Google Analytics is a free tool that can be used to build your internet marketing business more effectively. You may have heard about Google Analytics but don’t know what it is, then this article is for you. If you know what it is, but confused on how to use it, you are at the right place. On the other hand, you may already be using Google Analytics and wish to improve your ability to use it more effectively, you will also find this article helpful. In fact, I am going to be bold and say you will find the secrets to Google Analytics revealed through the following 7 webinars I shall be sharing with you.
Your Journey Begins Here!
You will learn how to create your own Google Analytics and link it to your website. Once you complete that action, this tool will monitor activity on your website and create statistical analysis to help you get a better understanding how your website is performing.
For example, you will be able to find which posts get the most clicks. And how long does a visitor stay on your post. Where do these visitors come from? Are any of them repeat visitors? You will be able to get information on these and other useful factors about your website.
Would this kind of information help you to tweak your website so that it performs better? I would think so.

Food For Thought
Consider your Internet Marketing business is a real business and not a hobby. Your goal is to build it up so it can pay you as a minimum a living wage in commissions as a starting point.
As you develop your skills and attract more paying customers, your long term goal should be to earn enough to fund your dream lifestyle you always wanted.
Think for a moment what that lifestyle is? I bet it will include improving the quality of life for you and your family in many ways. Perhaps you want to travel more after this Pandemic ends. It may also include taking advantage of the favorable interest rates to move into a larger home.
If you have children, how about being able to afford to send them to the best schools that cater to their own dreams.
But most of all, what would it be like to work from home, or for that matter wherever you have an Internet connection? Better yet, the hours you need to spend on your business is significantly less than what you are spending in your current job.
Everything starts with a dream. Then you have to create a plan to help you realize your dream. In today’s economy where buying using computers and smart phones are the norm, doesn’t it make sense to leverage this trend for your own gain?
Your Plan
It has to include educating yourself to understand how the Internet works in this ever growing eCommerce reality. The choices are endless such as:
- Creating and selling your own products, be it digital or physical
- Signing up as an affiliate with major companies like Amazon, Walmart or thousands of others
- You have to option of signing up as an affiliate for companies that market digital products
- Or you could get involved with drop shipping.
- Perhaps you wish to offer Internet Marketing consulting services to local companies
No matter what your detailed plans are, they should include the use of Google Analytics to enhance your business. Would you like the secrets to Google Analytics revealed to you?
Whatever your Internet Marketing direction, Wealthy Affiliate can show you how to do this correctly from the ground up. No prior knowledge or experience is necessary.

Hey Edwin, thank you for your full and frank explanation of Google analytics. You have hit the nail on the head when it comes to explaining what you can do with the analysis of your sites. I set up my Google analytics quite a while ago on the two websites I own. Unfortunately, I made the mistake, that many do, by just using it as a platform to see how many hits I was getting. BIG MISTAKE. I am really not that tech savvy so found looking at all the figures on my analytics time consuming as I was more interested in creating content. WRONG again. Once I decided to analyse my hits and where they were from and which posts were the most successful I soon began creating posts around these statistics.
Well, guess what ? Suddenly I was getting a lot more interaction on my sites and then more sales !!! It just goes to show that using the data supplied really does pay off. This is also covered in the Wealthy Affiliate training that you have mentioned. Wealthy Affiliate is far the biggest and best training platform available, and they are who I have used to build my sites.
Hello David,
Thank you so much for your validation of Google Analytics based on your personal experience. I wish you continued success in your online business.
Cheers.
Edwin
Wow, I never realised what a valuable tool Google Analytics was. I’ve missed out on so much valuable data since my website was first created. I almost wish I could go back and have the analytics being recorded from the start. Thank you for this great review. I’ll be sure to pass it on to my web building friends
Hi Stevie,
Better late than never. When you create a new website, this knowledge will give you a hear start. At least you can go through these webinars and learn to use Google Analytics more effectively right away.
I wish you much success in your online business.
