Referral tracking dashboard
Context & problem
Objective: show how many visitors a regulation content site sends to a key service page, next to the site's Google search traffic.
Challenge: content was judged on traffic alone, with no simple view of the business it drives.
Approach
- Defined what to measure: clicks to the service page, clicks to the rest of the product site, and search clicks for comparison.
- Chose a lightweight setup: live data without the dashboard calling external APIs.
- Made it self-serve: built-in connection checks, step-by-step setup guidance and a README for the developer who deploys it.
- Link clicks on the content site
- Tracking script
- Database
- Dashboard
Search Console data is synced into the same database once a day.
Results
- Delivered: a working live dashboard and setup guide, ready for the team to deploy.
