Presentation Focus is 3 practical things you can do to get more from GA.
> Now used by around 300k accounts W`wide/ Recent Major update / Extendable Tracking code for custom variables/
>Now a `data framework` ie in addition to the regular interface it now has an easy to use API./
> Google looking to extend it beyond existing web site data eg adding Social Tracking, etc
> Now a group of 3rd party suppliers of plug-ins.
Advanced Segments. BEWARE Site Wide Averages.
>The purpose of GA data is to help people make better decisions re audiences, content.
> To do this site wide averages are useless actually worse as they are misleading ( see Blog Post)
> Advanced Segments are a great way to find actionable data ( Profiles less important these days)
> Default and Custom segments. So: By region/city/New/ Returning/by `engagement`/SOURCE: ads/banners/SMedia/etc CONTENT:
Lovely features such as Preview Segment and Test Segment
GA was designed to show how the effect of AdWords/Marketing.
Default Segments
Custom Segments can be easily created and tested.
Goals/Multichannel Funnels
For an ecommerce site it will be about leads/sales, etc. But for a `content site` eg BBC, Newspaper Sites.
> NB: Maximum 30 Goals per Profile.
Goals can be: URL reached/ Time on Site/ Pages Viewed/ or Events: eg form completed/downloads/Video viewed, etc
Eg Number of visitors that you send to a `partner` site.
>MultiChannel Funnels: Assisted Conversions. What channel contributed to Goals ? Not just `last click attribution`
Can be any of 3 kinds;
1. Events such as: download/ link to another site/ Sign-up /
2. Engagement: ie Time on Site/ Pages Viewed/
3. URL destination:
4: Not easy to copy Goals from PROFILE to Profile.
