| Google Analytics for Blogger now in private beta | | 2008-05-08 04:00:01 | | Several weeks back at South by Southwest, Jeff Veen announced our new Google Analytics for Blogger reporting interface. Currently available only in private beta, this product is a collaboration of several teams and marks the transition of Measure Map customers to a new Google Analytics interface designed specifically for Blogger users.Here's what Jeff had to say:"Many of you may remember when Google acquired Measure Map, our analytics product for blogs. When we came to Google, our first job was to take the experience of providing clear, accessible reports, coupled with powerful tools for analysis, and apply it to Google's already robust Analytics product. The result of that collaboration launched last May, in the redesigned Google Analytics interface.Since then the team has been hard at work fulfilling our original promise: to help bloggers understand the impact that their blogs are having on the world. To that end, we've rebuilt Measure Map as an integrated feature of both Google Anal | | By: Blogging for Blogs | | |

I think by now a lot of people have heard about google’s free service to track information about your website. Perhaps you even already have it installed. I think most people would agree that statistics are important. That and its just fun to see the number of visitors, especially when they are increasing.

Es la mejor forma de rastrear de donde vienen tus vistas y el numero verdadero de ellas. Muchas personas confian en contadores web para conocer el numero de visitas que tienen, estos suelen tener problemas por que muchas veces cuentan de mal el numero de visitantes, muchos incluso cuentan como visitas a los motores de busqueda, Por EJ cuado la araña de google te encuetra generean en estos contadores de visita.
Ver las paginas de una web realmente se llama impresion de pagina(cada vez que una web de tu dominio se crea para ser vizualizada en un browser se genera una impresion) y estas no son el numero de visitas reales

| Analytics Glossary: Parameters | | 2008-03-06 13:00:00 | | Parameters:These are located in the URL immediately after a question mark and followed by an equal sign and a return value, known as name=value. Parameters indicate to a database what page a user is viewing. For example, www.mysite.com/product/widget.aspx?=1234. Here, widget is the product and 1234 is the product identifier.This comes up a lot when using search functions embedded in websites. Be sure if you're going to share the link with a customer or through a bulk email campaign to copy everything after the question mark. Sometimes if you just paste a link into an email or document and rely on the auto hyper link feature to add the link, it won't add anything after the question mark. Be sure to use the menus of the program to insert the correct URL into the hyper link.____Glossary Definition From Website Magazine, February 2008. | | By: Print This! | | |

Here at PsPrint that's what we usually say to describe the steps a consumer has to go through to place an order. It's always a good idea to review your conversion funnel every year or so to make sure that the UI (user interface) is easy to understand and isn't garbled with useless information or unnecessary steps. Remember that the easier it is to convert, the more likely the conversion is.____Glossary Definition From Website Magazine, February 2008. | | By: Print This! | | |

Lets say your Google Analytics code somehow got on another site and your stats were getting tainted with irrelevant data. No problem.

| Analiza tu blog con Google Analytics | | 2008-01-31 01:30:00 | | Bueno, la verdad es que el mundo del marketing siempre ha sido algo desconocido para mí.A veces, hacemos un post, lo terminamos, quedamos satisfechos y sin embargo no tiene éxito. Otros nos parecen malos y tienen aceptación. De lo que se deduce: "Que no todos somos tenemos los mismos gustos".¿Para que sirve Google Analytics? pues aparte de saber el número de visitas, de donde provienen, a donde van, que páginas del blogs visitan, en que páginas abandonan el blog, países y ciudades de origen, que buscadores usan, el tiempo que están en cada página y otras muchas cosas más.Para mí lo más sorprendente son las frases que ponen en los buscadores las personas y a través de que palabras llegan a nuestras páginas.Vale la pena probarlo, te sorprenderás. Pincha aquí: Google Analytics.

Air grabs the data from Google Analystics for you (no need to visit the site directly) and shows you the data in graphical format. All the stats from GA are available for you, and the information can be exported to PDF, Excel or XML formats.

| Widget Analytics Meets Widget Audience Measurement | | 2008-01-12 18:30:00 | | "What's a Widget Worth?" The article focused on the fact that social networks are exploding in growth, but that the software development community contributing to fuel this growth is not getting a piece of the revenue that their applications and widgets are helping to support. At the forefront of the article was the announcement that comScore is revamping its widget usage data report to offer more comprehensive coverage. They will begin to account for widgets built with JavaScript (in addition to Flash), which will open up the capability to measure widgets on one of the hottest social networks on the Web, Facebook.

| Email Marketing Strategy With Google Analytics Support | | 2008-01-07 10:26:00 | | Gary Kraeger, Zrinity President: "These customers should be sent more potential sales immediately within a receipt, invoice, quote, etc. If they purchased a jacket, then send an offer for gloves, in real time, within the receipt. If they chose "Mr." send them an offer for male gloves or glove warmers, or both. If you don't currently employ this type of behavioral, a.k.a. transactional, email marketing (http://www.zrinity.com/Zpedia/transactional_email.cfm), then don't go overboard spending money on fancy behavioral software. Use your eyes and other easy to implement tools to quantify metrics, then get fancy after this has been achieved"

| Google Analytics se actualiza | | 2007-12-13 08:22:49 | | Hace mucho tiempo que utilizo Google Analytics para analizar el flujo de visitas que recibo en Santuario Atziluth y la verdad es que es muy completo y gratis. Puedes ver las visitas unos días determinados o meses completos, de qué ciudad y país provienen las visitas, un gráfico indicándote las entradas de tu blog más visitadas incluso un gráfico donde te muestra si las vías de entrada a tu blog son directas, de buscadores o de sitios webs de referencia.Ahora renueva una parte de su estrutura para poder comparar dos rangos de fechas en los múltiples gráficos que dispone. Por lo visto sobre las 4:00 de la madrugada de hoy empezaron los cambios ya que estuve haciendo varias pruebas y al entrar en Google Analytics estaba toda la web sin formato o algunas opciones como la fecha a analizar no terminaban de cargar.

| Google Analytics and Google AdWords | | 2007-12-07 20:31:00 | | Google provides a quick, effective and hassle-free way for merchants to advertise their products and services in the Internet through Google AdSense, a cost-per click and cost-per impression advertising service, where ads are displayed along search and content sites and search results done in the Google network. Merchants will be charged when online users click on the ads that are shown. Keywords are chosen in which the ads will appear, and the merchants will specify on how much they are willing to shell out for each click.There are various benefits that advertisers can get from utilizing Google AdWords. Unlike other online advertising channels, AdWords enables the advertiser to do away with deadlines and contracts. Google's kind of advertising does not ask prepayment and packages. It is by this method that merchants can manage their advertising campaigns with their preferred performance metrics.The service gives maximum exposure for advertisers due to the sheer number of visitors acquired by the various sites included in the Google network. Advertisements are displayed along search and content sites and products in audience comprising about 80% Internet users in the U.S. Ads appear beside search results or occupying a space in a results page a user navigates through to get to a site directory.Google's own electronic mail service, Gmail, also features the ads.To make the service more advantageous for advertisers, AdWords has integrated with Google Analytics. Google Analytics informs advertisers information such as the channels to which online visitors located their ads and the manner they react and interact with the site. The service enables merchants gain more visitors to their pages. Google Analytics also monitors the activities of merchants that are not related to AdWords, without any charge at all. With Analytics, one can create marketing campaigns that are target-centered and ROI-driven.The initial announcement that Google is offering this service alongside A | | By: All of Adsense | | |

However, simply putting up a website and hoping for the best just isn’t enough. It’s essential to track your site’s traffic. This will let you know which marketing campaigns are working. For example, is your new website copy helping you make sales, or causing people to leave your site right away? Without tracking your visitors, you’ll never know.

| Me gané un libro de Google Analytics | | 2007-11-16 12:14:00 | | Esta entrada es simplemente para agradecerle a David Yanover de la red de blogs Inicio Global por el premio, un e-book titulado Google Analytics Short Cut, de O’Reilly Media.David le dió vida al concurso hace un mes atrás en Blog Daddy pero no tuvo mucha difusión, en parte creo yo que fue porque se trata de un libro en inglés y sobre un tema que para algunos puede resultar muy interesante y para otros no tanto.

| Google Analytics adding search sorting, outbound link checking | | 2007-10-18 19:09:00 | | Earlier today Google unveiled some new and upcoming features being added to their Analytics service at the eMetrics Summit in Washington, D.C. Site owners will soon be getting a way to see what their users are searching for within the site, potentially making it easier for them to reorganize, or prioritize the what's on the page. Users will also have their choice of several third-party search tools that work with the new search analytics, along with Google Custom Search, Google Mini, and Google's enterprise search appliance.The service is also rolling out a new "Events Tracking" section for keeping tabs on all sorts of user interaction including widgets, embedded movies, and outbound links--the links that take visitors off your site. The latter of which has been available for some time from services like CrazyEgg and MyBlogLog ClickTagging, but a welcome addition nonetheless. The other cool thing is that the new JavaScript code will update automatically with any additional features Google decides to add later on down the line.

| Google Analytics in AIR | | 2007-09-25 15:35:00 | | This unofficial AIR version of Google Analytics delivers the functionality of browser-based Google Analytics but with greater usability and a richer experience. If you haven’t heard of AIR (once named “Apollo”), it’s a platform developed by Adobe that enables web developers to deploy their web services outside of the browser so they function more like traditional applications. This is the first AIR program that I have tested that really gets me excited about the platform. As a beta program, it’s not perfect (I ran into a few errors), but overall it has been executed very well. It’s also nice to see such a full-functional program developed using someone else’s API (in this case, Google’s).
