What is the most important digital property that belongs only to your business? Your <\/strong>website<\/strong><\/a>, of course! <\/strong>You would hope that your marketing team has a solid grip on everything that goes on within your site and would quickly catch anything important falling between the cracks. They should be paying close attention to the data around who is visiting your site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In case they aren\u2019t on top of this, they can utilize one of the most common free tools out there – they can find out who is visiting your website, how they are behaving once there, and what breadcrumbs they are leaving behind is with Google Analytics<\/em><\/strong><\/a> <\/em><\/strong>data<\/strong>. And a good rule of thumb is to check the dashboard at least once a week. The big question is, are your marketers or analysts checking the data consistently? Do they know how to spot something odd with their website\u2019s traffic and correct it \u2013 fast?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In most cases, the answer is \u201cNo\u201d!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two scenarios that I have encountered when reviewing a third-party website that both have a situation involving spam that demonstrates the value of having Google Analytics data available for use \u2013<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One client failed to see a sudden hike ten times the amount of normal website traffic from a single source in just one day. The traffic turned out to be bogus, and the third-party sender turned out to be fake. Their website was getting spam traffic! We had to quickly go in and update the outdated WordPress plugins and block the spammers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In another case, we found that more than \u2154 of the traffic from the client\u2019s organic channels (Google, Bing, etc.) was going to a spam page. This page didn\u2019t even exist on the client\u2019s website. It took the user to an unknown destination, and the client lost potential good-quality traffic<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It helps to take an investigative approach<\/strong> to your website data and ask the right questions about your website statistics. Google Analytics is an excellent and free resource that allows you to get a skin-deep analysis of your visitor data and catch errors easily \u2013 before it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now is a great time to collaborate with your marketing team and set up performance metrics for your digital campaigns. Start by setting up the landing pages as \u201cEvents\u201d and the call-to-action buttons on your website as \u201cConversions\u201d in your Google Analytics dashboard. These are the two most important metrics that can help you gauge the performance of your marketing campaigns. Monitor them on a bi-weekly basis and track their progress. By staying on top of the analytics you will be able to correct and realign your campaigns without wasting time and money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
