Week 30: Reach Declined; Engagement Deepened

ARC attracted fewer visitors, but average online active user engagement time improved markedly. Traffic quality should be measured through actual product interaction and shopping actions rather than the inflated session key-event rate.

Store Visibility Analysis

Harvey, Glenmore and Vernon Square Mall improved. Revelstoke declined to 18 views. Andrew Scott2's 33 views came from one user and should be treated cautiously as potential development or testing activity.

AI Assistant Quality

20 sessions, 6m 48s average session engagement and 213 recorded events (10.65 per session). This is promising engagement, not a sales count.

Total key events1870Not purchase total

Shopping-path activity fell less sharply than overall traffic. Session key-event rate is 100%, but routine events qualify, so this is not a purchase conversion rate.

Recommended Actions

  • Review why Direct traffic fell 65.0%.
  • Protect Organic Search visibility.
  • Monitor AI Assistant visitor journeys and downstream shopping actions.
  • Review Revelstoke page reach and discoverability.
  • Separate internal Andrew Scott2 testing from genuine customer usage.
  • Reconcile the one-session channel discrepancy.
