The Global Dashboard gives you a bird's-eye view of your entire link portfolio. Instead of checking analytics one link at a time, the Global Dashboard aggregates data from all your links into a single unified view.
Availability
The Global Dashboard is available on paid plans only. If you're on the free plan, you'll need to upgrade to access this feature.
Accessing the Global Dashboard
Navigate to /global-dashboard from your Bouncy account, or look for the Global Dashboard option in your sidebar navigation.
What You'll See
Aggregate Stats
At the top of the Global Dashboard, you'll see high-level metrics across all your links:
Metric | Description |
Total Views | The combined view count across every link you own |
Active Links | How many of your links are currently active (not disabled) |
Avg Views per Link | Your total views divided by the number of links, giving you a sense of average link performance |
Growth | The overall growth trend across all your links compared to the previous period |
These metrics respond to the time range you select, just like individual link analytics.
Aggregate Performance Chart
The performance chart shows your combined traffic over time. This is the same style of area chart you see on individual link analytics, but it aggregates views from all your links into a single line.
This view is especially useful for:
Understanding your total traffic volume at a glance
Spotting overall trends (are things growing or shrinking across the board?)
Identifying days with unusually high or low combined traffic
Top Performers Widget
The Top Performers section shows your top 8 links ranked by view count within the selected time range. For each link, you'll see:
The link URL or name
Its total view count for the period
This quickly highlights which links are driving the most traffic without needing to check each one individually.
Timezone Selector
The Global Dashboard includes a timezone selector that lets you view your data in different timezones. Available options include:
Local Time — your browser's local timezone (default)
UTC — Coordinated Universal Time
ET — US Eastern Time
CT — US Central Time
MT — US Mountain Time
PT — US Pacific Time
London — UK time (GMT/BST)
CET — Central European Time
Tokyo — Japan Standard Time
China — China Standard Time
Sydney — Australian Eastern Time
Changing the timezone affects how data points are grouped on the chart and how daily boundaries are calculated. For more details, see Understanding Timezone Settings.
Export Options
The Global Dashboard supports exporting your analytics data in two formats:
CSV Export
Export your aggregate data as a CSV (Comma-Separated Values) file. This is ideal for:
Opening in spreadsheet software (Excel, Google Sheets)
Running your own calculations and analysis
Sharing raw data with team members or clients
Importing into other analytics tools
PDF Export
Export a formatted PDF report of your Global Dashboard. The PDF includes visual elements like charts and stats, making it suitable for:
Client reports and presentations
Monthly performance summaries
Archiving analytics snapshots
Sharing with stakeholders who don't have Bouncy access
For detailed export instructions, see Exporting Analytics as PDF or CSV.
Using the Global Dashboard Effectively
Weekly Performance Reviews
Set a recurring time each week to check the Global Dashboard. Select "Last 7 Days" to see your week's performance:
Check Total Views — is your overall traffic up or down?
Look at Growth — how does this week compare to last week?
Review Top Performers — are the same links always on top, or are new ones emerging?
Check the chart for any unusual spikes or dips
Identifying Underperformers
If you have many active links but your Avg Views per Link is low, some links might be dragging down the average. Check the Top Performers list — if the same 2-3 links account for most traffic, the rest might need attention (updated destinations, fresh promotion, etc.).
Campaign Monitoring
During marketing campaigns, check the Global Dashboard daily to see how the campaign is affecting your overall traffic. A successful campaign should create a visible uptick in the aggregate chart.
Client Reporting
If you manage links for clients, use the PDF export to generate clean reports. Set the time range to the reporting period (Last Month, custom date range, etc.) and export.
