Real-Time reporting is a great tool for monitoring website
traffic as it happens. This real-time report will show you who is on your site
at that very moment, where they came from, their geographic location and what
pages they're browsing.
Real-time is particularly useful for gauging how a social
media post, email or campaign is performing, tracking the immediate impact of
traffic to your site.
To see Real-Time reporting, click on Real-Time and then
Overview in the left hand navigation bar.
Overview will give you most of the
information on one dashboard but you can drill down a little deeper by
selecting one of the other reports under Real-Time, including Locations,
Traffic Sources, Content, Events, and Conversions.
WHY SHOULD YOU
MONITOR GOOGLE ANALYTICS?
If you have a website, more than likely you’ve wondered
where do my visitors come from? How do people know I exist? You might even want
to know how many visits you get each day/ month. This is the type of
information you can get for free from Google Analytics Reporting. You should be
monitoring this information at least monthly to know how better to market your
website.
WHAT ARE THE BASICS
OF THE GOOGLE ANALYTICS DASHBOARD?
While you could watch hours of video tutorials and spend
days trying to navigate through the Google Analytics Dashboard, there really
are some simple areas that are key to monitoring. Google breaks down your analytics
reporting to what they call the ABC’s of analytics.
• A –
Acquisition This means – where did your visitors come from?
• B –
Behavior This means – what did your visitors do when they were on your website?
• C –
Conversion This means – did the visitor convert and reach a goal that you’ve
create?
There’s also an area (Audience) that gives you the
demographic of your visitors. This information is what companies base their
entire marketing strategies on – and you’re missing this if you’re not
monitoring your Google Analytics.
HOW TO UNDERSTAND THE
REPORTS & INFORMATION
Learning where your traffic comes from can help you better
understand where to spend your time.
Knowing what pages they visited on your
website can help you better understand what content they’re looking for and how
to write new content. Monitoring if a goal was reached can help you see if your
Call to Action is even working or if you’re missing opportunities. Watch the
video above to learn more about this understanding.
HOW TO USE &
APPLY THE INFORMATION
Now what do you do with all of the information that you’ve
seen inside of the Google Analytics Dashboard?
It’s time to monitor and evaluate – change and monitor more.
You should take every bit of information you can gather through Google Analytics
and make changes to your marketing strategy.
After a short while you should be
able to see your bounce rate lower, your traffic increase and your goals
getting reached consistently. This is the key to understanding Google Analytics
– each statistic and number is a piece of the puzzle. Put these pieces together
and out rank ANYONE in your industry!!
