What exactly is Web Analytics in Crazy Egg?
Crazy Egg’s Web Analytics is a no-setup, easy-to-read reporting tool that gives you a full picture of your website traffic all in one place. It’s designed for people who want actionable insights, not endless configuration.
You get a visual dashboard that highlights the top 6 items in every category (like devices, referrers, UTM sources, and landing pages), and you can click into any section to see the full breakdown.
It’s built for DIY marketers and IC marketers — the ones who wear multiple hats and need something clearer than GA4, but still powerful enough to drive decisions.
Web Analytics is the starting point in Crazy Egg’s broader optimization loop:
Measure → Analyze → Create → Test → Target.
What type of questions can I answer with Web Analytics?
Crazy Egg’s Web Analytics helps you answer key questions about your website traffic and performance, including:
- Where are my website visitors coming from?
- What countries, devices, and browsers are most common?
- How many people are new vs. returning?
- Which pages are most visited — and which ones get ignored?
- What traffic sources are driving meaningful engagement?
- Are people bouncing quickly, or staying and exploring?
- How do my campaigns (like emails, social posts, and ads) perform?
Whether you’re a founder, marketer, or someone managing a site for the first time, these insights help you make smarter decisions.
