1.4
Low pages-per-session consistent with high bounce rate; users landing on a specific doc and leaving without deeper navigation.
Avg Visit Duration (7d)
40 seconds
Short session time suggests quick reference lookups rather than extended reading, though some pages like /walrus-sites/tutorial show 100% scroll depth.
Visitors (30d)
60,827
The 30d period shows significantly lower bounce rate (68%) and higher views/visit (1.61), suggesting older traffic cohorts engaged more deeply.
Blob storage and data management questions dominated Kapa activity this week, accounting for 172 of 389 total questions, while a high-traffic week on docs.wal.app saw strong engagement with Walrus Sites content but an 81% bounce rate signaling shallow exploration for most visitors. Off-topic and spam queries represent 60 questions—roughly 15% of all chatbot interactions—indicating a need for input filtering to protect support quality metrics.

Traffic Overview

docs.wal.app had 12,036 visitors and 19,569 pageviews over the last 7 days (Apr 10–16, 2026), with a bounce rate of 81% and average session duration of 40 seconds. Traffic grew steadily throughout the week, rising from 1,222 visitors on Apr 10 to 2,129 on Apr 16—a 74% increase. The vast majority of traffic (95%) arrives via direct or unknown sources. The homepage and Walrus Sites intro pages dominate consumption, indicating strong top-of-funnel interest.

Steady daily traffic growth throughout the week

Visitors grew from 1,222 on Apr 10 to 2,129 on Apr 16 (+74%), with pageviews rising from 1,760 to 3,716 (+111%). The acceleration in pageviews outpacing visitor growth suggests returning or deeper-browsing users increasing toward week-end.

Bounce rate improving over longer time horizons

7d bounce rate is 81% vs 68% over 30d, and views/visit improves from 1.4 (7d) to 1.61 (30d). This suggests the recent traffic cohort is less engaged than historical visitors — possibly driven by new top-of-funnel arrivals from announcements or campaigns.

Duplicate legacy HTML URLs splitting Walrus Sites traffic

Both /walrus-sites/intro and /walrus-sites/intro.html each received ~2,067–2,070 visitors, and similarly /walrus-sites/tutorial and /walrus-sites/tutorial.html each got 23 visitors. These duplicates split SEO value and analytics; canonical redirects should be implemented.

ChatGPT referrals show disproportionately high engagement

chatgpt.com visitors average 329s session duration vs the site average of 40s — over 8x longer. AI-referred users arrive with specific questions and explore docs thoroughly, making this a high-quality traffic source worth monitoring as AI assistant usage grows.

Operator and advanced content earns deep scroll engagement

Pages like /docs/getting-started/advanced-setup (80% scroll), /docs/system-overview/core-concepts (70%), and /docs/operator-guide/storage-nodes (66%) attract smaller but highly engaged audiences. Investing in this content tier could improve retention for technical users.

Notable Takeaways

Spam and off-topic queries consume 15% of all chatbot capacity

60 out of 389 Kapa questions classified as off-topic or unintelligible

Unfiltered spam is materially distorting support metrics and consuming chatbot response budget that should serve real developers.

Duplicate legacy URLs are splitting nearly half of Walrus Sites traffic

/walrus-sites/intro and /walrus-sites/intro.html each received ~2,070 visitors; /walrus-sites/tutorial and /walrus-sites/tutorial.html each received 23 visitors

Split traffic dilutes SEO value and makes analytics unreliable for the most-visited content on the site.

ChatGPT-referred users are dramatically more engaged than average

329s average session duration from chatgpt.com vs 40s site average

AI assistant referrals deliver the highest-quality traffic, making Kapa answer quality a direct lever on deep documentation engagement.

Getting Started page loses most visitors before key content

/docs/getting-started has 1,249 visitors but only 33% scroll depth

The majority of new users are abandoning the primary onboarding page before reaching actionable instructions, compounding the high volume of basic blob storage questions in Kapa.

Developer Pain Point Themes

Blob storage operations dominate this week's questions, followed by a high volume of off-topic/spam traffic and recurring questions on Walrus Sites deployment, storage costs, and network configuration. Immediate priorities are improving storage quickstart documentation and implementing spam filtering.

#1 172 questions high priority

Restructure Getting Started page with progressive disclosure and clear CTAs

Rewrite /docs/getting-started to surface blob upload instructions in the first scroll viewport.

1,249 visitors are abandoning at 33% scroll depth, directly causing the 172 blob storage questions in Kapa.

↑ Higher scroll completion should reduce repeat basic blob questions and improve new-user activation rate.
The Getting Started page (https://docs.wal.app/docs/getting-started.md) describes Walrus abstractly but does not surface blob upload instructions in the first viewport; progressive disclosure and clear CTAs are still absent.

Publish unified Blob Storage Quickstart consolidating CLI, HTTP API, and SDK paths

Create a single page covering walrus store, PUT /v1/blobs, and TypeScript SDK writeBlob with working examples.

Blob storage is the top Kapa theme at 172 questions and spans four distinct interfaces with no single reference.

↑ A consolidated quickstart reduces repetitive chatbot queries and gives developers a single bookmark-worthy reference.
Separate pages exist for CLI storing blobs (https://docs.wal.app/docs/walrus-client/storing-blobs.md), HTTP API storing blobs (https://docs.wal.app/docs/http-api/storing-blobs.md), and the TypeScript SDK (https://docs.wal.app/docs/typescript-sdk/sdks.md), but no single unified quickstart page consolidates all three paths with side-by-side working examples.

Create Walrus Sites FAQ covering install, deploy, update, and object ID persistence

Write a concise FAQ page addressing site-builder install, deploy vs update commands, ws-resources.json object_id handling, and portal access.

55 Kapa questions on Sites deployment and a dedicated install page at only 54% scroll depth show unmet information needs.

↑ Reduces repeat Sites deployment questions in Kapa and improves completion rate on the install guide page.
Individual pages cover installing the site builder (https://docs.wal.app/docs/sites/getting-started/installing-the-site-builder.md), publishing (https://docs.wal.app/docs/sites/getting-started/publishing-your-first-site.md), and site configuration including ws-resources.json (https://docs.wal.app/docs/sites/configuration/site-configuration.md), but no consolidated FAQ page addressing all these topics together exists.

Add dedicated Network Reference page consolidating mainnet and testnet IDs, endpoints, and config snippets

Create a single reference page with all package IDs, system object addresses, aggregator/publisher URLs, and client_config.yaml examples for both networks.

26 Kapa questions ask for specific network addresses and config files that are currently scattered across multiple pages.

↑ Developers can unblock themselves with a single lookup rather than multi-page searches or chatbot queries.
Available Networks (https://docs.wal.app/docs/system-overview/available-networks.md) and Public Aggregators and Publishers (https://docs.wal.app/docs/system-overview/public-aggregators-and-publishers.md) exist separately, but no single dedicated reference page consolidates all package IDs, system object addresses, aggregator/publisher URLs, and client_config.yaml snippets for both networks.

28 Kapa questions on pricing and a broad range of cost-related threads show developers cannot self-serve cost estimation.

↑ Reduces pricing questions in Kapa and helps teams make faster adoption decisions without needing chatbot support.
A Storage Costs page exists (https://docs.wal.app/docs/system-overview/storage-costs.md) and Quilt savings are covered (https://docs.wal.app/docs/system-overview/quilt.md), but no pricing FAQ with worked examples or a direct link to costcalculator.wal.app is documented.

60 off-topic questions represent 15% of weekly Kapa volume, distorting support metrics and wasting response budget.

↑ Cleaner signal in support analytics and lower per-question cost by eliminating spam from LLM processing queue.
There is no mention of any Kapa chatbot configuration, prompt filtering, or bot detection in the documentation pages.

Each legacy URL receives ~2,070 and 23 visitors respectively, splitting SEO equity and analytics signal.

↑ Consolidated traffic improves SEO ranking for Walrus Sites pages and simplifies analytics measurement.
