Why Take this Course?
Web analytics is a necessity in digital marketing. Web analytics gives you data so you can make decisions in your digital marketing campaigns (SEO, SEM/PPC, social media, email, and so on) to increase your results. This workshop is module 3 in a three-module workshop series that shows you how to install and use Google Analytics 3.0.
In the third Google Analytics 3.0 workshop, we cover the last two major reports: Behavior and Conversions:
- The Behavior report shows you what your visitors are doing on your website. What are the entrance pages to your site? What pages do they look at? What pages do they ignore? This is all practical information to make changes to your website. You quickly see if the change was good or bad so you can make further changes. You’ll see how to select the pages to improve. By improving the bounce rate for a page, you’ll have more visitors, leads, and sales. In addition, the better the bounce rate, the higher the page will show up in Google.
- The Conversion report also gives you practical information. If a page in your conversion path is leaking too many users, you can fix that page to get the users to go to the next step in the conversion path. This increases conversions without additional marketing. You’ll also see how to set up conversion tracking and visualize the data with a conversion funnel. This is very useful with clients and decision-makers.
- Additional items about Google Analytics 3.0: Heat maps, access permissions, multiple websites in one analytics account, Google Data Studio, analytics on your mobile, and insights.
- Finally, one we’ll give you a list of the six best reports in Google Analytics 3.0.
(Can’t attend a live workshop? No problem. All workshops are recorded, and we’ll send you the recording, workbook, and any supplementary materials within a day of completion after we’ve had time to edit the recording.

Key Takeaways:
- Use heat maps to see where your visitors click on your pages.
- You can pull all of the data into one analytics report if you have several websites.
- You can flow your data into Google Data Studio to create better presentations.
- The Google Analytics app lets you use Google Universal Analytics on your iPhone or Android phone.
- How to use the Insights panel for additional business information.
- The Behavior report shows you how visitors flow through your website.
- Landing pages, the different definitions, and what it means for Google Analytics.
- Deep dive into the Bounce Rate report. See the bounce rate for a page and how to fix it. First, you can see from where the visitors came and the keywords they used, which may help you to make changes to the page, so it offers what they expected to see. Going further, you can see the page’s bounce rate over time. You can use this to make a change to the page and then see if the change improved (or hurt) the bounce rate. By testing changes, you can improve the page’s bounce rate.
- We also give you guidelines about bounce rates: good, okay, and poor.
- The Behavior report also shows two reports for the loading speed of a page. This helps you decide where to start.
- You can also see the search terms people use in your site’s search box. This helps you to improve the navigation or give you ideas for additional products.
- We look at the Conversions Report. You use the Conversions Report to track goals. You can see if a page in your conversion path is leaking too many users. By fixing that page you get the users to go to the next step in the conversion path, so you can increase conversions without additional marketing.
- You’ll see how to configure goals. Just about anything can be tracked at websites.
- Conversion can include engagement, such as the number of downloads in the last 30 days, how often a video was watched, how many used the mortgage calculator, how many reached five pages in your website, or how many spent (for example) five minutes on the site in the last 30 days.
- Conversion can include lead generation (lead gen), such as how often an information request form was submitted, the email link was clicked, or how many people subscribed to the newsletter.
- Conversion can include sales. You can track the number of purchases per quarter, the amount of revenue on average per week for the last six months, and so on.
- We will also see how to visualize the data with a conversion funnel. This clearly shows the steps that visitors take in the conversion path and where they drop out of the path. By fixing these pages, you increase your conversions without additional marketing.
- We close with a list of the six best reports in Google Analytics 3.0.
- In addition, there is a list of resources from Google, including Google’s internal information library, links, and other eBooks.

Testimonials
As the Director of Marketing for a Medical Clinic, I found this workshop to be spot on. Easy to understand and implement in my own site. Highly recommend. Great value!
This is an amazing course full of useful knowledge. It is something to get your started and something you can take along with you in your career forever.
The Google Analytics 3.0 Advanced course had a lot of useful information about generating and understanding reports. After this webinar, I will use what I learned to generate reports that will help myself and my colleagues.
Google Analytics can be overwhelming with the amount of information that is available. The DMAnc.org seminar breaks everything so easily understood by those new to Analytics but also offers enough details for those who have been using for a while.
The Google Analytics Fundamentals, Intermediate and Advanced Webinar was extremely informative. It not only set the foundation for how to use GA, but also provided some actionable insights on how to pull the data to inform better marketing decisions. I now have a more comprehensive understanding of GA and will be able to implement some of the recommendations provided by Andreas.
