Example
Your store had 8,500 total sessions in June, with 5,100 sessions including at least one product view, producing a 60% Session View Product Rate.
| Device | Total Sessions | Sessions with Product View | Rate |
|---|
| Mobile | 5,100 | 2,856 | 56% |
| Desktop | 2,890 | 1,907 | 66% |
| Tablet | 510 | 337 | 66% |
How It Works
Session View Product Rate counts unique sessions where the visitor viewed at least one product detail page, then divides by total sessions. Unlike PV to VC Rate which measures page-level conversion, this metric measures session-level engagement—whether a visitor explored any products during their visit.
When to Use

| Measuring product discovery | Track what percentage of visitors engage with products |
| Comparing device experiences | Identify if mobile visitors struggle to find products |
| Evaluating landing pages | Low rate from specific pages suggests poor product visibility |
| Assessing traffic quality | High-quality traffic sources should have higher product view rates |
| Metric | Relationship |

| Unique Sessions | Denominator measuring total sessions |
