Landing Page Performance dashboard
The Landing Page Performance dashboard provides a view of the performance of your landing pages over a specified time period. Performance is measured by metrics like page views, visits, form submissions, and so on. You can use this dashboard to view overall trends, and view your best or worst performing landing pages.

Good to know
- Landing pages are tracked pages created in Oracle Eloqua. When a visitor visits any tracked page for the first time, Oracle Eloqua attempts to place a cookie on the visitor's computer or device. Oracle Eloqua can then store information about a visit such as the length of the visit, the entry and exit pages, and so on. Additionally the cookie can provide information about the visitor's company, browser, and referring page. After a visitor is identified, the visit information is associated to their contact record.
- Breakdown of visitor, visits, page views, and sessions:
- A visitor is someone who visits a tracked website or landing page. A visitor is tracked by the Oracle Eloqua cookie.
- A visit is anytime a visitor viewed your website or landing page.
- A page view is when a tracked web page or landing page on your website is loaded. A visitor might load the same page multiple times which results in multiple page views.
- A session consists of all the visitor's interactions during a given time frame. A session ends when a visitor exists your website, closes their browser, or after 10 minutes of inactivity.
For example, a contact browses to your website and views the home page and a product page. That results in the following counts:
- Visitor: 1
- Visit: 1
- Page views: 2
The visitor then returns to the home page and then visits a different product page. That would increase the page views to 4, but the visitor and visit metrics remain unchanged. A new visit would be counted if the visitor returned to your website after the session ends.
-
A new visitor is a visitor using a computer or device that doesn't have an Oracle Eloqua cookie. This could be because the visitor:
- never visited a tracked page or clicked through a link
- visited from a new browser, computer, or device
- deleted the cookie
- previously had disabled browser cookies
- If your organization is using third-party cookies and the visitor disabled cookies, no visitor information is stored.
- Strict mode tracking may require that visitors opt-in to cookie tracking. If a visitor has not opted-in, no visitor information is stored.
