Social Hampster tracks two types of engagement for every feed component on your site: views and clicks. This data is available in your dashboard with no setup required. Tracking starts automatically as soon as a component is live on your site.

No setup needed. Analytics tracking is built in to every Social Hampster component. You do not need to add any tracking code or connect a third-party analytics tool.

What is tracked

	Metric When it is counted
Views	Counted each time your feed component enters a visitor's viewport. This means the visitor scrolled the feed into their visible screen area.
Clicks	Counted each time a visitor clicks on a post card in the feed. Clicking a card typically opens the original post on the social platform.

Where to see your analytics

Main dashboard — overall stats

Go to app.socialhampster.com. The Statistics section near the top of the dashboard shows your totals across all feeds:

Today's Views and Today's Clicks — activity from the current day
Total Views and Total Clicks — cumulative totals for the selected time period

Use the filter buttons to switch between Today, This Week, and This Month.

Feed Details panel — per-feed stats

To see analytics for a specific feed:

Go to app.socialhampster.com
Find the feed in your Feeds list
Click Details
The Analytics section at the top of the Feed Details panel shows stats for that feed only

The Feed Details analytics shows:

Views — Today and Total
Clicks — Today and Total
Click-through Rate (CTR) — the percentage of views that resulted in a click, calculated automatically

Note on view counting: A view is counted when the component enters the visitor's viewport, not when the page loads. This means if a visitor never scrolls to see the feed, it will not count as a view. This gives you a more accurate picture of actual engagement.

Understanding click-through rate

Click-through rate (CTR) is the percentage of feed views that resulted in at least one click. For example, if your feed was viewed 100 times and visitors clicked a post 12 times, your CTR is 12%.

A higher CTR means visitors are engaging with your social content and clicking through to see more. CTR varies by platform and content type — image-heavy feeds (Instagram, Dribbble) typically see higher CTR than text-heavy feeds (Threads).
