How to understand your Business Profile performance metrics?

Performance graph

This allows you to view the evolution of your performance metrics over time.

Use the date selector to view the data for longer or shorter time periods.
A shorter time period can be used to focus on performance at a specific time, for example, during a holiday season.
A longer time frame can give you indication of cyclical trends among your potential customers.
By turning on the “Compare” toggle from the date picker, comparisons are shown for the time series graph as well. By default, the metric in the scorecard shows a comparison with the previous period selected, even if you don't turn on the comparison toggle.

Note: Make sure to verify all your stores for complete information.

If multiple stores are added and some are unverified, an alert banner is shown and redirects to the Stores page to verify the store.
If only one store is linked and it's not verified, the tab will direct you to verify the store.
