The idea is that visitors are able to rate a single webpage regarding its usefulness. Imagine content block at the bottom of a page like “Was this page helpful? Yes / No”. Or like a 5-star-review widget.
What’s the best way to collect this information in Matomo with only the standard features?
The data ultimately should reveal how often each page was rated helpful/not helpful.
Some idea I have considered is ‘event tracking’, but it seems to me that there I only get to see how often ‘something’ was rated helpful/not helpful, but not what page. Also, visitors should be able to rate different pages differently (page 1 helpful, page 2 not helpful, page 3 no rating etc.) Also, Matomo’s ‘content tracking’ feature might be an option, but I have no experience with collecting this kind of data yet.
Another idea: track the “Actual rating” as a hit-level custom metric when sending the pageviev hit.
This way you can track the “Average rating” OVER TIME by doing “Actual rating” / “Page views”
(too bad that Matomo doesn’t support calculated metrics in the GUI, you’ll need to calculate them yourself elsewhere, e.g. in a dataviz tool such as Looker Studio)
