- Why is mobile traffic gaining traction? Lifestyle (want it now, whenever, wherever) Faster mobile internet speeds -Mobile phones able to handle rich content – replicate desktop experience, on a smaller screen Hence why Snap underwent the Mobile transformation, making the site responsive last year. http://www.computerworld.com.au/article/455603/aussie_mobile_data_traffic_increase_sixfold There are four drivers for data consumption growth across the networks. There are more users, more devices per user, faster network speeds and more media rich content.

- Although Adwords does auto tagging, you can create your own tags via the URL builder to track an ad hoc campaign e.g. Through a different website. If you want more information I can provide it to you after this training session.

- Behaviour Flow can help one to measure the conversion performance at the page level (not the element level). There are several ways that this can be used. E.g., on a contact us page, if you have a high dropoff rate this may be a good indication (they found what they want). However if there was a high drop out rate on a key landing page e.g. Franchise homepage, then this may be an area for improvement.
- Improving page speed has dual benefit, SEO & Conversion. The faster the page speed = better conversion. From an SEO point of view, you improve page speed by looking into the Speed Suggestions area
- Your ecommerce store may load in 1 second with only 1 visitors, but due to a cheap server hardware/environment, or an improperly coded website, that 1 second could bloat to 15 seconds with 20 visitors.

- Example of Quick Wins for Site Speed Caching: Turn it on and optimize in relation to your server environment and website. It is on Google’s pagespeed best practices Image optimization: The images that I have in this posted are jpegs. I optimized them significantly using Jpegmini.com Don’t use jpeg’s? Use Tinypng.org for png image files. Server: You should not run your ecommerce on a shared hosting environment. You should have a VPS, Dedicated, or Cloud server that is using quality hardware, with sufficient RAM, and preferably SSD (solid state hard drives)
- Extreme situations but that’s how important we should be viewing conversions. Topic of Conversion is vital for any website. All well and good to bring in traffic but if it’s not contributing to the bottom line.. At WCR although out focus is SEO, in fact we do much more. We incorporate Analytics and conversion to every page that we create e.g. City pages.
- Goals can be used to track anything that is of value to the company. This can include - Quote Submissions File Downloads Enquiry Forms Received Tracking of recently created pages The goal feature in GA is in fact very powerful and can be used to track very specific data that can yield valuable actionable insights e.g. If a listing website is guaranteeing a minimum of 50 leads for Snap a month (to a certain) we can track that. We will then place an intelligence event and set it so that if its <50 or >50 it is flagged.
- I’ll be taking you through a process in which you can create a simple goal (goal visits to a particular page).
- Shortcuts are used to generate Reporting Documents ADD SOLUTIONS GALLERY INTO THE TRAINING
- Move slide to correct section.
- Move slide to correct section. Jamie to show how?
- The solutions gallery contains in-product solutions (such as dashboards, custom reports and segments) to deepen your use of Google Analytics and accelerate your learning curve. Whether you’re a newbie or guru, they will help you learn more about your data through the power of Google Analytics. They’re like having your own GA guru!
- By the end of today we hope that you will be able to do the following
