Basic Understanding
• In marketing, we have the concept of a purchase funnel. There are different stages within the funnel
that describe customer interactions. A basic purchase funnel includes the following steps:
✔ Acquisition involves building awareness and acquiring user interest
✔ Behavior is when users engage with your business
✔ Conversion is when a user becomes a customer and transacts with your business
• We can track what online behavior led to purchases and use that data to make informed decisions
about how to reach new and existing customers.
How Google Analytics work?
• Tracking a Website
• To track a website, you first have to create a Google Analytics account. Then you need to add a
small piece of Javascript tracking code to each page on your site.
• Every time a user visits a web page, the tracking code will collect anonymous information about
how that user interacted with the page.
• The tracking code could show how many users visited a page or how many users bought an item
by tracking whether they made it to the purchase confirmation page.
Javascript Tracking Code
• Establish a User ID and password at google.com/analytics
• To find the tracking ID and code snippet:
✔ Sign in to your Analytics account.
✔ Click Admin.
✔ Select an account from the menu in the ACCOUNT column.
✔ Select a property from the menu in the PROPERTY column.
✔ Under PROPERTY, click Tracking Info > Tracking Code.
• Once you have successfully installed the Analytics tracking code, it can take up to 24 hours for data
such as traffic-referral information, user characteristics, and browsing information to appear in your
reports.
