I use Fathom Analytics for measuring my sites as it is privacy based and has a great dashboard.
One of the features of the dashboards is that it has keyboard shortcuts to switch between the sites being tracked. They are 1-9 and 0. 0 actually takes you back to the overall display showing all sites - except that it actually show 12 and has pagination if you are tracking more than 12 - which I do.

What I did not realise is that the 1-9 keys are assigned alphabetically - thank you Ash at Fathom Analytics for pointing that out to me. This site happens to be currently 13th in the list so I have no shortcut to get to the Analytics data.

But wait!

Turns out you can rename the accounts in the settings for each one.
And so I did - I added a 1. to the start of the simoncox.com name - and that puts it first alphabetically:
![Fathom Analytics dashboard with my account renamed from simoncox.com to 1. simoncox.com](/assets/img/content/2026-02-10-sort-ordering-for-your-fathom-analytics-accounts.png)

And that allows me to press the 1 key and pop up the data for my site. Later I will be assigning 2-9 to the other sites in the order I think I might want them in.
