While overall pageviews held steady at 5,002,384 the increase in views per user (+4.5%) and a 17.6% boost in average session duration suggest more meaningful on-site interactions.

Matomo Platform Usage Trends

61 Matomo users have been added to the platform they generated 457 total visits to analytics.armymwr.comup 49.3% from the previous period indicating growing platform adoption. These visits included 358 new sessions and 3,396 pageviews (↑32.9%). On average, users spent 5 minutes and 37 seconds analyzing data.

Army Answers

  • Army Answers received 201 total questions this period
  • Business and Recreation (BRD): 125 questions
  • Child and Youth Services (CYS): 19 questions
  • Army Community Services (ACS): 14 questions
  • Support Services (SS): 2 questions
  • Other categories: 41 questions

Graduation-related questions made up a notable portion of Army Answers submissions this quarter, with users asking about ceremony dates, locations, ticketing, photos, livestream availability, and how to write letters to trainees. Many inquiries came from family members seeking timely and specific details, often close to the event dates. This indicates gaps in awareness or accessibility of official graduation information, especially for non-military family members.

Recommendation:

  • Create a centralized, easy-to-find “Graduation Info Hub” on MWR and installation websites. This page should include:
  • Ceremony schedules by installation
  • Venue directions and access instructions
  • Ticketing and guest policies
  • Photo and livestream access
  • FAQs tailored for family members
