Request MeetingIn June, we discussed how to effectively leverage Google Analytics for your website. Due to the sheer volume and robustness of data provided by Google Analytics, small business owners can often get lost amongst the data and reports. Today, we launch a three-part series that dives further into how to best use, read, and analyze your Google Analytics data.
Is your business cyclical? Does it spike on certain months of the year instead of maintaining steady growth or traffic? Most businesses see patterns in their traffic. Your business's activity depends on everything from the time of the year to upcoming holidays and breaks in school attendance to even events on local and national news. A slight decrease in traffic doesn't necessarily mean bad news -- it just means a trend is developing. Identifying trends is vital to the success of your online marketing initiatives. To clearly view your business's progress and how it's growing in more than a month-by-month analysis, Google Analytics can give you breakdowns of your website's activity over time, no matter how to want to measure it.
Google Analytics has a wide variety of features and reports for measuring your data by time. Dedicate a period of your week or month just to review your website's traffic, and be sure to click around through the various features. You never know what way of viewing your data will give you surprising insight into your business. If you want to learn more about how to customize Analytics reports and sorting your data, contact us.
Ben has possessed a passion for technology since a very young age. He was always enamored with the newest gadget and software packages. At age 11, Ben began learning about website design and constructed his own website. By age 13, he had designed and published his first website for a corporate client. As Ben grew both in skill and experience, he found a recurring theme that small businesses' needs were not being met with affordable technology and marketing solutions.
In response to that opportunity, Ben founded Igniting Business LLC to meet his clients' growing needs.
