Santa, NORAD, And Google Analytics
Serious webmasters will recognize that Google Analytics is the free web-based stats tracking package owned by Google. It’s about as essential as anything in the webmaster’s arsenal. Well, if you believe in Santa Claus then you might be interested to know that Google Analytics will be used to track Santa’s flight around the world on Christmas Eve. And who will be tracking him? NORAD.
NORAD stands for North American Aerospace Defense Command, an arm of the U.S. military.
If you didn’t know it already, NORAD has been tracking Santa since 1955. They launched a website in 1998. And last year NORAD began tracking usages of its website with Google Analytics. That means, for the first time in history, NORAD will be able to compare usage statistics of its website to previous years. And what is the number to beat? According to the Google Analytics Blog, 11 million visits.
If NORAD can track Santa and the usage of its website, which tells children where Santa is at any given time on Christmas Eve, don’t you think you should be tracking your stats with Google Analytics too?
