Google Analytics

[TshirtFrank]

Hi All,

I just recently started using Google Analytics for some of my blogger blogs that don't have a way to track traffic. For those of you that dont use it, it is a simple way to track the traffic, keywords and click through rates on your webpages that dont have built in metrics. I started using it on a "free" website that I got with a program, and have expanded its use from there. It is an awesome tool and I would highly recommend in to everyone.

Does anyone else use this system and do you have any insider tips?

Thanks!

If you have a website that you are able to use this, it is certainly essential. I think it is great that you are starting to use it TSF! :)

I have recently set up a website and fell in love in Google Analytics. It is the best tool to use to keep track of you traffic. It is also good to let you know which keywords will do good in PPC.

It really is a great tool to use. Expecially if you have quite a few blogs going at once or even websites. Helps to keep you more focused as Gridella mentioned in tracking keywords to know if these are working :)

I agree, it is a great tool to use. Who would have though something free could be so useful?

That's what is nice about using forums. Members sharing useful tools and all the free ways of building your business online. You will find so much information throughout all the forums you join that at times you may get overwhelmed.

I know myself... I tend to favorite stuff.... sometimes I either don't go back to it, or it takes me a bit to get back... LOL I try once or twice a month to clean that up a bit.... =)

I think a lot of us can relate to doing that KitKat!

I was wondering if anyone has used Google analytics with Blogger. I can install the code but for some reason it will not transmit data. Analytics says that it is installed correctly but I can't get it to work. Anyone have expirience with this?

Thanks!

Forum 2, that is so, SO true! I had never heard of this tool before; I intend to check it out for sure. TSF, thank you so much for sharing!
