Web Site Activity via Google Analytics

This past week I logged into Google Analytics to see what my stats had been for December, and watched for quite a while!

 

It showed 4 people were on my site and continued to tell me what they were looking at, and what part of the country they were from.   I know I cannot watch 24/7, but sure was interesting watching their movements.    Evidently, they did not sign up on my site, as I showed no new web visitors, and none that were already signed up were logged in.   (my web site now has a "chat" feature, and shows me when someone is on my site that is signed up.)

 

This information always enlightens me as to what keywords I need to continue to use for future business!

Nina Hollander I don't do this often, and this was the first time I saw so many on my site at the same time.   Took ten minutes.

Hi Joan - it can be interesting and then it can be a bit overwhelming at times.  A lot of information.  Now about those who are interested enough to make contact..  And there's where connections start...

Good morning Joan - I keep the Google Analytics page up on my computer.  It is very helpful.

Honestly, it is getting harder and harder to figure what will motivate a buyer to use the site.

Thank you very much, Joan, for sharing this experience.

This is a good topic for a blog series.

Michael Jacobs when you first start observing Google Analytics, there IS a lot of information, but now after reviewing for a few years, I watch certain areas closer, and is interesting.  I would like to turn more of these "viewers".

Are you able to connect with them?  I have looked at the analytics before, but it didn't seem beneficial other than knowing that my target audience was being engaged, which I guess is worth something.

Google Analytics is a fun way to see what goes on behind the scenes of our websites.  There's a lot to learn and it can be quite helpful.

Brian England unless they sign into my site, I don't know who it is.   BUT, it does tell me how they found my site, and that is beneficial.
