Website Report – Metro Offices (2026-09)

From September 1 to 30, 2026, the website recorded 2,246 users and 1,146 engaged sessions. Traffic fell sharply from August, although average user engagement increased from 27 to 40 seconds, suggesting the visitors who stayed spent more time with the site.

Key Takeaways

• Total users decreased 52.93%, while new users fell 54.43% to 2,145. This is mainly attributed to a large blip in traffic in August.
• Engaged sessions declined 58.76%, a steeper drop than overall traffic.
• Bounce rate rose from 47.86% to 59.52%, indicating that more visitors left without further interaction.
• Direct remained the largest listed channel with 1,289 users, despite declining 65%. Organic Search increased 13% and brought in 688 users.
• Desktop dominated the device mix, accounting for approximately 1,742 users compared with 499 on mobile.

Channel Notes

Direct traffic remained the largest listed source, but its 65% decline contributed heavily to the overall traffic loss. Reviewing Direct landing pages and channel classification may help determine whether this reflects a real audience change or a measurement issue from August.

Organic Search showed stronger results, increasing 13% and producing a 3:07 average session duration. AI Assistant and Referral traffic also had session durations above three minutes, although their audience volumes were smaller. The channel report includes only five of eight rows, so the mix is incomplete.

Device Notes

The audience was strongly desktop-oriented, with roughly 78% of recorded users visiting on desktop. Mobile still represented 499 users, so key landing pages and location pages should provide a clear, fast experience on smaller screens as well.

What We Recommend Next

• Review Direct traffic by landing page and confirm that channel classification is working correctly.
• Evaluate high-traffic landing pages for load speed, message match, and clear calls to action to address the higher bounce rate.
• Compare the Washington, DC page, up 108%, and the Dupont Circle page, up 20%, with other location pages to identify useful content or layout patterns.
• Validate device reporting and restore all channel rows so future comparisons use complete, consistent data.

How We’ll Measure Improvement

We will compare future results with September’s baseline and look for stronger traffic quality, better landing-page engagement, and more reliable reporting.

• A lower bounce rate than 59.52% alongside growth in engaged sessions.
• Recovery in total and new users, supported by channel-level improvements rather than unexplained Direct traffic changes.
• Complete channel reporting and device totals that align with the reported user count.
