How Can Google Analytics Help Your Business?
In this article, we’ll walk you through:
- Several ways Google Analytics gives you a better overview of your website visitors
- How that can help your business grow
Google Analytics:
1. Tells You Who is Visiting Your Site
Knowing the demographics of your site’s visitors can help you in several different ways. For example, Google Analytics gives us geographical data on where your traffic is coming from.
Let’s say you’ve sent a postcard to several specific areas in the city. The postcard’s focus is to drive traffic to the website, promising a special promotion or discount. Using Google Analytics, we can track precisely where the traffic is coming from. This can help you determine if you should mail to that area in the future.
2. Suggests Improvements You Can Make
Google Analytics provides a massive amount of data, giving us visibility regarding what works well (and not-so-well) on your site. Among other things, it lets us track the number of visits made to each page of your website, as well as the time spent on each page. Google Analytics can also provide a detailed list of the most popular words and phrases on your site. Knowing what your visitors are searching tells us how to retool your web content to inform customers and meet their needs.
3. Shows How Your Website is Growing
In addition to demographics and usage data, Google Analytics allows us to track monthly hits and compare traffic throughout your site’s history. Over time, we can see which page helps most people find your website, which page they leave from, and allows us to list your most visited pages. This data helps us to show relevant information to your users – when and where they need it most.
----------
Google Analytics is a powerful tool to track and understand your website traffic. It can help your users to truly benefit from your site content. And, as a result, you may reach more customers.
