Analytics & Statistics Assistance

Google Analytics is a statistical tool which is free and can be used to measure your website traffic as well as monitor user experience on your site. Google provides this tool for many reasons, one of which is that it is likely as beneficial for them, as it is for you. They too want to measure user engagement on your site; such as how many people visit, where they go on the website, how long they spend there, and so on. They use this information to better their search engine results, understand your site, improve their advertising programs and more. Analytics also provides vast information on the users location and demographics of your site visitors which allows you to follow a user’s navigational path through your site. This allows you to set certain pages or actions as ‘goals’ to help you track conversions such as form fills and certain clicks or page visits. For instance, you might consider a download of a particular document, a conversion. This would typically be something that’s hard to track, but not with the power of Analytics.

When setting up a free Google Analytics account, you will be provided with a small piece of code which should be installed on the entire website. This piece of JavaScript code will track users and their activity reporting everything back to Google Analytics, which will store, indefinitely, all of this data and allow you to sort through it inside the Analytics panel. Your webmaster will need to install this piece of code into your website back-end coding and you can set additional users with access permission so that they too can monitor your website traffic. Most marketing companies, while working with you, will want to have at minimum read-access to this panel, as well as your Google Webmaster Tools panel.
