    Should I use a scatter plot

    Hi, I've just started using Excel for a project and I would like to know what would be the best way to represent my data. I have multiple sites I've gathered data from, and for these sites, I want to know how the minutes of activity vary from day to day (throughout the year). I was thinking of making a scatter plot, but I'm not entirely sure how to go about this. I apologize if this may seem really simplistic, but any suggestions/ help would be greatly appreciated.

    Here's an example of what I have so far: example1.xlsx
    My list has much more sites and dates though.

    A bar chart would be more informative:
