Web analytics provide those benchmarks. Analytics are indicators that reflect the potential of your website. As Internet professionals, we all know that we can\u2019t manage what we can\u2019t measure, and that goes to say, you can\u2019t monetize it either.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_would_you_know_if_your_site_is_underperforming\"><\/span>How would you know if your site is underperforming?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Is it as simple as tracking unique visitors or page views? Not really. There can be an endless number of other performance indicators that define and reflect the success, or lack thereof, of a particular campaign. Are you sending out direct mail? Doing email broadcasts? Advertising in print media? Running pay per click (PPC) ads? Are these tied to your website? If you\u2019re a solutions provider, analytics analysis helps both you and your customers by defining opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing how a visitor arrived at your website, when they arrived and what they did on your site is invaluable. Aligning that data should define the scope of future marketing campaigns.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_important_to_your_organization\"><\/span>What\u2019s important to your organization?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This all starts with what\u2019s important to you. Tie that in to your analytics metrics. Decide what key indicators best align with the objectives of your campaigns. Come up with a list of a few basic indicators that will reflect the most insight.<\/p>\n<p>One key indicator could be how many visitors it takes to achieve your goal. If that goal is for visitors to purchase product directly from your website, conversion factors are important measurements. If your goal is to generate leads or brand awareness, would poor page design or navigation hurt?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/unbounce.com\/landing-page-articles\/what-is-a-landing-page\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Landing pages<\/a> are immensely important, especially those that draw the most traffic to your site via keywords or extended keyword phrases.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tweaking_your_website\"><\/span>Tweaking your website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>What typically happens when a visitor first lands on your website \u2013 first impressions? \u00a0If you draw 100 unique visitors to your main landing page daily, but only two click through to your shopping cart, could tweaking your landing page improve your response rates, and ultimately the number of conversions?<\/p>\n<p>Are some pages on your website not attracting visitors at all? If not, it\u2019s probably time to update those pages. Likewise, if viewers are highly engaged in a specific content area of your website, would linking other parts of your site to that content help?<\/p>\n<p>First, it\u2019s crucially important to ensure that your website\u2019s content is created by a professional who sees the \u201cbig picture.\u201d Does your site have compelling marketing content that motivates your customers to buy?<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"My_recommendation\"><\/span>My recommendation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Start with keyword analysis. Enter the keyword or extended keyword phrases that attract the most visitors to your site. Take notice of the results pages, specifically your competitors\u2019 sites. If their sites rank higher in SERPS than yours, what is different between the sites? Is it their content? Their navigation? Their Meta tags?<\/p>\n<p>Displaying higher in search engine results pages dramatically improves website performance. Take that information and your analytics analysis to shape and redefine your site for success.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prolimehost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/08\/unnamed-e1408122780935.jpg\" alt=\"ProlimeHost Cheap Dedicated Servers\" width=\"400\" height=\"80\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"BROUGHT_TO_YOU_BY_PROLIMEHOST\"><\/span>BROUGHT TO YOU BY PROLIMEHOST<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>We\u2019ve been in the web hosting industry for over a decade, helping hundreds of clients succeed in what they do best and that\u2019s running their business.
