Analyzing Traffic for all Account Sites

This article discusses how to use the Sites Overview screen to show analytics for all sites in your account.

The Sites Overview Screen

The Sites Overview screen shows throughput data for each site in your account. The timeline graph shows the network throughput for the site and performance for the selected time range. You can then select a site to drill-down and show more specific analytics.
