Analytics dashboard template

Atlas Web Analytics Dashboard Template

Atlas is a single-file HTML audience analytics dashboard styled as a monthly atlas: five plates covering territories, routes, content, timing, and newsletters.

Atlas is a single-file HTML dashboard template for a publication's audience desk. It presents a monthly readership survey for The Meridian Review as five plates covering territories, arrival routes, reading depth, seasonal timing, and newsletter performance. The June 2026 survey headline reports 1,284,600 sessions, a 45.9% engaged share, and 7.4 median engaged minutes, with figures fixed at compile time rather than streamed live.

Atlas opens its survey with Plate I, which maps seven reader territories as circles sized to session count, backed by a register table of markets, sessions, share, engagement, and change against May. Plate II draws the five acquisition routes as bands sized to session share, with a referrer register, engagement by route, and a dark traffic note covering 51,100 unreferred sessions. Plate III ranks the ten most-read pieces (471,000 sessions, 36.7% of the month) in a sortable table with scroll-depth contours at the 25, 50, 75, and 100 percent marks. Plate IV charts 28 days of sessions as a tide, with high water of 61,400 on Wednesday the 10th and hourly and weekday breakdowns. Plate V ledgers the newsletter expeditions with sends, open share, click share, and sessions landed, plus a marginalia feed and a reader annotation panel.

Who Atlas is for

Atlas gives the audience editor the monthly survey to compile, the territory change against the prior month to read, and the marginalia notes that travel with the atlas to write.

Atlas shows the editor-in-chief which pieces hold attention, through the sortable top-ten table and scroll-depth contours showing 88% average depth on the fiction issue.

Atlas lets the newsletter lead reconcile expedition landings (121,400 plus 52,700 plus 24,400 equals 198,500 sessions) against open and click share at 72 hours.

Atlas gives the growth or SEO analyst the routes of arrival, the +7.7% growth in dark traffic, and the evergreen pieces still drawing search sessions months after issue.

Atlas gives the publisher engaged share and engaged minutes as the house metrics to watch rather than raw pageviews.

When to reach for it

Atlas fits a publication that reports readership monthly instead of watching a live counter. The whole file is built around a fixed survey compiled at press time, which matches how an audience desk briefs editors.

Atlas serves a desk where engagement matters more than volume. Every plate carries engaged share or engaged minutes next to sessions, and the device split notes desktop engaged minutes run 1.8x mobile on long pieces.

Atlas anchors an editorial meeting. The five plates answer the five standing questions (where readers live, how they arrive, what holds them, when they come, what the letters brought home), so the deck is the dashboard.

Atlas rewards a team that wants a dashboard people read. The atlas framing, figure numbering, and marginalia make it a document an editor finishes, which a chart grid rarely achieves.

Frequently asked questions

Is Atlas a live analytics tool?

No, Atlas is not a live analytics tool. Atlas is a static single-file HTML template whose figures are fixed at a stated compile time, like a printed survey. You replace the sample data with your monthly analytics export and open the file in a browser. Nothing streams or syncs.

Does Atlas only fit a magazine or newsletter?

No, Atlas fits more than a magazine or newsletter. The sample is a review, but the five-plate structure fits any content property: a docs site, a blog network, or a podcast. Territories, routes, top content, timing, and email performance are universal audience questions.

What analytics data do I need to fill Atlas?

Filling Atlas takes sessions by country, sessions by channel with top referrers, per-article sessions with engaged time and scroll depth, daily sessions for the month, and newsletter send, open, and click numbers. GA4 plus an email platform export covers every plate.

Can I restyle the atlas look?

Yes, you can restyle the atlas look. The paper theme and the #2C5F8A accent are CSS variables, and the plate, figure, and legend labels are plain markup. You can keep the editorial structure while renaming every plate and figure to match your publication's voice.
