Understanding Google Analytics and regularly reviewing the activity reports is one of the most important things you can do for your business as it tells you whats working and what is not working in your overall digital marketing efforts. It can help you clearly define and target where and how you should spend your time in attracting new business.

Every business owner has pressing questions which include;

  • What do you see when you Google yourself or your business online?
  • How do your potential customers find your business website?
  • Who is visiting your website, and when?
  • What are they looking at when they visit?
  • How much is a click worth to you?
  • How long are website visitors staying on your site?
  • Which pages or blogs are most popular or drive the most lead conversions?

November’s Lunch Lady event went over how to answer these questions as we took a deep dive into the world of Google Analytics!

  • We reviewed some of the most important steps to improving and setting up your Google Analytics, Webmaster Tools, and Search Console properties and showed you how to connect them to your Google Ads account if you have one.
  • We also covered how to set-up regular reports that focus on just the information important to you, and get them delivered to your inbox as often as you’d like.

Learning to navigate Google Analytics is one of the most important things you can do for your business.
