analytics & Real-User Monitoring

Cronitor's Web Analytics & Real-User Monitoring enables you to monitor your website's most important metrics, in real time. This includes metrics such as Pageviews, Core Web Vitals, Page Load Time, Errors and more. You can then filter and analyze your site date by time, location, referrer and many more. It's cookie-free, privacy-centric, and easy to configure.

Quickstart

Step 1: Add your Site

In your Cronitor dashboard, go to Sites and fill in the details for it.

Create site form

You can pick any name you'd like. It's just to help you recognize it later in case you have multiple sites.

This name can be changed anytime, and is not tied to your domain. In other words if your domain name is www.example.com you can name your site something else like My Website.

Once you've created your site, you'll get a custom tracking snippet. The analytics snippet is a small piece of code that runs on your website, and it collects the metrics necessary to show you the insights in the dashboard.

Tracking snippet

Step 2: Install the SDK

Once you have added your website to Cronitor, all that is left to do is to install the tracking snippet on your website.

All you have to do is load this snippet as part of your website's HTML. The snippet works with any website or framework - simply add it to your HTML template or layout file.

Step 3: Collect pageviews

After you have added our analytics script to your website, you should be able to see pageviews show up in the dashboard within a minute of the visitors coming into your website.
