Leveraging doc stats
There are countless ways to leverage doc stats to improve your docs and workspace. Here are some ideas to get you started.Keep important pages fresh
Take a look at the pages stats to find out which pages are getting the most visitors. These are the pages that people use the most, so it's crucial to keep the information on them up to date. You might want to make it a habit to check on your most popular pages every month and make any necessary updates.![](https://sanity-images.imgix.net/production/1c291d1da2f58e43f0783966f464e8616db67c56-876x436.png?w=2000&auto=format%2Ccompress)
Archiving
It is important with any Coda doc to keep it updated and filled with only the stuff that matters. Over time, some parts of the doc might become outdated or not useful anymore, like views that were spun up for niche purposes but never deleted, or project brainstorms for initiatives long past. The pages stats can help you identify these relic pages that aren't being used. To identify the unused pages, sort by views from lowest to highest, and think about whether you can archive any of the least used pages.Increase engagement
The amount of time a user spends on a Coda page can indicate their level of engagement. Longer viewing durations generally suggest that the user is actively consuming the content and finding value in it. This information can help gauge the effectiveness and interest level of the page. The average view time per page can be found in the pages section of the dashboard.![](https://sanity-images.imgix.net/production/28c1de80aa2fb7d7ae4bdd8baaba14fdd2d2bb02-1275x322.png?w=2000&auto=format%2Ccompress)
High traffic pages where users are already engaged can also be a great place to ask for feedback. Consider embedding a Coda form for users to easily submit feedback, request updates, or suggest improvements they’d like to see.
Facilitating rollouts
When you start a new Coda page or doc, you need to let your team or company know about it by creating a rollout plan. You can check the doc stats to see if your plan is successful. The counts of doc and page views will show you if users are accessing your new doc and will indicate if the rollout is finished or if you need to keep promoting it.Inform change management
Anytime you make updates or changes to a doc, there will be a window of time where said doc is “under construction”, potentially even unusable. Knowing how and when a doc is used can help you plan to make the updates at the least disruptive time.The “sessions by day” and “views by day stats” show you traffic levels per day. Look to see if you can identify days of the week or month where usage is low and plan your updates for those days.

Optimize for device preference
Scroll to the bottom of the dashboard and take a look at “Performance by Device”. This graph breaks out views by the device used: desktop, mobile, or other.![](https://sanity-images.imgix.net/production/00a47436bda8522b276dd1c12b27fb2c303c9852-1252x382.png?w=2000&auto=format%2Ccompress)
