Filtering Data
Use filters to focus on specific data:
Time Range
Select from three time periods:
- 7 days (default)
- 14 days
- 30 days
Click the time range buttons in the top-right corner to switch periods.
Advanced Filters
Click the "Filters" button to open the filter panel:
- Site Filter: Select one or more of your verified websites
- Listing Filter: Select specific listings to analyze
- Operator Filter: Focus on specific operators
- Click Type: Filter by click type:
- All Clicks
- Affiliate Links only
- Terms Links only
Using filters:
- Type in any filter dropdown to search for specific items
- Select multiple items to include them all
- Click "Reset" to clear all filters
- A badge on the Filters button shows how many filters are active
Tip: Combine filters to answer specific questions. For example, filter by a single site and operator to see how that operator performs on that specific website.
Understanding Trends
Each summary card and table row shows a trend indicator:
- Green with up arrow: Performance improved compared to the previous period
- Red with down arrow: Performance decreased compared to the previous period
- Percentage: Shows how much the metric changed
How trends are calculated:
Trends compare your current period to the previous equivalent period. For example:
- If you select 7 days, trends compare the last 7 days to the 7 days before that
- If you select 30 days, trends compare the last 30 days to the previous 30 days
Tip: Use trends to identify which listings or operators are gaining or losing traction over time.
Troubleshooting
I don't see any analytics data
Issue: Analytics dashboard shows "No analytics data available"
Solution:
- Ensure you have at least one verified website with embedded listings
- Check that your listings are properly embedded and receiving traffic
- Wait 24-48 hours after embedding listings for data to appear
- Analytics data is through yesterday, so today's activity won't show yet
My view counts seem low
Issue: Views are lower than expected based on website traffic
Solution:
- Verify that your API token is correctly configured
- Check that the listing embed code is loading properly on your website
- If using caching (custom implementation), views may be tracked once per cache refresh
- Use your browser's developer tools to check for JavaScript errors
I see views but no clicks
Issue: High views but zero or very few clicks
Solution:
- This may indicate low engagement with your listings
- Review your listing content and CTA button text
- Check that affiliate links are working correctly
- Consider testing different layouts or styles
Analytics shows "requires Hobby plan"
Issue: Can't access analytics data
Solution:
- Analytics is a premium feature requiring Hobby plan or higher
- Upgrade your subscription in the Billing section
- After upgrading, analytics data will be available immediately
My trend shows a large percentage change
Issue: Trend shows unusually high percentage like +500%
Solution:
- This is normal when comparing to a period with very low numbers
- For example, going from 1 click to 6 clicks shows +500%
- Focus on absolute numbers alongside percentages
- Trends become more meaningful as you collect more data over time
Data doesn't match my website analytics
Issue: tablrr analytics differ from Google Analytics or similar
Solution:
- tablrr tracks listing-specific views, not page views
- A page with multiple listings may generate multiple views
- Caching and bot traffic are handled differently by each platform
- Use tablrr analytics specifically for listing performance insights
Charts not loading
Issue: Charts appear blank or won't render
Solution:
- Try refreshing the page
- Clear your browser cache
- Disable browser extensions that may block scripts
- Try a different browser
- Check your browser console for error messages
Next Steps
Now that you understand analytics:
- Check your analytics dashboard regularly to monitor performance
- Use filters to identify your best-performing content

- Experiment with different listing styles and compare results
- Focus optimization efforts on high-view, low-CTR listings
