How to Interpret Scan Analytics Data
High Scans, Low Engagement
Your QR code is well-placed and noticed, but your landing page isn't compelling. Improve content relevance, page speed, or offer clarity.
Increasing Return Rate
Users find your content valuable enough to come back. Consider adding exclusive content, loyalty rewards, or regular updates.
Device Concentration
If 80%+ scans come from one device type, ensure your landing page is perfectly optimized for that specific platform.
Peak Time Patterns
Consistent peak times indicate when your audience is most receptive. Schedule promotional campaigns during these windows.
