SITE INSIGHTS
Website Analytics Straight From Your Server
Site Insights is xCloud's website analytics for site owners and developers. It reads requests on the server, so it shows traffic, bots, status codes and bandwidth with no tracking script, plus PHP and MySQL load. Site Insights is on paid plans. PageSpeed scores are on every plan.
- Traffic, bots and bandwidth per site
- PHP and MySQL load, slow pages and queries
- PageSpeed scores for mobile and desktop
WHY IT MATTERS
Why Use Server-Side Website Analytics?
See the bots too
Browser analytics miss bots. The server logs the requests that reach it, bots included.
Find the slow layer
When a site is slow, you can check traffic, PHP and MySQL side by side.
Nothing to install
No script to add to your pages. The data comes from the server.
WHAT YOU GET
What Does Site Insights Show?
Traffic
Total requests, unique IPs, unique URLs, bot requests and bandwidth, with tabs for IPs, URLs, bots and status codes.
PHP
Top requested pages, running PHP processes and slow pages from the PHP slow log.
MySQL
Connections, queries per second, how much database memory is in use, running queries and the slow query log.
PageSpeed
Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices and SEO scores for mobile and desktop, with history.

LIMITS AND PLANS
What Are the Limits?
Requests, not people
It counts requests and unique IPs, not visitors or sessions the way a browser script does. Requests answered by a CDN or edge cache never reach the server, so they are not counted.
Not on Docker sites
The Traffic, PHP and MySQL tabs do not appear for sites that run in containers.
Up to 7 days
Traffic data covers up to the last 7 days.
PageSpeed pacing
One PageSpeed scan per site every 10 minutes, and up to 30 scans per team each hour.
Plans
Traffic, PHP and MySQL: paid plans. PageSpeed: every plan.
Frequently Asked Questions
What people ask about Site Insights on xCloud.
What is Site Insights in xCloud?
Site Insights is a per-site analytics page with three tabs: Traffic, PHP and MySQL. It reads data on the server, so it shows requests, bots, bandwidth, slow pages and slow queries without a tracking script.

Open the site, go to Site Monitoring, then Page Speed. You see Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices and SEO scores for mobile and desktop, and a history of past scans.
