Visitor Tracking: The Webmaster’s Most Important Thing To Do Right Now
Writing by Nick Stamoulis on Tuesday, 11 of March , 2008 at 12:55 pm
What is the most important thing for webmasters to focus on? It is Search Engine Optimization, social media marketing, blogging, article marketing, pay per clicking advertising, directory submissions?
In my view, the most important thing to be doing is none of those. Rather, the most important thing for all webmasters serious about making money online is tracking. You really need to track your visitors, clicks, conversions, and other key data. If you aren’t tracking what is going on at your website and what your visitors are up to then you don’t know what you need improvement on.
Google Analytics makes tracking very easy. You simply insert the Google Analytics code on your website and set some goals and let the software tell you what is happening. You can track visitors, conversions, and your goals all in one system. Unless you use some kind of analytics or tracking service, you can’t know how your PPC is converting sales or whether your content is closing the sale. When you set your tracking in place then you’ll know the areas where you need improvement.
