Name | Definition |
|---|---|
Today | Shows metics for the current day only. Metrics for today will always be incomplete, because there is still time left while ads will be displayed generating revenue and there are some revenue sources that will only be updated in certain intervalls, like 5 minutes, hourly or daily. Looking at metrics for today is especially helpful when making changes on the ad setup and you want to see if everything is working as expected. Metrics will be compared vs yesterdays metrics. It is important to note that comparing incomplete metrics from today vs complete metrics from yesterday will always show a negative trend. |
Yesterday | Shows metrics for the last full reporting day. Metrics for yesterday will be complete in the morning of the next day. Looking at metrics for yesterday is helpful to see the latest complete performance of the ad setup. Metrics will be compared vs the day before. |
Last 7 days | Show metrics for the last 7 full days starting from yesterday. Weekly metrics are useful because there are differences between working days, weekends and other user behavior and a week summizes this typical behavioral differences. Metrics will be compared vs the same weekdays the week before. Comparing weeks and especially the same weekdays gives insight on typical weekly user behavior. |
Last 28 days | Shows metrics for the last 28 full days, i.e. last 4 weeks, starting from yesterday. Like the Last 7 days it focuses on weekly metrics but at the same time covers monthly behavior as well. This is the default time range used by the dashboard. Metrics will be compared vs the same weekdays 28 days before. |
Last month | Shows metrics for a full month. It is useful to see the overall performance for the last billing period. Metrics will be compared vs the month before. Naturally, it will not compare the same weekdays so it should not be used for daily comparison, but is useful for monthly comparisons. The comparison time range will use the exact same amount of days, i.e. if the comparison month has less days than the base month, it will fill with days from the month before. |
Month To Date | Show metrics for the current month starting from yesterday. It is useful to see the performance of the current month so far. On the first of a month, it will show metrics from the full last month. Metrics will be compared vs the same monthdays of the previous month. The comparison time range will use the exact same amount of days, i.e. if the comparison month has less days than the base month, it will fill with days from the month before. |
Custom | The custom time range can be used to choose custom start and ends dates, limited to 3 months. Metrics will be compared to the same number of days by selecting a custom start and end date. The comparison time range cannot overlap with the base time range and needs to be in the past. |
